I know this question is prolly beaten to death but does anyone know what the name of these factory shocks are and if I can get replacements, and if not, what are some decent replacements I can put on here.

Re: Shocks
 
Those appear to be original AC DELCO spiral shocks. You can still get them on sites like Ebay, or maybe a member has a pair for sale? But they are generally not cheap, especially if their mint in the original GM packaging. Replacement shocks can vary in price and quality depending on your cost range? you can get a decent gas set of KYB's, Gaberial's, or Bilstein's. Check for deals on sets, and if your replacing the rear's, best to do the fronts also. Good luck!

I used KYB shocks on my 85 I had put Monroe’s on it about a year ago wasn’t impressed at all with them . I have Gabrials on my c20 there ok I’m going to change them out to KYBs also this summer
