Thanks to all of you for the comments. I think that for now it will be KYB GR2s in back and I will see how that goes.

Just as an aside, many years ago (43) I did some auto crossing with a 1961 Alfa. It was really fun. The local SCCA guys do that (Solo II) and I have gone and watched a few times. With that in mind I put the IPD bars on the front and rear of the 444. The car would never be competitive (B20 and 1965 544 axles and brakes put it into a modified class which has some really fast cars) but I think it would be fun to just go out and run for the fun of it.

If I ever get around to actually doing that I'm thinking tires, tire pressures and brakes are going to be the key items - more important than shocks.

But that is way in the future - if ever. Lots of other items to tend to before that gets done. (Did get the "America Bars" on last week.)

Thanks again for the suggestions.
