Viking coilovers
#2
We have two customers in that have been 1.15 & 1.16 60' with the Warrior line. Granted when you purchase from us you get tech advice way after the sale, one of the advantages. We have customers send us video on a daily basis for suspension advice.
Granted we have 100's of customers in the 1.3x to 1.5x 60' with them. They work really well for the money.

If you go the Viking route OP, make sure to order from Midwest Chassis. That's where I got mine from and I couldn't be more pleased with the process. As they stated above, they will offer you tech advice when you're at the track, which is a big bonus in my book. I plan on getting some of this support this spring/summer when I compete in a few track events.

You get what you pay for when it comes to shocks that is for sure to answer your question yes in my opinion they would probably benefit going to Menscer's but how much would be hard to say. I was surprised that they where cutting those kind of short times on Vikings warrior shocks.

For the money Viking shocks are hard to beat. Like mentioned above make sure and purchase them from Midwest Chassis. The service after the sale and support is unmatched.

I did 1.52 on Bilstein shocks and Eibach lowering springs, pretty consistently. But, common sense tells you that you are nearly the limit of such a setup. I'm currently going mid 1.4s on motor but love that everything is adjustable.

Ended having to go with Viking coilovers all the way around. My budget wouldn't allow the Menscers lol. But Midwest Chasis hooked me up with a 9" and complete suspension setup

I hit 1.5s with stock shocks but need coil overs because I lost so much weight the front end sits high lol. At high speeds as you can imagine it feels floaty. Which Vikings for the front did all of you use on your street cars? I see tons of links on MWC page but unsure which one I need

This is our stud upper T-Bar lower option. Which is the most typical shock for the front.
This is our bearing upper kit T-Bar Lower. This is used with a stock style A-Arm that still uses the T-Bar at the bottom. We offer the bearing upper because it replaces the stud and rubber mount at the top and uses a bearing at the top that will have less bind.
The other options are similar but have a bearing at the bottom for our A-Arms, we do our A-Arms this way because it is less bind than a T-Bar when you use the bearing.
I have seen some aftermarket shocks pop the clips out of the T-Bar under stress.
Same goes for our rear shocks when you discuss upper and lower mount.
Anymore questions feel free to ask and like everyone mentions when you purchase shocks from us we give you a life time of tech and shock adjustments to help improve your 60' times.
