Sub frame connectors

I was talking the other day to a guy who builds hotrods. Him and his buddies didn't really seem to care about any of my ideas. He shot down most of them including this one. That being that the current subframe connectors offered my the after market companies are garbage. He told me it's best to add frame connectors.
Now I don't doubt that frame connectors are anygood but how much flex can sub frame connectors stand up to?

you're talking about the same thing. SFCs tie the front and rear SFs together. if you had a frame (full frame) why would you want to tie it together?

I can tell you right now that the Spohn SFC's that I just got put on were DEFINATELY worth every penny. The difference is amazing. There is a very nice curve that I take on my way to work, and the fastest I had ever trusted my car to take it before was about 55mph, since I've had the SFC's, I've been able to take the freakin thing at 65-75 Its probably not the best thing to be doing, so I think I'm gonna slow it down a bit, hehe. Anyway, I'm sure you can see my point here. They also eliminated a lot of creaking, and misc. other flex that I had before. I dont think you can buy Spohn SFC's right now though, so you will probably have to get them elsewhere.

Thanks guys
Well This guy didn't believe that a guy like me could burn proms either. They thought you had to either order them specially or get some guy to do them for you.
Man it's like these old guys don't trust us or something.
