Sorry I thought I had put that info in the post. my mistake.

I'm mainly a street cruiser with the odd dragstrip trip here and there. I'd like some good handling for the freeway runs as well. There are a few vettes and imports running around the Detroit area that need to know their place.

Id start off with a complete prothane bushing kit and replace all of your 13 year-old bushings with new and better bushings

It'll take a little more than 500rwhp to hang with some of the corvettes in the Detroit area.

Steeda upper/lower rear control arms, lowering springs, caster/camber plates, sway bars, tokico d spec or koni yellow shocks/struts and subframe connectors would be a good start.

What kind of tires do you have now?

 

[Aslow2v]

First thing is first tires, roll on drag radials. List: upper and lower control arms, subframe connectors, torque arm, SWARR axle support bar, good springs if not already, shocks/struts. Need to get the power to the ground.

 

[jymboslice]

I don't think you can use the swarr bar with a torque arm.

 

[Three21]

Minimum:
Tires, LCAs, weld-in subframe connectors, weld up your torque boxes.

Then springs/shocks, C/C plates, poly motor mounts, OEM replacement rubber tranny mount.

I have TeamZ double adjustable Uppers and Lowers, great quality, but you gotta keep those aluminum bushings oiled or they get hella noisy - probably wouldn't go with these bushings on a daily driver. I made my own subframe connectors.
