Will KYB GR-2 shocks and struts make my iroc ride better than with the Monroe Sense-a-trac (sp?) that i have on now? Differences?

It depends on what you mean by "ride better". If you mean softer, I don't think you will find a softer strut than the monroe's.

350 with stealth intake, holley carb, 470 lift cam. 700r4 with .5 boost valve, vette servo, tci lock-up kit, B&M megashifter. Richmond 3.73 gears, powertrax locker, timkin bearings, synthetic lube. Custom 3 inch single into 2 2.5 pipes. 1 1/2 drop springs, 1 5/16 solid front sway bar, 1 inch rear bar, custom subframe connectors, custom LCA relocation brackets. Kobel ground FX, currant red metallic paint. Lots of other stuff...

Guess i should have been more clear on what i want to expect. My monroes don't have very good weight transfer. I heard KYB has shocks that would help with my problem until i can actually get my suspension parts in.
