This morning, boy what a day and night difference. The car is so solid now, it's like a totally different car. It was $50 for the install, but this guy is GOOD......

Hey all I'm haveing just a few problems finding SFC's to fit on the ver't frame.... can you think of anyone that sells them? I've been to quite a few places and everyone has that little * next to all of the prices that I have found to mean

* If you have a convert Camaro and are looking for SFC's you're F^(!ed because they don't exist !

I have looked at BMR, HOTCHKISS, Competition Enginering, Granatelli, and a few other off market places..... any suggestions?? I know they have to be out there somewhere!!!

Check BMR ... they have 'em ... at least for 4th gen ... same price as the boxed SFCs for regular f-bodies ... unless Tony comes up with some suspension mods for my car, I'll probably be ordering their suspension packet some time and get it put on during the winter ... (the package has STB, Panhard and SFCs, at $70 savings)

Maybe we should ask for a rebate on a GP? Who else needs stuff from BMR?

There are lots of places that sell vert SFCs. BMR is one of them (highly recommended).

I thought those braces were just for added rigidity... They're supposed to stiffen up the chassis a bit more, but not a noticeable difference when compared to the ones like mine.
