Lowering springs with LS1....

So I'm putting an LS1 and tubular K member in my car. I want to go with the eibach pro kit, but my question is, Will it lower the car correctly since I'm going to be losing all that weight compared to a stock setup car? Just don't want to get them to find out that it doesnt lower the front end enough. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

Also, Sway Bars? Which ones would you guys recommend?

Re: Lowering springs with LS1....

alotta people like me install the prokit to see little to no drop due to sagging springs, i doubt you would drtop any,more than 1/2" i think the kit left me round 26.5" up front, you would probably be 1/2" higher than that, i trimmed my springs, which you could do aswell it will stiffen them up and with the 36mm front swaybar you would prob be good with a 23mm bar out back, that is if you trim off 1/2-2/3 coils and drop the front to around 26"
