I like the hurst style because it has multiple outlet positions, I think sjm has this style also on their site

I used the SLP set up on my 95 Z and it was nice. It came with pre-bent lines and everything and worked well.

I bought my car with the SLP LL, it works great. I also purchased SJM's ABS delete and love it, you can't go wrong with either.

I think that's mostly for guys who have aftermarket rear ends without ABS or have 28"+ tires on the back which disable the ABS as well...

i have SLP. liked the fact that all the lines were prebent.
i dont know if the others come that way or not. i think
another reason for the abs delete is some guys get a really
spongy pedal or pulsating pedal and that abs module is freaking
outrageous.

The way I see it, the only time my ABS has ever functioned in ANY of my cars is if it starts sliding on snow while coming to a stop. Since my firebird does not touch snow... and 1+1=2... When I get the SJM line-lock kit, ABS is goin bye bye with it.
