Weight jacks

Hi I have an '86 TA that I've been doing a lot of work on. It now has an LS1/ T56 and Chev's rear end out of an '02 Camaro SS installed and I need to do a few final things to get it on the road. I've noticed that because of the lighter motor the front end is sitting higher than original so I've been talking to Hawks Performance about that and they suggested Weight Jacks. I checked out UMI's set and also went to Ground Control and checked out their set after reading about them online. Both suggested 850 lb fronts and 175-180 lb rears. I was curious what the experiences are between the two from those of you who have gone this route. Perhaps there are other companies supplying this as well but this is what I've found so far that is made specifically for Third Gens (UMI's set is more expensive than GC so I'm asking is more better?) Neither set has shocks included, I will be upgrading the shocks next year (Budget)

Thanks
