Default which front sub-frame

im trying to figure out which front subframe to get for my 70 camaro. I have the martz chassi rear 4 link and its great and im thinking about getting their front clip as well. What are my other options, who makes a good product?

What are the benefits of getting an aftermarket unit compared to just upgrading the uper and lower arms and getting coilovers with a complete bushing kit.

This is car is for the street but i do want to loose some front weight due to my already heavy big block.

I do not like the Martz unit, search the forum and you will not find much good about them. DSE, 21st century, Chris Alston, and now Art Morrison make nice sturdy subframes. I am not sure anymore which I would choose now. As for modding you original frame, you can really improve the factory frame enough to please most mear mortals, but it may not have the bling factor.

Also, if you are on a budget I have a used low mileage Chris Alston subframe for sale for $3500 with brakes.
