I am going to coil overs soon but I currently use Comp Engineering 3 way adjustable (set at 90/10) shocks from a 62-67 Nova. I put a shock extender on it because its a tad too short but it does the job. at the strip i crank the torsions all the way down so the front is sitting on the rubber stoppers. that way there is no resistance from the torsion bar when the front suspension needs to travel/extend.
