It is interesting that the MR part was cut out of my original question...maybe that was not accounted for in this project....?

In the multiple resources that I have researched and in speaking with several Chevrolet engineers @ SEMA there will be a point of lowering that the MR will not function as intended. They could not tell me what point that is, but I was advised jokingly by one of them that if I "slammed" an MR suspension it would be pretty much worthless in terms of function. I figure if anyone went low enough they are not really caring about the performance of their MR. For me personally, I am in the gray area, where I do track my cars and fully intend to track my new ZL1, but at the same time will be driving this to work and around town as well and am not really happy with the excessive wheel gap (personal preference, everyone is entitled to their own thoughts, of course)...so I am walking that line...carefully. Most cars that I have, I would just modify to a coilover suspension and not worry about it, but since I am paying for that MR technology and it is so good already, I really don't want to throw that away.
