My guess would be edelbrock. I havent had any experience with either, so i really couldnt tell you for sure. Ive got belltech nitro drop shocks on my truck with a 5/6 drop and zq8 sway bars, and it handles like a dream.

neither. if you want a good handeling shock you need a shock with ajustable rebound and compresion, but the edelbrock is a better baseline perfomance shock for the money.

Edelbrock is the better of the 2 but I would go with the nitro active Belltech shocks I ran many sets of them over the years and they are great.

Between the two I'd say edelbrock. However both are somewhat soft and for handling I'd go with belltech or QA1 adj. shocks. There's another thread on shocks somewhere, go look at it.

I've run both -- the stocker deCarbons and now Edelbrocks. . . I can definitively say the Edlebrocks are better.

I have heard that the Koni adjustable shocks were pretty good. I have run the DeCarbon shocks and the Bilstein shocks and the Bilstein shocks are better IMO.
