[V8] Simple basic stupid question

[J123fs at aol.com]

Having run every type of shock at this point in a V8 - Bilstein, Koni,  
Boge, Monroe, KYB, and I think the Boge reds are the best for the $$ and  ride 
well in the stock setup.
As far a perceived stiffness I would state from hardest to softest:
Bilstein Sport NLA??
Bilstein HD
Koni's in middle adjust
Boge Red
Boge Blue NLA for V8?? look for 5000 application- still stiff enough for a  
V8 IMO
KYB- again another 5000 app, but fine in a V8
Monroe- they are cheap and soft.
I heard a couple negatives on Bilstein, but I think they are perfect  (HDs) 
in a stock setup IMHO, but do cost a bit more. Much better turn in and  
great rebound control, but admittedly not for everyone.
Konis on the new car are a real bitch to adjust- would rather have a non  
adjustable ones in there, I would be less tempted to play with them.
Shocks are so subjective as far as what is good - as some folks really want 
 comfort, others like me will trade off a little comfort for a bit better  
suspension control.....
