When it lands it bounces off the bump stops and comes up again about a foot before it settles down. Looking for something economical. Thanks in advance.
I had Eric at AFCO build me a set. All my problems went away. 800.00

Would have saved me a lot of money if mine had worked like their rep claimed they would, when he pumped me full of crap at the PRI show, or maybe SEMA. They worked no better than the QA1s they replaced. Only harder to reach the upper adjustments.
I talked to Mr Mans, but had already had them worked on once. Between the two, QA1s were easier to deal with, and the car hooked the same. Bounced the same also. :-)

From talking to others I knew the Santuffs would cure it. Hard to believe the difference.

Look at the bright side Ed. You buying all of those shocks worked out good for ME. They seem to be working great on my bracket car. Let me know when the Santuffs go up for sale its most likely the only way I will be able to get the wife to let me have a set. LOL.

Hey guys, can someone give me an estimate of a pair of custom built double adjustable shocks(Afco Eliminator or similar) from shops like Chris Bell, Mark Menscer, Randy Mans etc? Hoping to stay under a grand if possible. Reply or PM me, thanks!

I know you want to stay under a grand. But Santhuff DA front 67-69 Camaro /Nova shocks are $1075.00 . That's not too far over a grand.

Menscer Motorsports has been hands down the best products I have put on my car. I am a dealer for them if anyone needs a quote for there setups.
