It wasn’t a University, it was a DeLorean owner, and it was done about 12 years ago. Most, if not all, the vendors have changed suppliers in the time that has passed, and at least one new supplier has popped up since then.

Maybe someone can find it online? BTW some venders claim temperature compensation, some offer damping valving, one offered (maybe still does) refillable struts. They are NOT all the same. For a while (long ago) one vender's struts were too long when compressed and a lot of car's anchors got damaged from that particular run. Venders also change suppliers so the struts you buy today may not be the same as the last ones you may have gotten from any particular vender. They also DO vary in pressure. I recently installed a set and one was definitely stronger than the other. Sometimes you can get away with not having to do an adjustment by putting the strong one on the weak side and vice-versa.
