I have a 67 Chevelle SS (currently with a 454 with iron heads.....plan to switch to aluminum in a year or two) and need assistance. I have rebuilt the front suspension and plan to upgrade the springs and shocks and such. I am running big and littles on it right now (tires are 295x15's on back with 195x15 in front), but plan to put a little wider meat on the front. I had thought of buying the Hotchkis TVS until I read some of the talk of the aftermarket poly bushings and control arms causing binding probs. I want a good handling car, but want to retain a decent ride too. So, without further ado, I want suggestions on the following suspension pieces:

Springs
Shocks
Upper and lower control arms
Sway bars (size and brand)
Any other parts?

I wouldn't mind lowering it a LITTLE, but don't want a ground scraper either. Thanks for reading and look forward to your suggestions.
