I run Koni Sports and Eibach springs on mine. Love the shocks -- plenty of damping. If you switch to coilovers in the front, you can run 2.5" Eibachs up front and the stock 5" Eibach's in the back. I run 275/200 -- and I'm very pleased with the outcome. Firm, taut -- all bumps are one and done. No rear sway bar with these rates and V8 torque. Strongly recommend poly bushings in the front -- gets rid of the extra indeterminate spring rate that's built into the stock bushings. Besides, if ya'lls are like mine, the exhaust system of V8 gets in the way of tightening the rear front control bushings to torque once the car's on the ground. You can tighten them off the car with the poly bushings.
