Damn I gotta get some better software. What did you do to drop your front end? Are you going to do the rear?

I used springs off a fox 4 cyl for the front and yeah im plannin to drop the rear. I got fox v8s for those. Ive been told its good for weight transfer and gives you a good drop also. Ill try and get better pics for you guys soon.

Re: Re: how much slower is the 5.0 then the camaro LT1

Oh and these springs definitely arent for the autocrossin type

I got my front sway bar off and im planning to get some 90/10 struts to get the full effect from these springs

I need some stickier tires, everytime I try to launch my car it keeps going sideways and just burnin all the way through first

Re: how much slower is the 5.0 then the camaro LT1

I would stay away from the 90/10's. I have 70/30 and they make the car float a lot at high speeds and over bumps the car pulls side to side. Granted they do do what they are ment to do, just not the most comfortable ride. If you got the cash go with Tokico 5 way's, so you can tailor your shocks and struts to suit either street or strip.

I was debating 70/30s cause ive been told that 90/10s can hurt performance if you dont have the power to keep the front lifted up.

Re: how much slower is the 5.0 then the camaro LT1

If I were to do it again, I would not have bought the Lakewoods and spent the extra cash on the 5 way's.

Re: how much slower is the 5.0 then the camaro LT1

i think the LT1 will be faster stock for stock, but the mustang can be made faster easier and cheaper.. Fuck F-bodies, they suck.. get a stang and get laid more often lol
