Once you have the extension figured out, then you can work on the compression.
But no matter what shock valving you have, get rid of those 26" slicks! Taller is better.

Good advice Jeff. The reason I like the compression fairly stiff if for a leaf spring car. They separate a lot when they leave which creates a bunch of stored energy that can pull the wheel back up too quick. This applies the most to a stick car. Loosen it some for a trans brake car, and even more for a footbrake car.
