Im looking for a strut tower brace for my camaro. I have seen a lot of people with Hotchkin's stb but i really like edelbrocks stb with the 3 point connection. Is there really that much of a difference.

Ok. think about it.. what is stronger 2 or 3pts.. 3pts is.. the edlebrock setup places the braces on the strut towers and your window cowl. there for front flex downward. is almost gone.. Hotckis has the 2pt. and there is no support on the window cowl. they say this doesnt really matter but when you slam on the brakes for those little old ladies who drive 15mph. that does matter. it holds your body better.. and you will appreciate it. dont take me wrong Hotckis is a great companie for our cars. but on the STB side of things i would go with edlebrock.. hope i helped out..

I like the Hotchiks one. I would think that the 3 point would get in the way when changing fuel pressure t aking over distributer cover and plenum extension.
