Follow-up:
I talked to QA-1 this morning and learned the tolerences between the 7564 and 7463 are just not that great. Either would work, but they would lean more towards the 7463. I also talked with Barry McGill who has build a ton of these cars, Fiberglass 34 Coupes and Cobras by McGill Manufacturing. He said they have used both shocks and there wasn't really that much difference that the average person could tell.

In researching these shocks I found that Speedways Motors seems to have the best deal on them. For some reason they are still using the Carrera part numbers but QA-1 bought them out years ago. QA-1 said they are the same shock. Summit racing for some reason was wayyyyyy higher on these items.
