I would go with the 2 pts instead of the 3 pts. 2 pts have performed very well for me during the past year. I have the Hotchkis 2 pt. If we keep adding weight to these cars we will be at the 4000 mark really quick.

If you are mounting the TA to the floorpan, you really should consider 3 points as now the stress from the torque arm is now transfered from a factory proven "strong point" to a now thin spot of the monocoque, otherwise 2 point will suffice. If you aren't doing heavy drag racing, then you can guess what I am about to say.
