My new stance

First heres the old stance:

Thanks guys,
The springs are Hotchkiss with a 1" drop. I debated in my head for a while what to use between moog, Eibach and Hotchkiss. I went with the ones I did because I liked the stance a little better in other cars with them in. I am satisfied with them, nice balance of being low but not too low so I always ground out.
The brakes I just finished as well the are vette brakes, C4 HD brakes to be exact, 13" rotor and dual piston PBR calipers. And as you can see the rotors are crossdrilled and slotted.

Did you have to fab up the vette brakes or is it a kit?

I paid $840, that included the modified spindles, mounted hub, adapter bracket, carriers, calipers, the rotors you see and all mounting hardware. Plus the Spindles and brackets are painted. You can get it as low as $775 if you want standard rotors (not slotted or drilled). Compared to the 1LE kit or other aftermarket kits I found it by far the best bang for the buck. I apid another $100 for the Earls SS lines, so for under a grand I have great brakes. I already replaced the rear drum brakes for disk ones last year. I may upgrade them to LS1's later.
I just got the car aligned today and am braking them in, but I must say even at medium pressure they are VERY nice far better than the stock brakes, highly recommended mod if you feel like you need some more braking.
