I've seen shocks ranging from $15 to $200 apiece. I called my local Oreilly's to see what they have and they sell a Monroe Sensatrac shock for $22.99. Is this a good shock for a Pro-street car?

I have always used a good gas charged shock on the front of my pro street cars with good luck. I was more concerned with using a stock type shock as compared to like a 90-10 because you are more concerned with driveability than weight transfer in a street car.The shocks you mentioned should work fine. Just my 2 cents.
