I've done a lot of research on upgrading C3 suspension. From what I understand, with all the modern goodies you can throw at our cars, as well as welding up the frame that the books say to and adding...

Everybody needs to watch this L88 video. WOW!

This is just awesome. I found it the other night on Youtube. The paint scheme is a little corny, but cool at the same time. It just doesn't get any cooler than this. Turn it up!
