This is the STB page http://www.bmrfabrication.com/bmr/shtowbr.htm

they are having a GP on the thirdgen one for 75.00 provided that the min of 15 is met.

info on that is here http://www.bmrfabrication.com/bmr/gp.htm


well what do you guys think of this STB, worth the 75? i realize it doesnot detack from the mounts, but if you weld the bolts to the frame on the strut tower, you could just remove the brace.

what do you guys think?

Mike S. (aka ChevyMike) in our SC3GFB club has one on his 92 Z28. It is a good looking unit. His was painted silver with the logo cut out in the center of the STB. He is very please with the unit and has recommended it to others. Good luck, Lon.

 

I have it on my '88 GTA and am satisfied both with the quality of the piece and the customer service from BMR. I have recommended it many times.

As Lon stated, I do have the 3 point BMR STB. I am very happy with it. I chose it because the main bar is basically one piece. The secondary mounting bars are adjustable (not a one size fits all) so getting it to fit just right is a piece of cake. It really tightened up the front end. As a side bonus, they do different colors of powder coating (not paint) so I got silver to go with my color theme (Teal and silver). I would highly recommend them. Matter of fact, my dad bought a 2 point verson for his 2000 Z28.

Stell1579 - You must drill two mounting holes in each tower (2 or 3 point) and two on the firewall lip (3 point only). The hardest part is marking the holes under the bar (inside holes). I used masking tape on the towers, then set it into place. Marked the holes and drilled them. I was only off by 1/8" on one so I filed it open a little bit more.
