I am getting ready to put tires, shocks, struts, & springs on my car. (1989 5.7 GTA) I want good quality, but not the most expensive ones on the market. How are the AC Delco's? Just wanted some opinions. I am sure some of you have changed these parts on your cars.
Thanks
Mike

i put the monroe sensatracs on mycar. work great. i've gotten 2.005 60' times at the track. as far as the springs, try for the WS6 springs for stock height. 1" lower try Eibach.
