LCA for 3.1 V6

I am considering installing Lakewood LCA on my 92 RS. I have minor engine mods (GM Blaster, TPI Intake, & Accel HEI module). I am weighing the the benefits of installing the aftermarket LCA as opposed to just installing ES bushings in the stock LCA. Does anyone have Lakewood LCA on their 3.1 and what benefits do they provide?

I also have KYB GR-2 front and rear, a GM wonderbar, and GM IROC 34mm/24mm setup with new ES bushings currently installed so my car already handles fairly well.

I doubt they would make any difference whatsoever with just a 6-cylinder motor.

However, sub-frame connectors make a HUGE difference on any of these cars, to their overall ride, handling, etc., and just general body stiffness. It's amazing how much they tighten it up, and stop all the rattles, squeaks, and all that, just from eliminating all the flopping around that the weak car body does.
