Default 1967 firebird 4 link coilover suspension.

Hey guys, I'm building a 1967 firebird and would love to use a coil over link suspension in both the front and rear. I've seen several, but they appear to be too far apart in price and quality. The car will be running a LS1 engine with a 6 speed tranny from a 1998 Camaro. I'm thinking of changing the heads and cam to try to get to 425 rwhp. What suspension is out there that you guys think might work best for this setup.

Thanks,

Carlos

I chose the G-bar/Air bar with coil overs (not the air setup) for ease of install and good performance. Check out alston chassisworks or air bar for more info. The only welding required is to attach the brackets to your rear end.
