Mach 1 And Bullitt Shocks

Bullitt shocks and struts are 295 and the Mach 1 struts and shocks are 179 at
http://www.speedconcepts.net/ford_racing_suspension.htm

What gives why are the Bullitt springs higher? I am going with C springs and I am trying to choose.

The Bullitt and Mach1 springs are the same. I'm pretty sure the shocks and struts are different though.

I bought C springs and Mach1 shocks/struts but haven't installed yet.

That is what I am wondering. I don't drag race or auto cross. Just want nice handling and good ride.

This has always confused me too. If you read the descriptions of the bullit shocks and struts and compare them to the Mach 1 s/s, they are the same. A Tokico representative told me they're no different than the regular Tokico s/s, but that couldv'e been .

I have Mach struts/shocks with H&R Supersports. Great ride/handling on a budget. Can't beat it.

I think I am going with the Mach 1 shocks and struts. If they ride good with H&R then they should be alright with the C springs.
