Default What shocks to buy?

Installing a Prokit spring set on my 98 Camaro Z28. Which shocks to buy? and do I need to replace the front upper strut mount when I install the prokit? Thanks.

IMO I'd go with Koni Single Adjustable shocks (or if you want to save some cash, you can go with Bilstein revalves). Those are really the only 2 shocks that will be able to handle the increased spring rate of the Pro-Kit. You don't need to replace the front upper strut mount, you reuse them. Just watch out for the nuts on the top of the struts that hold the rubber shock tower pieces on. They get rusted into place and many times have to be snapped or ground off (that was the only real pain in the a$$ when I did my swap).
