I think it's a great project. Hats off to you for taking it on.

Agreed, I have no need for this, but that don't make it a bad idea. I'm pretty sure Dempsey opened with "affordable".


Thanks Dempsey, nice job. - Steve

I’m still waiting to hear what exactly “affordable” means?

That does sound reasonable for a complete solution

Interesting project. I'm staying tuned to the post :-)
I'm 50/50 on the FX-3 system as it has been difficult to say the least when trying to get my shocks repaired / upgraded. To date, they have been sent out and returned w/o a rebuild due to lack of knowledge on how to modify the settings correctly and unavailability of parts.

I appreciate the effort on this; I'll be interested when you get to the point of selling.

Appreciated!...not knocking FX3. Just wanted to build a kit that does great things without huge modifications and high sticker price.[emoji6]

I should have these available by Corvettes@Carlisle(Aug 24th)[emoji41]

First and foremost, a great job Dempsey!
FX3 system was the state of the art in the late 80s. Ferraries of the era had near identical set up including identical FX3 controller except in Ferrari red.
I still have a brand new set of FX3 Bilsteins ready to be bolted on when my current set (replacing originals) expires.
However, even shock absorber technology marched on. Ideally, someone would offer a retro fit magnetorheological shocks for C4s - fat chance...
However, compression/rebound adjustable (albeit not on the fly) may be still a quantum leap compared to 80s tech FX3.
I, for one, will arrange to take a ride in Dempsey's coil overs and consider this option. Heck, my stashed away Bilsteins will pay for half of new coil overs...
Just my thoughts.
