Yup, I know nothing about who makes those. It's really just a steel plate with few holes drilled. So they all should just about be the same.

I have these, Everyone else seems to like/use them as well.

Check out dirty dingo. He has them for the G-Body. We are using them on our 86 El Camino. No modifications necessary.
