Question on SFC's

My '99 Z28 will be going in to have exhaust cutout welded in soon and was wondering if I should get some SFC's installed at the same time. I don't have t-tops. I will have a cutout, ORY, st headers and lid w/filter. So will it really be worth installing SFC's for a daily driver that will occasionally run the 1/4 mi? Stock suspension w/koni shocks in the front. And since I am low on cash at the moment I will not be upgrading the suspension much anytime soon. And what are good sfc's to get?

Quality and value, look up BMR...they have a great line...check out www.stealthperf.com for some good prices

Very high Quality and expensive, try Kenny Brown DD's, SLP also has a nice line

...there are two kinds to get..the ones that are triangle shape or ones that are straight...you being a hardtop...the cheaper straight line (BMR) would be more than fine

Even for a street car without T-Tops, a good set of SFC's will really help tighten it up.

I'm running bolt-in double diamonds from Spectacle Solutions, along with his STB. It's a great set of SFC's and have NEVER given me a problem or worked their way loose.

SFC's make the car soooo much tighter.I don't know why GM didn't install the things from the factory.It feels like the SFC's made my car go up $10k in value.Feels awesome now.

Because it costs extra $$$. GM is full of accountants who would much rather have you spend your own money on your car.
