Does the "FG" match your '90 Build Sheet? It should.

These are NEW OEM GM 22098302 FX3 shocks, additional part number on shocks are FG code, BA57000W1. I spoke with Bilstein this AM to confirm these are GM shocks and not aftermarket Bilstein. Compare with aftermarket at the cheapest I could find on eshocks.com and over $436 for the pair.
Selling for $320 shipped. Check or money order. If Paypal, add fee.

The Bilsteins I have are BA5-7000-HO/20-070007 for front.
I am trying to figure out what the BA5-7000-W1 is??

Here is all I know from talking to Brian at Bilstein yesterday before posting. Bilstein made shocks for manufacturers that were made to put on the cars at the factory, shocks made for GM/AC Delco to sell, and shocks made for the aftermarket.
BA5-7000 designates it for the 89-91 FX3. The HO on yours designates aftermarket. On this set, he said W1 identifies it as a made for manufacturer or OEM. They don't rebuild or do custom work on OEM shocks. He said these would have listed for over $600 from GM over the counter. You could call Bilstein on Monday to verify if you are interested. I bought these for my 90, but selling that car later so getting rid of all my 90 related parts. Thanks for your interest. I posted more photos of the part numbers and the top of the shock.

Here is a Bilstein catalog. Page 4 has the BA5-7000 as the FX3, variable setting shock for the front of 89-91 under ZR1.

Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge. I did see on the build sheet for my 90 ZR-1 that it is coded "FG" for the front shock. Is this what the NCRS judges look for?

Yes that would be an "item on the check list". I was going to add the W1 as being constructed for an OEM in that post but rather than create a post that I couldn't substantiate "in print" I just left it alone, I'm quite sure I have it. It's good to see that the rep from Bilstein mentioned that in your conversation.
