They look kinda interesting.

Ebay auction


Since they are for a heavier car would they be any firmer?

They would probably be firmer. I would only put shocks valved for a 914 in my 914.

Scratch that, I didn't look at the auction. I thought you were talking about off the shelf street shocks.

One of the great things about bilstein shocks - if you give your shocks over to Bilstein and tell them your swaybars, spring rates, weight and type of car, they can custom valve your shocks for you for not too much money.

v-8 w/ an o2 sensor.. screams injected... but then there's a pic of a demon box (carb)

Looks to be a serious hp v8 track car guy, so 400lb springs are very possible.
