SFC's Im in the process of shopping for some SFC's and was wondering if you guys had any recommendations on what brand/style? Also, is there a noticable difference between weld on and bolt on? Thanks alot all!

Get the weld in type only IMO, they're much better when done properly.
As for which ones, BMRs are popular but any good weld in will be better than none at all. I prefer the straight 2 point ones over the triangulated DDs (double diamonds) personally.
If anyone knows which are the lightest SFCs (obviously NOT the SLP or KB DDs or similar) I'd be curious to know that as well.

If installed correctly bolt-on's work just fine, either SLP or Don Goetz would be a good choice. BTW, this would be better off in the Handling & Braking section.

I put in the KBDD's on my vert SS, and the difference was night and day. But, for a T-top or hard top car, I don't think you'd need the diamonds (although they would be stiffer).
Either way, I'd have a shop you trust weld them on. I never liked the idea of bolt-on SFC's.

Yes to both questions, It didn't take long to know I made a mistake in buying the Prowler but as you can see in my sig I'm back.
