Default Eibach prokit vs. Edelbrock prokit

What is the difference between the Eibach prokit and the Edelbrock prokit?
The Edelbrock springs are made by Eibach but does not give spring rates or the amount of the drop. If anyone knows them or has any experience with them please post up.

Not custom springs. Same as Pro-kits.... the only catch is, which Pro-kits are they? And frankly, they cost more from Edelbrock usually.

There are so many springs out there, maybe another one would suit your use better. I know I got so fed up with springs that were close to what I needed, but not just right that I had my own 1.25" lowering springs made up to my own specs and managed to save about 13 pounds per set vs. most other too.

Sam, what do you think of the edelbrock shocks themselves? If they are crap could you point me in the right direction. My stock shocks are shot so I am going to replace them and I might as well lower it while I am there. But there are so many damn springs out there I have no idea what I want. I have narrowed it down to hotchkis, eibach, edelbrock, and yours. Could I get the specs on your springs.

Ok, happy to help. The spring info is out and about, but I'd be happy to give you more details. Though considering you'd like that info and we need to discuss shocks, I have to ask you to call me @ 814-849-3450. I can't give any kind of detailed answers or even really make a good recommendation without speaking to you--unless you'd like me to guess.

Again, Edelbrock *ARE* Eibach, nothing different. I sell all of the springs you mention, and while a sale is a sale, it's more important to me to make sure you get a proper setup because happy people return as customers.
