Not 100% about the 90/10's. They don't feel like any other drag shock I've used before. I kinda think the cheap gas shocks in the front worked better?? 77 Aspen R/T 60'@1.41 10.76 @ 123.26 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eya3Ue8KoZk

A couple of Stock racers that put 15 plus years of R&D into fast F-body's found the best all around suspension setup was the Calvert rear package(mono's/bars)with Rancho 9000's and a cheap gas shock up front.

The spring pack is from a 69 GTX with the pack turned around backward to soften the rear segment and stiffen the front. I raised the front eye by flipping it upside down. 3875lbs mid 1.50 @60ft. 7429528-IMG_7825.JPG (60 downloads)

So I may just change them to an other cheaper shock and find a decent shock for the rear.. I don't think I need adjustable for it.. Just find a good drag shock for the rear. 79 Dodge Aspen 12.265 at 109.75 MPH 67 Satellite NSS/E 11.83 @ 110 1968 Plymouth Road Runner 472 Hemi 3 time MOPAR NATIONALS CHAMP '03 FWD and '06 & '09 Street.
