New Springs and Shocks, LSx ready?

Hey everybody, I was wondering, what shocks and springs would be best to get if I want to make my Camaro ready for an LSx swap? Are there springs that will be okay for now with the 2.8L V6 and later optimal for when I did the swap? I'd rather only invest in them once, you see, and get the best right away as long as it's not ridiculously expensive. Thanks in advance for your advice, guys.

What will you do with the car? Street, drag, autoX, road race?

Street mostly, as it'll be a semi-daily driver, but wouldn't mind to win a drag race occasionally and proper turning is pretty important too.. mostly just street though.

Search on the springs but, some sway bars and KYB AGX struts and shocks, i hear they adjust well for all the uses your looking to do. I have koni yellows and love them but i don't think they'd be good on a drag car. There is TONS of info on the eibach springs in v6 cars and many others you can search and read to know exactly what will happen when you put them in and i recall reading some threads on how the LS sat on the eibachs and what they did to get their desired ride height.

You many have to read 50 threads that don't help to find the few that tell you exactly what your looking for but i know its on here. I've read them myself.
