What are the plans for the build? If it is an LSx then I would encourage you to take a close look at the AME. You can use the stock F body oil pan and accessory drives. The savings will more than offset the small additional cost of the AME over the lowest cost subrame option while delivering superior geometry and performance. You can also use C5 brakes and abuttments for around $500 to gain additional savings. Simply comparing the cost of the subframe without considering its effect on the total cost of the build makes no sense to me.

Customer service at AME is also second to none. I can send a PM to the engineer who designed it and have a response within hours. That sort of access is hard to come by or place a price on.
