Contact Eric at MWC, his prices were lower than the competition.

My car this year I would imagine will be in the 450 rwhp range. I'm going FI next winter though, and I fully intend on running the vikings. They're definitely quality.

Absolutely. Viking has been around primarily in the circle and dirt track racing arenas for years and is now stepping into the street car world. Their products are excellent quality with attractive pricing. We have become a dealer for them and have been recommending them more lately as we have seen great success with them. Give me a call and I can price you out some.

Gotcha handled!

The Viking shocks have proven to be great performers and are probably the best bang for the buck. If you have any sort of streetable car then there should be no problems with the power range you are in. A 2 year warranty, high quality, and 18 position external double adjustable valving make the Viking shock very attractive!

MWC has the highest quality parts and the guaranteed lowest prices on these shocks and just about everything else for your f-body. Give us a call!

We are also a dealer for Viking and have their products on most of our house cars. The damping range is good for streetable cars regardless of hp. As shaft velocity increases past 12 inches/second you may need something else (like on a 1.2s 60ft car) but for the most the Viking is pretty sweet.
