Hotchkis or Bilstein shocks

blu,
putting down good times on a smooth track is not the same as overall ride quality on REAL roads.

Sorry, a BASE V6 Mustang with IRS is far better overall than the best mopar suspension updated from the 60's that has had a gazillion dollars thrown at it to improve it. That's pretty much a fact.

So if we really want to compare apples to apples on a track, V8 pony to V8 pony...then it's game over. That's proven as well. And yeah, I wish that was not the case, but it is.

At one time you could build something old that could run with the new cars but in the last few years it is getting harder to be competitive with any of the modern muscle cars. If the car will never see a race track you don't need to get crazy to get it to drive decent, if it was my car I would do the PST 1.03 bars, Bilstein shocks, sway bar, good steering box and decent alignment and you will have a car that is fun rail around in traffic without braking the bank.
