I put a pair on my '65 Coronet. Wondering if anyone else is using them? I haven't driven the car yet since the motor is on the dyno and not in between the fenders.

I assume those are different than the QA-1's? Did you get the double adjustable? I am in the market before long... Cameron Tilley took a set of the double adjustable QA-1's back to Oz for his new VF Valiant racecar. Still in the fabrication process. Lou |

I don't know that much about shocks...but I installed a pair of the QA1 coil over adjustable in a 66 GTO with tubular uppers and lowers...although only one adjustment dial per shock. Anyway, they worked very well and were very responsive to adjustments. But I guess thats not strange engineering is it... Gearhead |

The QA1 and the Strange Engr shocks appear to be visually identical. Quite possible that they are built by the same company. The ones I put on were the single adjustable. 8 position adjustment. |

Hi Andy: That sure sounds like the same ones, and I was sure happy with them...at least compared to the typical gas shocks I have usually installed. Although I was never unhappy with those either, but they weren't adjustable. Sorry I never made it to your shop before heading East...guess it will have to wait till they kick me off this coast, or stop paying me so much that I miss home enough to leave. Karl aka Gearhead |

They are the same price too, so could be the same units. QA-1 and Carrera appear to be the same company now. Lou |
