The main problem I see with coil overs is you will likely need to remove them before making a pass down the strip to prevent binding of the rest of the rear suspension which would lead to poor traction and possibly problems keeping the truck in a straight line.

My buddy had this guy help him with his Firebird suspension.

Good luck! That's a cool project you've got there.
Thanks for the info. I've followed this guy for a while. I will contact him and Calvert.
