The 125's will work well for you at that weight.

imo strange has been great on my car and some other cars i have helped set up for radials and offers free stiffer valving at no extra cost for cars over a 1000 hp if you run a slick shocks do not need to be as good

Did you do your home work and measure the length required for your car???? I would not just go with there recommended shock length, Take the time and measure.

We run Strange DA on the rear of the heads up car. They do have their Pro Mod valving in them too. Been great for us and we are handcuffed by running a very short shock because of the body style of the car.

As for spring rate you just need enough spring to hold the car up with the shock at ride height.

Hood scoop or no? Fuel pressure on big end? RPM where it is occuring? More info on the combo and whats going on up top will help.
