I'm taking care of these problems now. I decided to go with basically the Pedders formula though. I'm adding a makeshift Permagrin Kit. I got one of the last rear bars from Summit Racing and I bought some Whiteline Bushings from Phastek they (Whiteline) make the Pedders bushings. I got the front radius bushings (don't do anything for wheel hop) and the rear cradle bushings for roughly $200 shipped. There are some videos out there that Pete posted that look very similar to the performance of the Pfadt solid bushings. Also remember the 1LE comes with ZL1 trailering arms which are a substantial upgrade to the standard pieces. While all of this isn't as substantial as the Pfadt parts it's a hell of a lot cheaper.

As for the Pfadt Coil Overs I recently talked to them and they told me the Featherlight's are the way to go. The GMPP version is more "Show than Go"

The Ridetechs do look promising but somehow for a couple hundred more (once you use Camaro5 discounts most vendors offer) they give me a more warm and fuzzy feeling.

Also note the Pfadts are 6-8 weeks out. My wallet is at least that far out too though. lol

Research the two and come to your own conclusion.

Also if you read this thread it goes over the 1LE suspension in a little more detail and also has the vids I mentioned... http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=285242
