What you are showing at this web site is a Strut tower brace. It connects the strut towers (IN THE ENGINE BAY) together. Aren't you looking for sub frame connectors?

Strut tower brace

According to the web site, that stock# is for a V6 f-body. It probably won't fit a 4 barrel carb car, because of the air filter. I have a Hotckis tower brace on my 89 TPI. You have to have a minimum of 1/16 to 1/8 inches between the brace & the top of the TPI. The instructions state (on the Hotckis) that it will only fit stock dimension TPI units for 85 to 92 F-bodies.

SFC's, Adj. torque arm, pan hard rod, depending on how crazy your gonna get either an aluminum or Denny's steel "NOS ready drive shaft". drive shaft safety loop, and I'm sure I'll think of more. I'll add them as I think tonight lol.

I got drift UMI Performance is working on one right now . It is attended for the TBI set up but will most likely fit most carb models.
