I've a pair of Bilstein shocks here and I'm unsure as to if they are B6's or B8's
I'm 95% sure there b8's as the numbers are matching up on Kam racings site, but cant find anything from Bilstein to confirm

The numbers I have are
F4-V36-4133-H0
F4-V36-4134-H0

These cam fitted with Eibech springs so I'm guessing they were likely to be originally from a B12 kit?

Theres conflicting info everywhere I check....
Bilsteins own part numbers dont add up to those for any of the 3 types of 306 damper.

Kamracing and others sell them as b8's

A few sell them as b6's but they look like s**t sites so my money is on b8s.

EDIT:

Yep, B8's
Looks like bilstein use several different partnumbers for one product, look here (On the image):
