Default Electric CutOut?

I had a normal (read manual) cut out on my z28, however I was thinking about an electric cutout this time around. Save me from pulling off the road or driving very very carefully when the police are around.

Any suggestions on where to get one? Any brand better than another? Anyone have one installed ?

Cheers'

I read that both the QTP and McCord weren't very reliable so I bought the Street Pro. A little more money, but very nicely built and it gives you more ground clearance.

I have the QTP electric cutout and it is one of my favorite mods on my ride... Speed Ink (www.ls1speed.com) carries them... I'm sure they will have the most competitive pricing... Good Luck!!
