Sooo, as the impala project stalls once again due to my inability to do anything, I turn towards the vette again.
I'm looking into purchasing some z51 shocks (not a z51 car) to stiffen the ride. Unfortunately the base suspension is softer and on one higher speed sweeking bump, I put the rear tire into the right rear quarter... both cracking it ans separating the bond.... not a big deal, as I plan to body work it back together before I have the car wrapped...
I believe the z51 shocks (from what I've read and my experience from the old vette which was a z51), should be much more aggressive and keep the quarters off of the tires in the future if I stay with the same set up with the flares. (Was thinking of putting the camaros old ddc5 wheels om the car and slamming it without spacers as another option). Either way, the more aggressive shocks should be good for either set up...
Thats it for now... once I get the susp figured out... ill continue to put miles on it the way it is... till the Impala is done... whenever that will be... at which point I can swap the vette for the impala to have the heads and cam from the impala installed, and have a chip burned to accommodate that...

Well absolutely bored sitting at home... so why not spend money.
Ordered the 1" lowering kit... and also some viking double adjustable rear shocks to stiffen the ride (since I bottomed out and put a wheel into the quarter panel when I had the spacers on, NO BUENO).
THATS all for now... lol

Well we made it 2 years... I decided it was time to unload her because at this point I life, with a 6 year old... all the toys should at least have a rear seat.
Still a low mileage 1993 vette, she sold quick (less than 5 hrs after posting, she was on her way to NC).
BUT... as most of you know. More toys to come.
