Question What Shocks should I use?

Hello,
Iam preparing the next phase of my '70 Cuda, but what kind of shocks should I use (Gas/air/hydro.) adjusting or non? The car will have a BEEFY 318 and I am NOT going original. Anyone have a thought?
Thank you!
Scott

Edelbrock Performer IAS Shocks = $75.00 each

Really good shocks a little dare but work and look good!, They are charged with high-pressure gas.

Default KYB working great so far

Hey irtired,
Yea, I went with the KYB simply because I wanted to put that extra 150 bones into other things. I was told the Edelbrock shocks are a little better, but I've got to say the KYB's are good shock especially for the money. MY ride feels nice and tight since I put them on. I ordered mine throught PST, so I think that even shipping was free. I've got them on my '71 Charger w/383. I'd be interested to know if anyone out there has used both types and has an opinion on this.
Ben
