Re: Springs If you want the rear end centered you will have to buy an adjustable panhard rod to recenter the rear end. Lowering the car ~2 inches isn't good for drag racing. You can get by without buying shocks but for the best results you'll want to get a matched set of shocks.
SLP's Eibach's might be worth considering. They will lower the car ~1 inch. SLP also has a set of matched Bilsteins. This isn't going to help your 60ft times any even with relocation brackets to lower the LCA back into position.

Re: Springs You could always get a set of V6 springs. They lower like .5 0r a little more and they are good for weight transfer. Can get them real cheap at Junk yards.

Re: Springs I have the Eibach Pro Kit springs along with re-valved Bilsteins shocks, BMR adjustable panhard rod, BMR relocation brackets(bolt in). This is a very good setup.
