Ride tech shocks in a FF roadster.

I followed along as ridetech built their 33 Factory Five hot rod. I remember they tweaked the suspension and changed shocks for a better word. I have a FF roadster and the car rides very rough. I spoke with a Ride tech rep this summer at a Summit Racing Car show and pretty much had blank stares when I stared asking him questions so I thought I would ask my questions here. My roadster has Koni shocks and is very stiff. Probably great for racing but sucks on the bumpy roads here in Louisiana. I was wondering about upgrading shocks to a double adj with a softer spring and maybe a stiffer sway bar to compensate. It was tolerable till my friend with a small block Pinto told me my car rides just like his. It is a nice car but my 30 year newer design should ride better IMO.

Any feedback would be appreciated even if a different brand of shocks are recommended.

Short story...yes, we can do them. Everyone connected with that project is at SEMA this week. It's not a catalog item, all special order. Im typing this on my iphone, so I'll try to respond more fully next week.
