I learned something about the shocks on a Healey during Martin Jansen's
Jule frame tech session at the Conclave. The Armstrong 50/50 rate and
the is logically going to be harder on the frame than the Bilstein 30(?)
jounce rate. I assume the Koni's are also 50/50. Evidence of frame
weakening is buckling a few inches forward of the toe boards on the
sixes. Of course 50/50 was standard practice for the time.
