anyone w/ coilovers?

Just wondering if anyone is running any kind of coilover setup on their c10, if so how does it perform? I am looking for something that will allow my 71 lwb to handle like its on rails. My truck has trailing arms which i like, but some goober cut the original springs front and rear to lower it the stance is great but handles like @#$%. i would appreiciate any input or pics.
