Suspension Upgrade
I have a 89 RS 5-speed with a new 30 over 350. I want to upgrade the suspension. Anyone have any ideas? Also going to add vortec heads and larger cam. Any advice with this upgrade would be appreciated.

Re: Suspension Upgrade
a set of good tires, better shocks and struts, possibly springs. Then subframe connectors.

Re: Suspension Upgrade
basically. Subframe connectors are huge. And with all that power your going to have major wheel hop. So on the rear end i would install tubular lower control arms for sure. See how the hop is. you might need to install lower control arm relocation brackets also.

If you don't have it, wonderbar - RS didn't come with them and they really make a huge difference on the frontend.
