      npdlink.com are quite good but you'll have far better service going straight through DSE direct.

      I've always found MCB to have the lowest prices on most things and some of the best customer service as well. Not sure if DSE would undercut a dealer or not.

      I know we're talking subframes here, but I was shopping around for mini tubs and their body bushing kit. Almost all of the vendors here had the same prices with shipping. I believe it is part of their agreement with DSE. When I was searching for info on the install of the tubs, I came across an ad at Eckler's (the Corvette parts supplier). I was browsing their Firebird section and found the tubs listed there quite a bit cheaper than the other quotes. I mentioned it to one of the above recommended vendors to see of they'd price match. They suggested I jump on it immediately as that pricing was not possible, nor could they match it. I decided to call my order in to Eckler's and ask for the DSE body bushing kit which wasn't listed. That was available, but not any cheaper than the others. Calling it in also got me a much cheaper price on shipping. I saved about $150.

      You should try GAP Racing. They are a DSE dealer in Houston and you might save a few bucks if you can pick it up at his shop on Steffani Lane as it is usually cheaper to ship to commercial than residential. Give Tim a call who is the owner. They are a sponsor here and are working on my Camaro so I can give him a first hand recommendation.

      Sales taxes will be significant.
