Thinking about mini tubbing my 67 firebird. Any suggestions on better
brands over others?? Any input would be great.
Thanks

Detroit Speed has a great kit.

Very carefully remove your exsting tubs and widen them with a strip of 18 ga. steel... That's how I do it. Costs some time and a few bucks for the 18ga.

I agree with both posts above this one!
DSE's are fine, but we've had to widen some of them more to fit a 335 in. Taking a stock inner wheelhouse and modifiying it gets you the same results with not much more time. New ones may be cheap but if your stock ones are in good shape and you're careful, they can be used too!

Not to hi-jack a thread, but if you were going for a 335 tire on a 68 camaro would you get the Detroit speed and engineering wheel wells or do the custom metal strip? Assuming your original wheel wells are rust free.
