suspension work to my 1997 vette
Hello to all..Just joined!
I have a 97 vette with a fair amount of engine work. It was dyno tuned at 510 hp.
The car is fast but I am having a hard time connecting off the line. I also want to be able to control the car better (tighter).
I am looking to continue to invest in the car but not spend to to much. Can you help me with suggestion on sites or what to do to the car?
Thanks for the help!

tub it, throw some enormous tires onto a 10.5" or wider wheel (depending on what class you race i guess), see what that nets you. if you're trying to hook on a track, thats a little different than the street.

If you have run flats get rid of them in favor of a softer tire. I have Toyo Proxes T1R's and the difference between them and the Run Flats is significant.
Also may want to look into going to Z51 sway bars or Z06 sway bars. I had the base FE1 suspension on my 2000. I switched to Z06 sways and oh my god what a difference.
