Either would benefit you. I prefer shocks, which would let you hopefully leave harder, which would net a better ET imo

He went back and found his info and they are 3.75s, we put in that they were 3.95s so now I've got to get that redone.
M/T st streets 275/50 15s , it runs 7.7s on motor and 7.0s on bottle. With a loose converter I've gotten 7.4 spinning with nittos. I had he converter tightened up some so when on nitrous it want blow thru the converter.

Shocks for sure. For the cost you will get no better performance and consistency. Give me a call... I have the guaranteed best prices and the right parts for what you are wanting to accomplish, and I can also help you with your setup from my years of on track and street experience.
