I will mainly use it to cruise and then hit the strip 5-6 times a year

Current shocks: Sears Steadyriders

Future shocks: Edelbrock IAS

Toxic shocks: Drag shocks on the street

I recommend the edelbrocks. They are quite difficult to get on on the front, those rubber (poly) bushings they give you up front so so thick it wasn't easy to get that top nut started. But man is it great for crusing around. My car is a strickly daily driver and i drive my car pretty hard.

I had 90-10's and 50-50s with a "drag launch kit" on my supercharged fox body mustang... I think I found it easier to steer my buddies old 19 foot twin turbo 502 FLAT BOTTOM boat across the lake than try to do any kind of turns at speed in that stang...
