Do you think you could post that pic on here? If not, could you send a picture to darrian_fawkes@hotmail.com ? I've seen this for sale on the net, but I've never seen a good pic of one... thanks.

My Ground Control brace is a 2pt, I am using the Edelbrock on my race car because it is a 3pt. I don't have AC on that car.
For street car the two point is better IMHO. Less stress on the windshield and easier to get in and out if you want to get it out of your way to work on the motor. I have a 2pt on my 4th gen street car.

i really don't see how a 3point is any harder on the windshield than a 2 point, i have looked long and hard at that windsheild cowl area, and at my 3point brace (which i have had on my car for 4 years now, with out a problem
and i push my car HARD) and my car was even involved in a front end wreck with the brace on, and no damage to the cowl area, or windsheild.

My comment was based on feedback from many folks I come across over the years who claim to have windshield cracks from 3pts. It does not seem illogical to me to think that having a 3pt may have been a factor. I think you are just lucky to not have windshield damage from a front end incident, STB or not.

Thanks. No, I don't make them for people. If I did, it would probably be for a trade for something I need for my car. So they can get somehting they need, as well as a bit of money, and I can save money on the deal and get what I want.

I bought one (Edelbrock Strut Tower Brace for TBI/carb.) but in the rush to get it I didn't check
that it wouldn't fit on cars with the A/C on the driver's side... does any one want to buy it?
$120 takes it!
