The suspension setup is forever changing... ;)
Front is ATS's "AFX" forged aluminum tall spindles with 97-05 Corvette 13" discs, SPC tubular lower arms, SPC adjustable upper arms, 700lb AFCO dirt-track springs with weight-jacks (for adjustable ride height), AFCO 1021 shocks, and the stock 15/16" sway bar.
Rear is Wolfe Racecraft double-adjustable arms with spherical heim joints in all 8 points, and AFCO shocks. Rear springs are 5.5x11 single-pigtail dirt-track springs, and I have 5 sets of those with different rates to tune it for different purposes (drag, autocross, cruising, etc...) Rear brakes are 98-02 Z28/TransAm 12" discs.
This winter's changes will include a Helwig "pro-touring" adjustable rear sway bar, a 1-1/8" front sway bar from a 70s Trans-Am, and single-adjustable Alston Vari-shocks in the rear. I have to do something with the axle too... trying to decide between rebuilding the 12-bolt, or swapping in a 9".
Drivetrain is a '95 LT1 fuel-injected 350 and 4L60e overdrive automatic out of a Caprice state-patrol car, and a 12-bolt w/4.10 posi.
Tire/wheel combo is 17x7 and 17x8 Billet Specialties w/ 235/45 and 255/45 Kumho Ecsta MX's.
