I put Billistein's on my '78 Cutlass - love the ride...Try the Shock Warehouse, they're prices are reasonable.

PS - I hear the Edelbrock's are good too

I don't know about stiffer but its like comparing apples and oranges. Bilstiens and kyb are in 2 different leagues. The bilstiens are better valves that's for sure. You can compare say the Edelbrock ias and bilstiens but there is no comparison with the kyb

Bought cheap yellow shocks, KYBs, and Koni's in the past. Was not impressed with the cheap shocks or the KYBs. Edelbrock ISAs or Bilsteins now. Big Dan you should put up some pics of your ride in your photos section. Its an interesting build. Ever see what she will do in the quarter mile or mileage wise?
