I agree with Option C or a '69 mach stripe in black

Im thinking option c after you lower it some more. Lowering springs in the front and shelby drop would help

sweeeet!

Option C.

Baron Von Crowder · 04-13-2012, 09:12 AM

Nice of you guys to pick the cheapest option.

racrguy · 04-13-2012, 11:02 AM

I'm more fond of A because you'll still have an assload of flat panel above the stripe if you go with C.

Im with you, I don't know if c would be enough.

Z06killinsbf · 04-14-2012, 01:56 AM

Get something custom made?

Torinoman · 04-14-2012, 09:50 AM

how well does that venom setup work? been thinking about doing something similar to my Torino

Pooter · 04-14-2012, 11:24 AM

A or C on the stripes, at least with A it breaks up some of the white a little more.

Like Mike said, needs more low too!

Its very well made, and very simple. The main bracket is about an inch thick, cnc'ed, and is straight, so not much room for deflection. The spacer is hub centric, and the knurls of the new 3" studs press into it as will. Once it is all put together, it might as well be considered one piece.

When you compare the costs of the other brake upgrades, this is priced closely, and imho a much better system, speaking fROM my application and options.

Torinoman · 04-15-2012, 12:33 PM

the 3 inch studs press into the bracket? or you have to get new wheel studs for the hub?

edit: nm, took a second look at your pic and saw the spacer you were talking about. did it come with new studs?

Yeah it come with all the hardware

Baron Von Crowder · 04-15-2012, 06:52 PM

I think I found a stripe that will be about right, and it looks like/similar to the lower portion of the boss 302 strip. I can get it blank or with 302 cut out of it... Im leaning twards the 302 cutout.
