Comp Eng 3 ways

Summit gives me three different versions...
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CEE-2710/

Two of which are Chevy, how do I know which one works for me?

Also, any one know any other cheaper retailer to get em for?

Now I am confused.. apparently the summit variant is a repackaged CE.

Gah.

Ok I purchased the Summit versions, guys on tech were pretty impressed with em and I think they "may" be reboxed CE shocks.

Hopefully get em installed this Saturday and get to the track to test em out.

Look at the stampings to see what's on there. I've had two experiences with summit parts:

1.) Rear Disc brake kit. Buzz was that it was a reboxed SSBC kit and it is.
2.) 3" Fully welded mufflers. Buzz was that they were Thrush or Dynomax- and they aren't.

Yeah. Bites you have to take them off to adjust them but you can't beat the price.

Yea, I saw that, but for the price, I will deal with it. Heck, my car is always in some state of repair anyways, so it shouldn't be a hassle.

I'll set em at 50/50 and hit the track.

not if they are on their softest setting... theres like little to no damper force when they are like that and they probably shipped them that way... how come you can only change the setting with them fully compressed??
