k guys i picked up an 85 camaro with no motor or trans i have plans on making about 400-500 rwhp my question is, would it be beneficial to run adjustable panhard and LCA's or would just regular boxed ones be sufficient?, also what brands have had the best bang for the buck i'l looking into lakewood stuff right now,

LCA's: 87.99
panhard: 92.99

also are the 90/10 and 50/50 drag shocks any good on 3rd gen f-bodies or should i got with some qa1 or tokico's?

keep in mind this car is mostly drag but street leagal, may get 20 miles weekley on street (weekends) so i'm not worried about street performance would coil-overs be my best bet maybe? just give me some info or some opinion/experiences with the stuff

can't think of any time adjustable wouldn't be better for your application.

for the best in straightline traction, i would go with the 90/10 50/50 shocks, if you you want it to remain a little more streetable, you might go 70/30 up front.

i am with ede, for your car, i dont' see why you wouldn't go adjustable, it will allow you to fine tune everything.

i'll just spend the extra 60 bucks and get the adjustable lca's, i'll probably just get a solid panhard tho, this car won't see much street driving, i'm just using it for street true radial class and maybe a cruise or 2 on the weekends thanks a bunch guys

id go the other way and get the adjustible panhard instead IF you intend to put wider tires on it... this way, even if the offset makes them close to the inside or outside, they'll still fit.
