Lakewood Shocks on an 03?

Lakewood Shocks on an 03?
Thinking about doing drag suspension setup. I've been searching on Summit and it says that the Lakewood shock only fit 99-02 GTs. Will they still work on an 03? I was thinking of doing: subframe connectors, summit UCA/LCA, lakewood 50/50 and what should I do in the front? Lakewood 90/10 or 70/30? what's the difference?
Also, is there a sutup that is adjustable for drag racing and handling? I'm mostly concerned with Drag but if I could have both that would be B.A.
Mostly just wanted to know about the lakewoods and input is welcome. I want a good suspension setup to bring my 60's down. My best 60' to date is 1.901 with stock suspension and DRs.

I havent put them in yet but I got the Strange 10-way adjustable shocks, all 4. I will have them stiffer when on the street and at the track loosen them up for weight transfer. Also foxbody 4cyl front springs cut 1/2 coil? Possibly going to remove the swaybar and get a panhard bar.
Ive already got SFC's, 10.5" MT's, upper and lower control arms in. My best times with those in my sig.

Those lakewoods will be great for the track, but as far as I know they dont make an adjustable shock. Qa1 or strange or kyb has adjustables.
I would go with adjustables up front if you want to retain some handling. 70/30's won't handle too bad, but won't do as good at the track as 90/10. 90/10's wont be a street friendly as the 70/30.

Thanks for the replies. Anybody have suggestions for the best places to buy? I've just been searching on summit where else is good? I usually get stuff from AM but they don't have a whole lot of suspension stuff.

Also, The Strange shocks/ struts are showing up as only fitting a 99-02 as well. Who has these on an 03/04?
