I have to disagree with this comment. The Speedtech frame has more going for it than just looks over the stock frame. Here is what Blake had to say when asked about his frame vs. a stock frame.

“The differences:
Will fit up to a 20x10" wide wheel and a 285 tire at a lowered ride height.
Lighter weight than stock.
G-mod built in.
Can use other tubular arms (if you desire) we prefer you order the Hi-Clearance arms.
Air ride is a bolt in.
Will fit BB, SB, or LS.
Big 1.25" solid sway bar for use with hi clearance arms.
Also fits any after market sway bar if not using the Hi-Clearance arms.
Will fit any trans.
We have headers that fit with the rack and pinion steering

As for the hi-end subs they are hi-end, there really good, their more expensive.
Our sub concept was never to go head to head with DSE or AME, it is an option for the guys who want to use aftermarket Camaro components instead of Mustang II parts. Having said that all the testing we have done, the car handles awesome. Frank has beaten his up pretty good and is happy with the performance.”


Bottom line, will the Speedtech frame/suspension do everything I need it to do, yes! Only you and/or your client can decide if it's worth the extra money to have one of the others listed. Do I like the others, sure, they are nice! But, ST was a perfect fit for both my budget and needs!
