Already tried doing a search, can't figure out which is better the spohn or alston subframe connectors. they are going on my 89 formula hardtop. anyone got any ideas or anythign else they can reccomend better

 

look at the top of this page, that ought to help you make a choice

 

I like my Spohn's subframe connectors, noticed them as soon as they were installed. Really stiffened up the car, little more push ya back in the seat action

As long as you don't have any worn out parts, subframe connectors are the first thing you should do for an f-body.

If i ever get another one, that's top of my list.

Define 'better' in this context.

Theres plenty of info out there if you search. Myself and a few others have taken the route of buying and installing both these brands/styles of SFC.

A lot depends on what your plans are for your exhaust system. If you are going to be getting/fabricating a complete custom system then you free to get both but if you have an 'off the shelf' or standard system then be sure to search thorougly for the opinions of those who have the same system and have installed SFC's.

 

Theres so much information and opinions out there. I've done a search for you and came up with several relevant threads:-

id go with spohns

 

I'd go with both.

 

my exhaust is hooker 2460s with custom 3" y pipe with high flow cat with gale banks cat-back

 

Spohn. The Alsotons will prolly be in the way since it crosses over the top of the exhaust.

Mine fit fine with SLP 1 3/4 singe cats, single 3" HF and 3" exhaust.....

 

Hrmmm oook. I looked at them before and I have the same headers as the gent above. Just my y-pipe is 3" from the collectors back. With the way that I have it ran there is no way in hell that the Alston's would fit.

Spohn.
