WTB: Red Strut Tower Brace

Looking for a good deal on a strut tower brace. I really want red but will do black. I prefer UMI or BMR but will look at anything. Let me know what you have.

Anyone know/care to describe how much these STBs tighten up the steering feel and general front end stability feel of the car? Just curious as to getting one when I start moving to adjustable setups to better plant the car (exhaust should be done soon.)

As for 73CamaroLT, look into Founders too. They've got a nonadjustables for around 45ish too. Think buldogwinters went with them and he's said nothing bad about them.

I went with BMR is because they were the only ones to have the V6 version

I'm gonna go with a three point, the v6 is lighter in the front so hopefully it helps a bit more than the v8.
IMO the lt1 with the STB would be less helpful considering the motor is heavier (made out of iron) compared to the ls1 (made out of aluminum)
