Bilstein Shocks?

I have Hotchkiss springs, actually their entire system, on my 69 Dart. I stayed with the KYBs I had on there already because I didn't want to spend another $400 at this time.
The KTB's are VERY stiff and were so before I put the new suspension on. I have no idea if the Bilstiens make the ride any softer, I kind of doubt that because Hotchkiss is all about handling and I wouldn't think they would advocate a soft shock after stiffening the suspension, then again I am not an engineer so what do I know?
