Which shocks should I use?

[the_win]

I have a 1976 911S Targa. The front struts and shocks are Boge and the rear struts and shocks are Koni. From what I understand I can put Boge, Koni or Bilstein shocks in the front. I can only put Koni shocks in the rear. I plan on using my car 75% street and 25% track. What would be a ideal setup, that would fit my needs?

Actually the rear should be just regular shocks, so you can put whatever you want in the back. Same shocks on rear from '74-'89.

The fronts will take any insert as long as you get the insert for the Boge strut.

I just put Bilstein Sports on my '88 all the way around and they are great. My car is also a daily driver with all types of road conditions and they aren't too stiff for me. My recommendation would be to go with Bilstein Sports. Pelican has them here,

I did the work myself, easy to do. You'll need an impact driver to get the front top nut off and a big wrench to get the rear bottom bolt broken loose, but after that it's a breeze.

Oh, and to anyone who is interested I found the info on the rear sport/hd/sport-rallye Bilsteins as posted to the Rennlist email group by Steve Weiner of Rennsport Systems, www.rennsportsystems.com

These cars can use either rear shock in a "Sport" application
depending upon the car's weight, spring rate, and usage.

The B46-0169 are valved 194/150 and are quoted as HD for some
911's and Sport for others.
The B46-0975 are valved 294/152 and are Sports only.
The Ralley Bilsteins are stiffer in rebound and have less
compression damping but should be custom valved for each car.

Shock valving should be matched to the spring rates in use
(torsion bar size).
