"Road cars work best with lever shocks"

Hell...track cars work best with lever shocks!! They may be "adjusted"
but they're levers, nevertheless.

My BE came with tubes. They were the
original ones that came with the Wheelrite
kit the PO installed on the car when he
restored it....and they were terrible! Way
to stiff, especially on rebound and most
especially with 70's on 5.5 rims! 

A set of GasAdjust's softer Corvette
K2R's work ok but, had the car come with
levers, it would today be sporting an
upgraded version of Pete's "better then new" properly overhauled
rebuilts.

For Jim and anyone else interested, see
how Pete does it at:

......under "tech" articles.
