Default Shocks

I realize there are many good shocks on the market. However my 67 L68 might need a new set. Can’t hurt!! What are some recommendations on what an old C2 needs for shocks.

I installed Bilsteins HD on my 66 and 68 small block coupes. I have a glass mono spring and sport springs on both. I don't remember the spring rates, but the cars handle well. I have had the Bilsteins on the 68 for over 25 years. Jerry
