Sam Straino- Help me, please
Hey guys. Plenty of threads on this topic, sorry.
I have a 2001 Z28 with the LS1 that I am looking to lower. Straino springs seem to be the preferred choice for this. I have Z06 rims that are 17x8.5" fronts and 18x9.5" rears. I am getting long tube headers and an off-road Y-pipe installed next week, so clearance is an issue. I am looking for a spring set-up (possibly shocks too, if necessary) that will give my car a nice stance, don't want too low, no overlap. Right now it sits way too high. If Straino springs are on backorder, how long will it be before I can get a set (I am willing to buy right now) and if the lead time is outrageous, what is a good substitute for the Straino's. My other thoughts were the eibach pro-kit (LT1 though) or Hotchks.
Any advice on my situation would be much appreciated.
I know you are very busy, so I appreciate the help. I have tried to call you. Your a hard man to get a hold of, lol.
Thanks,
Matt

It will be a while until I get more, looking into June. I'd be happy to discuss options with you, some are pretty decent, but some suck. I also don't do it by e-mail. Keep calling, but if you haven't left a message, you need to. The good news is that I'm busy--and I like to think that's because I spend time talking over details with folks. The bad news is that takes time to do.
