Drag Suspension Struts / Shock Opinions

Many of you know my car has been retired from the daily driving duties and is just a fun car now. Well, I have decided to change the suspension for more drag racing duties as my current setup is better off hugging the corners. I already have a k-member, etc and all I need to replace is the struts, shocks and springs so looking for opinions.

I am currently leaning towards the following and also looking to see if anyone has had experience with these as well.

Front:Strange double adjustable coil-overs.

Rear:
Strange dual adjustable coil-overs



Setup for those that don't remember; turbo car, 3500 stall TH400, trans brake, etc.

I already have coil overs on the car but they are the MM Bilstien Struts custom valve to match the 350# coil over springs with MM coil-over kit. Rear setup is bilstien HD with HR Race Red springs. This car can handle the corners but not so good when the 3500 stall locks up the turbo is full boost, rear will not hold the tires as weight transfer is not good.

thoughts?

I figured I would sell my current setup, front alone I have more than 800 in the MM2 struts, MM coil-over and Springs. What do you think I could sell that setup for? The setup has less than 2000 miles on them.

Re: Drag Suspension Struts / Shock Opinions

I should also note that although I state 750rwhp, the goal is 1000+ with the changes that are coming, but no reason to do this until I can not stick the 750.

For that setup I am upgrading the computer and much bigger injectors. Then up the boost and see where it puts me, if not happy then I will be going twins.
