Here we go.

I've been redirected here by another member.

I have a 72 Chevelle with a 350/th 350 that I just bought some 6 months ago. My car has had its front coils cut by the previous owner for a certain look he wanted.

I would rather not have this look anymore and ask for suggestions on what coils/suspensions to look into have my car handle well and look good (lowered). I am not a racer, or am I going to do so in the future. I have somewhat of a budget. But I am open to all suggestion on suspension, and or coils at this moment...hey, I may save up for the right package if I have to.

f.y.i., I am not upgrading to a BBC in the future.

Go look at the Hotchkis site, they have a few different packages. Or if you just want to replace the front and rear coils, Moog is a good place.

I have Moog lowering coils with the Hotchkis rear trailing arms and sway bars. The car doesnt handle like a tanker anymore.

Edelbrock IAS are a good shock and they are affordable. I use bilsteins with eibach, but they are pricey. A lot of guys like the hotchkis though.
