After much reading and asking questions first let me say both Speedtech and Ridetech have a great product and customer service even before you buy their product. I have a 69 FB Conv and will not be autocrossing and mainly want a modern handling and capable car and I drive mine, Did route 66 in my original 68 Camaro Conv 327/auto. I reached out also to Ron Sutton and he has been great to ask me first what I want to do with the car. All being said I have chosen to go with the complete Speedtech pro touring front and rear set up from Ron Yes it is a little more on the front end but my FB requires purchasing different steering center link and more fab work if I choose the ridetech plus I have to pay to have the rearend, subframe etc. powder coated. The speedtech will come completely powder coated and ready to install, which is a big plus for my situation for slightly more after the above is considered.
In the end each situation, intended use, time frame and skill set is different so ask questions, be honest with yourself and research what will be best for you.
In my case just glad to be getting started putting my first car back on the road. Now for the 525 LS
