One thing to think about before lowering is if you ever plan to run longtube headers. That might cause you problems if you go too low. As for improved handling, you don't need to go lower to get better handling. Just look at how much better(and stiffer) the SS cars are compared to a stock Z28. I just put the Pacesetter longtube headers on and it looks like they have a lot of clearance so I don't think they would be too much of a problem on a lowered car. But the number of speed bumps and parking lot curbs I have to deal with, it won't happen with my car.
