  • Wanted: convert sub frame connectors

    Looking for some RED 4th gen convert subframe connectors, looking for the ones that can be bolted in and welded at a later time

    SFCs for verts are one thing you can never find if you want them, and you can never sell them if you have them!

    I thought at one time [MENTION=2901]farmington[/MENTION] had a set of these to sell, but I don't know if he ever got rid of them.

    Check out SearchTempest.com to do a natinwide search of craigslist, and also scour LS1Tech.com.

    Otherwise, just sign up for UMI Performance's newsletters and wait to see if them come up with a sale.

        one of the big suspension parts manufacturers just within the last year or so started remaking 3 point double diamond SFC's for our verts. Check the verts section on LS1tech.com and do a search. They looked very nice.
        When in doubt, Whip it out !

              What are you guys running ? Would the 2 points work well or should I go with the 3 point bolt/weld in design ? I plan on getting it around 450-500hp eventually then leaving it at that. I still want to drive it in the summer so I dont need it to be super race car just tons of fun when the skinny pedal on the right is used

                I have 2-points because that was all that was in the marketplace for verts at the time. SLP used to make 3-points for verts, but they are rare as hen's teeth.

                Remember, the coupe and convertible SFCs are not interchangeable!

                3-points are superior, as you are anchoring your subframes with a triangulated brace. Much stiffer, much more resistant to torque. UMI is the only place that I know of that builds them now. The do come in red powdercoat.

                  I was planning on the UMI 3 points, I know they are more money I just hate doing things multiple times, I guess I'll just put them in now and then I know Im set for extras

                      If you do buy the UMI 3 point, would you mind sending me pictures and taking a few measurements before installing?
