I Don't think I'm looking for lowering, at least not yet. It is a daily driver when I'm in town, picking up daughters from school/ light duty at places like Home Depot. I tricked out my '78 Trans Am back when it was new, but I'm not looking to go all the way back to my past..... and drag my belly over speed bumps, just hoping to get a bit more precision from the suspension. I have high hopes for the alignment.
If you want it to roll less then go for the sway bars! They'll do more for that then the max brace and for less. These cars can be lowered an inch and not drag a** over anything. it's the plus side of those 20" wheels.

I'm not necessarily talking roll, I'm talking roll-in (rate)/feel. But the two are related to some degree.

Well I would still recomend the sways. Have you looked into some bushings upgrades? I haven't done any yet but plan on it because I have heard from a lot of people that it improves the feel/ feedback from the car during cornering and even adresses some on center steering feel. If you spend some time in the suspension sub forum you won't see very many people getting full chassis braces because they just aren't neccasary.
