well thanks for all the opinions.

Air bags are just fine on a truck, hell the big rigs use them. I'm thinking I'm gonna go with the hotchkis setup though, and if the front sits too high w/ the ls1 then I can raise the back a little if needed. Or I'll have to check and see if a V6 spring would be better.

Does anyone know the weight difference between a stock v8 and the ls1?
