Summit list these for B bodies INCLUDING 73 and lates, but it must be a mistake ?

I'm searching for an affordable monotube setup for fronts cheaper than RCD ( rears could be Gas-A-Just KYBs, since it seems this brand doesn't make rears for our B bodies )

Well comparing specs ( with Gabriel and KYB Excel G ) they must be wrong... length on these is 11.6"/7.67" while the Competition Engineering are 16.84"/10.37"... is a huge difference. So they are wrong listed on Summit!

( editing... one of the reviewers with a 73 Charger confirms that, picture included )

"Drag race shocks" transfer weight unlike road shocks that dampen effect.  :scratchchin: I got a super deal on Rockauto for Monroe Matics.  :2thumbs:

Are they any better than KYBs GR2 ? Those are the ones I have at this moment

Im cutting 1.4 60' times on stock shocks. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

I don't know, cheap and works okay was a win win. (They made a HUGE improvement on Jeep I had.) I don't race so just daily driving duty.
