Yep, otherwise known as an Emminger report. Cool stuff. You can still get them from Kevin Marti. I highly recommend it for those of you who haven't got one.

Brian, what would you recommend for fronts with the big block (street or sport)?

I bought them from Shawn at Street or Track. Give him a shout - he's super helpful.

Actually, I don't want the high pressure KYB Gas-A-Justs.  I've used them once on another vehicle in the past and didn't like them.  I was hoping these Scott Drake shocks were not as highly pressurized as the KYB's.  The shocks currently on the car I purchased back in about 1998 and they are the 3-way adjustable Gabriel Striders.  One of them will not adjust for some reason.  Even though it ratchets like it's adjusting, it seems to be stuck in the softest setting.  Since those are no longer made, I need 4 shocks.  There doesn't seem to be many options for lower cost shocks that are still better than an OEM replacement.  I have found Koni's street shocks for $65 each at Summit Racing.  Those Koni's might be my best choice, I don't know yet. 

Bilisteins all the way. I got the on my Mach and I love them. You can order them in street or sport valving.I got sport valving. My car handles great, firm but not bone jarring. I replaced all four of the no name brand shocks that were on my car for 23 yrs. But in all fairness I only drive the car in the summer and on nice sunny days.

I have the Koni Strt's and very happy with them over my monroe's. I got them off amazon for $45 each. dont think you'll be disappointed at all.
