As far as I know, Hotchkiss doesn't make bolt-in SFCs. I do know of 3 companies that do make bolt-in SFCs:

1. Alston Racing- You can get these from TDS (board sponsor) for $189.00.
2. Competition Engineering- You can get these from Jegs ($249.99) or Summit Racing ($245.95) but the catalogs say that they do not work with factory exhaust.
3. Jegster- You can get these from Jegs for $179.99.

I think that the Alstons might be the best since they give you the opportunity to install two sets of SFCs on a car. The Alstons connect from the rear of the transmission area to the rear lower control arm mounts while certain other SFCs go along the pinch welds (like the Spohns), IIRC. That's why I chose the Alstons, at least.

If they do make them, than I can't find them. I haven't seen Hotchkiss bolt-in SFCs in any performance magazine, parts catalog, or even on the Hotchkiss website. Maybe they used to make them but don't anymore ?
