Default Having problems hooking up! need new springs/shocks!

I have eibach lowering springs and blistien shocks that came with the car when i bought it, I don't know the specs on them. I have a 12 bolt and i can't get my 60' below a 2.1! The suspension is set up for handling not drag. I'm looking for more drivable street/strip suspension. I need help on a spring/shock set up and also i'm thinking of getting some LCA Relocation brackets because the car is lowered.. Do those help with traction? thanks

I know that LCA helped. Never tried the relocation brackets but I have a pair. My car had LE1. This gave me the same problem. I don't remember what the specs on those are. Maybe somewhere around 350 lb/in? 375 lb/in? They were stiff as hell.

What I did was get adjustable shocks all the way around and 275 springs in the front. I left the back springs stock. Car hooks better now. Maybe if you followed a similar path you could have a suspension that was decent on the street and good for the track.
