I prefer Koni Reds. Good ride and they last nearly forever. Very decent 
control. KYBs and Bilsteins generally gave a harsher ride on cars I've 
tried them in. No experience with Sachs Boge.

>I also hope to replace the springs at the same time.  Any reccomends?

I have the IAP springs in my '79 and they're good, but I think from what 
I've seen that a set of the Ward & Dean springs are the best of the best 
for the street. They're also a lot more expensive, about twice what the 
IAPs go for.

I bought all this stuff mailorder. It was less money that way.
