Default Serpentine System Bbc

I know there are a few choices for the after market serpetine systems like the Billet Tru Track, Vintage, etc. Wondering if anyone has experience or opinions with the different systems available and any strong preference of one product over the other? Thanks.

Well, we sell March, Vintage Air and Billet Specialties. If you like a strong as death industrial looking set up, Vintage Air. if you like a blingy set up. march and billet Specialies are it.

Here is a cool new set up at a bargain price (and you can even get a better deal through us) we have been selling a lot of. I have one coming in black that I cannot wait to get.

i bought the march mid mount serpentine system with billet alt and PS pump for my 32 roadster and i was not and am still not impressed... it just isnt a very well engineered product.. my advice is to either go with a full on system like BS or vintage air.. or stick with OEM brackets! (mabe the style track has addressed the shortcommings i encountered... )

We only sell, and use Billet Specialties because it is the one system that we found installs the way it should. And, it's now offered in anodized black, sweet:

I appreciate all the feedback - I've been leaning towards Billet. They had a great display at Good Guys here in Arizona this November and I really liked the black anodized also. It helps having everyone's input, especially with the price of this part. I'm finally back to work on my project after having it sit for about a year, been busy moving to a new house, starting a new business, and my wife and I having our first child. I was tempted to sell it a couple of times but resisted and I'm back to work on it - I know I would always regret it if I did not finish it. My brother and I are building a 496 BBC now and I have my wheels coming from I-Forged so it is getting exciting again with plans to have it in paint by the end of summer. I have old pics on the home page I need to get updated on progress. I'm going with Billet - Thanks again to everyone.

You've made a great decision! You will NOT be dissapointed. The BS kit goes together and installs with ease, and works excellent. And the Black looks sweet.

Let us know if you need a quote on a kit.
