Shocks Compression/ Rebound values

Does anyone know the compression/rebound values for both ends of a GT40, Kit or otherwise. I have found a source for some $125 aluminum coilovers and need to know if any of the avalible sizes will work. While you're at it, if you should have stroke travel, compressed lenght, and extended lenght I won't have to take mine off and measure them.

thanks guys, I drove mine over 20-30mph sunday for the first time, goes like hell! I guess I better aline it. Got the doors left to do and its off to the paint/body shop.

Re: Shocks Compression/ Rebound values

As with anything else ..you get what you pay for,they may seem like a great deal until you have to keep rebuilding them every five minutes.

Levy Racing (Gordon) is a Koni dealer and the Roaring Forties distributor for the U.S.

I would be calling him for the right setup.

Re: Shocks Compression/ Rebound values

Howard, get ahold of the GTD guys in the UK, Malcolm, Paul or Andrew, they have been through the shocks and springs loop before and can advise on the correct set up for GTD's. Anti-roll bars too.
