I went with Spohn. They follow the rocker panels on each side. They dont go near the tranny tunnel or the exhaust. The fit was awesome.

Re: subframe connetors for ls1 swap?

I have SSM/kenny brown knock offs ( I knocked em off LOL ) but SSM if you can find them are very VERY nice connectors. They are boxed, tie into the rear suspension, and weld in all the way down the rockers and floors with no ground clearance lost or interference at all with c mem or anything for that matter.
