Honestly I'm not sure yet... Not the most scientific, but here's what I did;.
With the stock springs installed, the shocks removed, and the drivetrain in place, I simply used my arms and bounced the front end pushing down on the core support. It was relatively easy with the stock springs to really getting it hopping. I removed the stockers for a set of ece 2" drop coils for a big block and performed the same test. It took slightly more effort to get the same effect, but to my surprise still was pretty easy to bounce around. At this point it became obvious that I'm more than likely going to want a sway bar on the front. I removed the ece coils and added the cpp 3" coils and performed the same test. Again the amount of effort to bounce the truck as I did previously was only slightly increased, but to the point that I felt it should be for a big block. All in all, I think adding a sway bar and the right shock for my application will produce a decent ride given the amount of drop.
