front shock help.
I need front shocks for a 95 camaro drag car.
I want strange double adjustables but I see there are two #.
1. Which one works best?
2. What springs do I need.
95 camaro hardtop with manual windows.
Car was gutted, then rewired and has a 8 point rollbar installed. Interior was put back in. All plastic, carpet, and two plastic race seats.
9" ford rear, sfc, fiberglass bolt on cowl hood, and PA racing chromemoly front k-member, a-arms, and manual rack. Front bumper support removed also. Using old school small block and turbo 400 trans.

S-5069 will work with your stock upper perch, you'd use the SPC-300 springs. The other will use a hypercoil spring where it will not be a direct replacement.
Both are listed on our site http://www.sjmmanufacturing.com/cam_sus_lt1.html#Shocks
You may want the torington bearings as well. Give me a call if you need more help.

Progressive vs. linear, small weight differences variance in spring choice. It depends what you're looking to do and how you want to go about it.
They make a variety of designs for people who may be trying to do something different to meet their goals.
The typical setup would be what I've mentioned using the S5069 with the 300lb progressive spring...this is what most folks use.
You can choose which way you prefer. We can offer you either styles.
