Southside lift bars

What do you think of this kit? Does it improve handling/dragstrip traction like they claim?
Thanks,
Chuck

I don't have this kit, but I've only seen one magazine article done on it using an IROC and it dropped 60ft times and et's like 2 tenths and got rid of the wheel hop. They also said it added 35 lbs to the rear so I wonder if the et drop was because of the added weight. Sure is a lot of work just for 2 tenths in the quarter. One cool thing about it is it lets you get rid of the torque arm. But for the same price and similar (or better) results, I think I'd rather get a Spohn torque arm instead.
