Not if you want a track car, and to my knowledge there's not a whole lot of "extra" bracing in the SSs...the sways won't be much effected, because for a track-focused car they'll need to be stiffer (aka thicker)...
200lbs is darn near impossible to do at any reasonable price and STILL pass internal validation tests.

Yes for that kind of performance at $40K it's bit me good, but I'm a Camaro guy. So the only fix is a Boss competitor. I'll call it a Uh um Z28!
