Default SFC Question??

I have searched for like 2hrs. on this topic and I just want to know if I should choose a SFC that is tubular or boxed?? I am tossed, if I go boxed I will probably go with BMR but if I go with a tubular design I will probably go with the Umi 3-point design. Let me know because I am undecided between which ones to go with. I have a 2000 WS6, T-tops, 6-speed. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the help guys.

well boxed ones are stronger than tube ones for the most part, but 3 point ones are stronger than 2 point ones...

Well if you need ground clearence, dont go with the boxed ones. I like the 3 pt design myself, I feel it ties the whole car together. The UMI 3 pt. tubular is a very nice choice! I do love my Kenny Brown DDs too. -----So my vote is for 3 pt.......
