Poopy 13th-August-2006, 02:26 AM There is a search button up top, this have been covered about 458 times. :) I would recommend doing a little searching, then maybe ask some specific questions. Everybody probably has a favorite...there is no "best" clip. Good luck! novaBRO 13th-August-2006, 02:30 AM yeah, that is a good queston who makes the best clip for the ****$ the best bang for my buck. novanutcase 13th-August-2006, 09:27 PM Even though there are lots of posts on this already, I'll give you my .02 then you can go search and see if I'm full of s*&t or not(Probably!) I think it really depends on what your application is. If you want to build a drag car then I would go with either a Heidts or whatever other clip that has the same stock geometry built in. If I'm not mistaken TCI and Chassisworks have changed the geometry to improve handling so if you want something that you can push a little and still get good cornering then these are probably good candidates. What would I put in my car? I plan on pushing it pretty hard. Not racetrack, full out, 1 inch away from the wall hard but hard nonetheless so I will have either Wayne Due or Art Morrison make me a full frame but I'm sure the front clip will be the same regardless. I like their front clips because they use corvette Control Arms and spindles and I just love the way they look along with the other performance features they afford so before you ask what would be the best clip I would first ask what do I want to do with it, then hit the search button:rolleyes: ! jinxproof77 14th-August-2006, 11:44 AM If you go with Total Cost Involved as I did, make sure to buy Heidt's springs as TCI's made my car sit like a gasser, even with drop spindles. I also had to drill and tap out all the holes on my clip because evidently the guy at TCI who welded the clip was using a blindfold. Oh and enjoy a giant bag of different nuts and bolts with no indication of where they go or torque specs thanks to TCI's fabulous instructions. Bottom line for me, and I know others have had success with their TCI clips. If I ever get a different Nova, I will get a different clip. Real McCoy 14th-August-2006, 12:20 PM I have no recomendations but whatever you buy, be sure and ask if there are blueprints, good instructions with sketches or photos and a on call tech dept to help you. I know alot of people who bought kits from places and when they had problems couldn't get any help. Then they end up having to pay someone to come and fix the mess they have. I say it alot but for some reason people keep buying the cheaper kits from big stores with no instructions or tech dept. Don't be foolish and join that list. RM | |
