hotchkis stb? i wanted to buy the hotchkis stb but i have fuel rail covers and was wondering if there is any fitment problems with the two? also the stb is 250 polished i am just owndering if you guys think it would be cheaper to buy one not polished and have it done elsewhere? thanks for the input.
Re: hotchkis stb? How much $$ is it regular?? You can get one chromed for about $100 and it will be less work to keep shiny 
You can see it with FRC's at my website.. no fitment probs at all..

Re: hotchkis stb? it is 189 non polished which i think means black? and 249 polished. i guess it it going to be worth it to get it polished already. thanks for the quick responses
Re: hotchkis stb? I think I need to invest in a different STB because my BMR one has severely thrashed my FRCs. 
I'm considering the Hotchkis or the SLP to replace it.
Oh well... add it to the list of winter projects.

Re: hotchkis stb? Here is a pic.. clears by a good margin and is a nice place to tie back fuel lines and throttle cables, etc.
If you get the polished one maybe you should have it clear powdered.. will save a lot of work

Your BMR Struct Tower hits the FRC's??????? WOW. Mine is miles away . . . . .
The drivers side FRC wasn't ever on right, but the passenger one was and even it rubbed.
The engine torqueing from racing can't have helped either, heh.
Whatever the case may be, the FRCs & STB need re-doing this winter.
