The jackstands are OFF ... OR ... AGX's are IN!!
I've finally completed the front end swap on my car and got it back on the road. Jackstands came off yesterday after being on for a whole week which is a long time considering its my daily driver.
I installed WS6 springs, KYB AGX's, and a poly bushing kit from PST, did the inner tie rods and adjusting sleeves while I was at it. Its riding a bit high right now, hopefully I indexed those springs right - I put them in just like my old ones came out - or I hope it settles down a bit in a few days. The AGX's are set at the softest rate right now since it doesn't have a true alignment, which its getting tomorrow, but they dampen very nicely and make the ride decent for what its worth with WS6 springs. I can't wait to put it through its routine tomorrow on my "proving grounds" highway - Route 21.
Thanks to everybody who gave me their input through this ordeal. Here's a couple pics for your enjoyment.

Wow, thats a lot of fender gap! I have a 92 Z28 and I just put on the Eibach Pro-Kit and KYB-GR2s. The car is perfectly level and nice and stiff. I orderd the AGX but sent them back after the upped the price after i already paid, so they were sent to me COD for the extra money, so i returned them. i must say, Im very pleased with the KYB-GR2. Many people said they are no better than stock struts, but they really are. I have about 2-2.5 inches of fender gap with the Eibach springs. They are about 3 inches shorter than the stock Z28 springs I took off
