    All-Righty then... For some reason I got the idea you were looking for airshocks.. scratch . My Bad.

    Yep, I would go for those then. Not a bad price either...

    I am running 3rd generation Chevy Van NAPA air shocks on the rear. They bolt on and work great. I think they are 1/2" shorter than 2nd generation. That said I have not had a problem.

    Does anyone know where to get drag shocks (90/10 front 50/50 rear) for these things? Right now I am at a complete loss. It has become apparent to me that not many people drag race these things.

    Thanks bob. I talked to them, as well as Lakewood, Koni, and qa1. Closest to the rear is a set from Lakewood for a Buick skylark. The fronts are another story, due to the extreme length of the extended position. I suppose I'll get the biggest size I can find and limit the travel with a cable. I'm makin this baby an 1/8th mile blaster. Here we go 4.56's and a 150 shot of the ol giggle gas!!!
