Re: Autocrossing your chevy truck....who wants to?

Well I'm interested. Just picked up my new project, though it may be awhile before I start on it and get it to where I'm happy with it, nothing wrong with starting to map out the direction I wanna go. It will be a short box and LS power with auto or manual. Want the nostalgic looking truck with a drop similar to my Blue 72 with probably 18's all the way around. I want it to also be a comfortable driver that won't jar your fillings out of your head. There's a great thread on handling in the suspension section that has lots of good info. I'd love to be able to drop the coin for the new Hotchkis kit, but not sure that will be a reality.......what's the best "bang for your buck" to get this thing to handle as well as it can?
