Thats what the shockwaves are for, 1000HP and on air so it rides like a cady and handles like a newer Camaro.

Never been an air bag fan. Dont much care for the ride and they can strand you if they fail. And I know users who have been stranded. No thanks. If you have to raise the car to drive it, whats the point? Properly sprung double adjustable coil overs are my preference. You can tune those for street driving and race track use easily. Requires more work to get the ride height as low as possible without running into ground clearance issues, but worth the extra effort.
My current project is about as low as you can be and still drive it without problems, so we went the extra mile on my exhaust to prevent any contact. My custom headers have a transition to 4" oval pipe, and we modified the morrison frame to pass this wider pipe thru the frame rails. NOTHING hangs below the frame rails. Not the headers (and they are 2.250" primary to 4.5" collector), mufflers or any pipe/clamps. Big job, but in the end it will be worth it.
