You can purchase here, read the information on them on this page, check out the data.

Have not ordered yet, still trying to figure out my plan of attack! What springs are you running? AFE? I sure do like the drop those give. So were you testing for YYZ? Did you ever track run them?

i had the afe springs on with no mag ride and then switched over to the yyz springs and love them. No track days yet but i did do an auto x day and also some street/spirited driving and so far so good! just waiting on the new bilstein matching shocks to come out also and we should have the magic ticket

Do you have any pics of your car with the yyz springs on? The Powell site,crate engine,or wild hammer don’t have very good pics.
Thanks

GM performance suspension with shocks and springs or the yyz springs? Is the $1,000 price difference worth it?

Yes, you get 3/4" drop and shocks/struts that match and they work real well. Unlike many A/M rear springs & stock shocks, there is no bounce.

Aren’t the GM ones non-progressive? I think that is a deal breaker IMO. Looks like the YYZ are the only ones that seem to have done their homework in that regard. Love the idea of stock ride quality, not too stiff rears for a great launch, and spring rates that rise with handling load. Progressive is the only way to get that in my humble opinion.
