I have a 67 Camaro and Im wanting to upgrade the suspension and drivetrain with the outcome being a car thats ride and drive are comparible to my new Mercedes C63 AMG Sedan. I plan on putting and LS2 or LS3 with a 6L80e trans. It wont be a track car, just a weekend cruiser so my main focus is driveability and comfort. Can I get great ride quality with coil overs or would air ride be better? Any suggestions on what front/rear suspension set ups yield the best ride? Thanks

The short answer is yes you can. The real question is how much are you willing to spend or modify to get there?

I have the DSE front sub and the Quadrlink in my 69 Camaro. The feel and ride quality is very similar to the 08 M5 I owned and the 2012 550i MSport I drive now.

My suspension budget is 8-10k....prefer to be aroubd 8 but would go as high as 10k.

We just finished up another 69 with our Track Time sub frame and rear suspension, it has an ls3 t56 nice 3" exhaust with quiet mufflers, and good Recaro seats, lots of Dynamat, I have to say it rides AWESOME!! The price for the parts is right in your budget. There are definitely other factors that go into what your trying to accomplish other than the suspension.
Feel free to call me with your questions.
