I also just switched from KYB's to the red Koni classics.  These shock are not 
a race shock and provide a much nicer ride that the KYB and better handling 
too.  The bigest difference is the Koni's are not a high pressure gas shock 
like the KYB and Bilstien design.  Not to say KYB can compare to Bilstien.  I 
would recommend the change even though the Koni's are about 2x thew cost.  I 
paid just over $200 including shipping for front and rears last year when I 
found them on sale.

I recently switched from KYBs to Bilsteins on my '68 when CI had its 20% off 
sale, and am really glad I made the upgrade. They made much more of difference 
than I expected in ride improvement. I also have the larger Hotchkiss front 
swaybar.
