Hey guys,
I'm looking into replacing my shocks/struts and was wondering what everyone suggests for a street/strip car...(I'm want a suspension that will work with 500 HP or so)...I'm definitely going with M/M C/C plates, and was looking at the Strange 10 way adjustable shocks/struts...I want to run a coilover setup in the front, so with these parts which one would be best?...any opinions or suggestions are greatly appreciated...thanx

I have Eibach drag springs and Strange 10 ways! The shock and struts are good. When the fronts are at there stiffest, it compares to the factory struts!

Shocks, Struts, C/C Plates

First of all do not buy a set of C/C plates with rubber/poly bushings. They will not work with a coil over conv. kit. My suggestion to you is to talk to Mark or Matt at Racecraft 708-293-1885. They will set you up with Strange shocks and struts and get you the correct spring rates for your car with a coil over conversion kit. These guys are the best in the business.
