    Corvette never came with a 10/90 shocks . I have rebuilt a few. Delco did make a lot of shocks that were soft on compression but never 10/90.Circle track cars adjust the compression and rebound to hold the car down or up on that corner fpr a short time.They use them as a timing device .Shocks does not change ride height. A 90/10 drag shock holds the front of the car up for a short time to help transfer weight to the back wheels.You cant hardly compress one of those drag shocks. If you put a true 10/90 shock on your car it would hold the car down when hit a bump. Chevrolet NEVER did that. The Corvette shocks I have rebuilt are closer to 50/50.

      I replaced the rear spring on my 74 in 1989 with a fiberglass spring from Vette Products St Petersburg FL. VP recommended Carrera adjustable shocks to go with the spring.

        There's a full page ad in Driveline for these shocks.

        Has anyone installed them?
