I put in the NOS C body air shocks I had but one began leaking - I guessed it is a blown seal. To be honest i'm not that interested in figuring it out - can someone recommend shocks that will work well with the ss springs. I like a car that sits a little high anyway.

I'm running the Rancho 9000 XL II adjustable shocks on my Savoy and I love them. You can set them on #7-9 for racing then back them down to #1 or 2 to a smooth easy cruise down the highway Gus

I like a car that sits a little high anyway. i used these in my 69 RR with re-arched SS springs. i too like my car a little higher in the back. i had issues with tires rubbing when i go around corners and these helped. about 1/2 inch extra lift which will probably settle out but they are stiff enough to keep the roll under control. http://www.manciniracing.com/kybgash.html

I just run the MP longer ext shocks which I believe are just C-body shocks. Ron
