Default Shorter Dogbones

Do you guys know how the Shorter Dogbone from ZZP would work on our cars? What about their billet ones? Any reviews from the LS4 crowd?

Mel,

That is for sure the nicest LS4 engine bay I have ever seen! Are those factory coils? Looks fantastic.

I think they put the power down a little faster and I hear they are good for lowered cars.

Any more vibrations with them? Is your car lowered, Mel?
