I'm leaning towards buying some. Do you think they'd work well with fiberglass springs??

well, Edelbrock makes them for C4's which has glass spring in the rear. These shocks use a gas canister which supposedly is preferred for glass springs. Might be advisable to email them the question.

True, so there shouldn't be a problem. I have another quick question for ya...I live on a back country road off the interestate and my shocks beat me to death right now. But I also do a lot of interstate driving and put the car thru its paces. My question is do they really adjust that well?

I found them to live up to the advertisement claims. They're a bit more pricey than most other shocks, but again, I'm happy with them.

My buddy just put a set on his otherwise bone-stock '77, and he says they're great. The car holds the road better, and rides softer on rough roads. I'll be buying a set for myself soon :cheers:
