Here's the items I have currently or are already on the way:

BMR Tubular LCA's with poly bushings
BMR Radiator Support/FSB Delete
BMR LCA Relocation Brackets
M&H Racemaster Drag Radials

My tax return will be arriving shortly.  I plan on spending around $1500 or so on the suspension. 

I know that I want D-Specs.  I want to lower the car, and would like the lower the back slightly more than the front.  However, I want to have the best possible setup for the drag strip.  It's a daily driver during the spring/summer/fall, but performance at the track is most important.  As long as it doesn't feel like my car is falling apart on the street, I'm ok.

So I need to know what springs you would recommend for this application, and what other mods you would recommend.  I figure D-Specs and springs take roughly have the money, so that leaves about $750 or so left.  If I get the BMR K member, is that streetable?  And if so, would the CHE k member brace with torque limiters be of any use?

Thanks!

I don't suggest drag springs for a daily driver..... drag springs are very tall, and have soft spring ratings. Your car will be "floaty" for daily driving.

I would suggest just a lower, progressive rate spring if it is still a daily driver.

Some lower spring rate springs would be the Eibach Pro-Kit Springs, H&R Sport Springs, or the StangSuspension Series I springs. All three of these spring choices have a progressive rate design.  The choice would depend on what kind of drop you'd like to acheive.

For a daily driver, the mods you're doing in addition to the springs (control arms, relocation brackets etc.) and the addition of shocks, better tires, etc. will make a much larger difference at the drag strip!

Sincerely,

Also, I saw you posted on another thread about greasing your bushings on the BMR arms.

We sell the Prothane grease gun tubes of grease. Here is a link http://www.stangsuspension.com/store/comersus_viewitem.asp?idproduct=375

Well, I finally got most of my parts installed that I ordered from you guys.  (stupid winter)  I'll make a new post when I get my wheels/tires on next week, but here's a teaser pic with my drag wheels/tires.  You guys were a real pleasure to do business with.  Shipping was fast, you guys were informational, and the prices are great.
