Well, since Jason hasn't answered, i'll answer some of your questions johnny!
Quote: | The drop and sutch? |
1.6 front and 2.0 rear drop....these springs are really aggresive and will drop your car alot more than Eibach or Progressive. But IIRC the guy from Elmira (sorry bud I don't remember your name...Dave I think?) he installed them at the Mod Day this year... I know you were busy johnny! ...But they looked really good.
Quote: | And will the kill stock struts? |
These will DEFINATLEY kill stock struts, these will even kill KYB struts pretty quick...not to mention the pogo you will prolly have. So your only way of ensuring long life on your suspension would be to get a set of Koni's. Or from what I read KYB is developing a set of there adjustable struts for the GP...not sure which year, but the KYB AGX adjustables are on par if no better than Koni from the reveiws I have seen. |

Whoops, I was wrong, 2.0 in the front 1.6 in the back....makes the car more level and gets rid of the saggy ass look.
Well, I just went and did a little search...all the numbers I found were 2.0" front drop and 1.6" rear drop. |

Actually the one he has is WAY undersized for a 4L60-E....it's actually pretty small for a medium to heavy moded GP. The one he has is the one like I had, and it's actually designed for the police package Impala, and any W-body that does towing.
But YES he WILL need a tranny cooler, just like Brad said the added heat produced by the higher stall TC will quickly kill his tranny....and the way he drives it, he needs one more than anyone I know!
TIMMY! |
