Whats the best bang for the buck for dragracing shock for a C5. I have the Z-51 package now but want to get the right setup for the track. Where can I get these shocks and how hard are they to install?

Save your money.

Shocks are very easy to install.

Even I can do it.

I have Hal 12 setting adjustables and found that my 60 is NO better than with my base shocks that came with the car. Your Z51 might be a little tight so if you can downgrade, that might work.

Another thing you might want to try and its "FREE" try disconnecting & removing the front sway bar.. it will loosen the front end & help transfer weight to the rear.. as for handling on the street, I cant even feel the difference.. its a 10 min job on a C4 .. I'm not sure on a C5 but would think its pretty easy..

Anyone else do this. Should I just take it off completely?
