with chris' comments, add columns for 'requirements' - i.e. - retain stock springs, custom mounting hardware, and 'comments/notes'

The Penske's are approx $3200 and are available from Ankeny Racing Enterprises (www.ankenyracing.com).

Thats an interesting a rather strange shock graph.

First, that is a very digressive compression curve

Second, there is a lot more compression than rebound.

Third, from the specs it looks like it is Penske's linear/digressive mixed piston, with the linear site on rebound. I've always thought that went the other way around to allow digressive rebound for soft spring/big bar stock car setups.

Fourth, there appear to be two settings. Are we looking at different front/rear, or 4 shocks the same with different external adjustments?
