On my 91 Callaway ZR-1,I had their Bilstein shocks converted to coilovers by Guldstrand. Doug Rippie Motorsports did the coilover conversion on my 90 ZR-1. We kept the FX3 adjustable suspension system active on both cars and added a Bilstein controller. The different controller allowed me to change damping rates with just a cartridge swap. Nice set-up. I would stay with Bilstein for your particular application,Andre. Whatever you do,stay away from Aldan coilovers. Their stuff is found on a lot of pretty streetrods but FWIW,Aldan doesn't even own a shock dyno so that ought to tell you something.

Hey clint, which coilovers did you use on your vettes. I need to decide which to go for with the C4 suspension on my velle.
