Default Adjustible Shocks - Strip and Street

What are the best adjustible shocks for the stip/street. I want them to ride pretty good for daily driving but be able to adjust them for the strip. What about the Hals. If I run the hals do I get rid of my stock springs, because the HALs look like coil overs on the web site I was at. But it didnt actuall show the springs on the shocks.

There is a way you can run the stock springs on the front, there needs to be a slight modification though...otherwise you can run the stock springs in the rear just fine, the coil overs in the front aren't too bad, I might have to get rid of mine do to the new addition of my upcoming iron block..

The HAL's are great shocks though...1-12 adjustable....they are great for whatever you want to do w/them..
