Shocks for dragracing

[forcefed3.8's]

I am rebuilding the front end of my car, and figured new shocks are in order. I have been running the same yellow Monroes since 1997. Now that the car is getting faster, and I am running radials, I am wondering what shocks to get. The car hooked great when running high 10's with 60's in the mid to high 1.4's on 275/60's. Last year I was running a tight converter, so the car left soft. I plan on leaving harder hopefully in the 1.3's on a 325/50. Now I don't want to break the bank. Would Competition Engineering adjustables be good at this level or should I save for something better? I plan on getting an HR bar as well. Right now I have an ATR bar and an air bag. Street comfort is little concern, I can adjust.

D/a's and the HR bar.. Dump the Atr, air bag. If you can swing it, d/a's in the rear, too!
I did a race alignment, Moroso BBC ft springs, stock rears, HR, Hals all 4....Would do it again.

You can adjust compression and rebound separately.

I'm planning on buying a set of strange (as of now...) singles for the front and a set of D/A for the rear... expensive but worth it

Yep, no comparison for drag racing!
