smike knows better, I haven't ever touched that yet.
it's mostly effort though.

bypasses are easier to tune, that's the major benefit to them.

seal kits, probably a few shims depending on what they need and a gallon of oil would do it for 100$ or so.  They look well used, and are blues the economy performance level 

do i only see one compression and one rebound adjustment on the bipass?

I should have looked closer, they do look pretty well-used. And yeah, 2 tube. That's pretty strange too. Makes 1500 seem pretty steep.

2.0 i think they are 18" , do you measure eye to eye or total overall length? support 1000lbs a corner, new on kustom1 $270 asking $700 but would take 600

18" would be the travel, should match the amount of shaft showing at full extension.
length measurements are taken eye to eye extended and collapsed. sometimes easier to look up than measure.

progress
what a pain to get this engine to fit, had to relief cut the frame spread it open fish plate it and still had to notch to get the header to fit
shocks have been purchased
is this an acceptable amount of chain movement or should it be replaced?

no room above the motor either, the intake is so tall on the 5.8 im hoping i even mounted it low  enough to not have to modify the hood
motor got stripped of everything to make it easier to clean and paint it eventually, thankfully i did because the cover had a crack on the inside. new cover ,oil pan,water pump,gaskets  and starter sitting on a shelf. it crazy the cost difference between sbf and sbc

I was wondering how long before the seo link spamming started from our new offshore friend.
