I agree with Dlt76028, but I'd check out a level drop first, and see how you like that to start, and that would only entail pulling the blocks out in the back. I know when I had a level drop on my 02 ECSB the handling was a lot better.

It would be easier, cheaper, and just as effective to just de-crank the torsion bars.
