Default 69 Camaro Subframe choices, DSE, Roadster, or Scott Mock

Well bit the bullet and picked up another 69 shell. Now that my 70 is almost done, I'm finally going to turn loose and build my dream 69 Camaro. But there are so many choices when it comes to subframes. Very familiar with DSE, Scott seems to build a damn nice piece also then the RS piece is a thing of beauty!! I'm leaning towards the RS unit. But anyone got any insight on all three?

I know, huh. If Stielow, who builds the fastest first gen camaro's on the planet, runs DSE that should tell something. Alot of other choices for sure. Just like tires, everyone has ones they love and hate.

I personally think all of the choices you've given are good and you cannot go wrong with either one. Yes, Mark uses DSE, but what if he chose to use Scott Mock's or RS? Would DSE better any less better because Mark never ran it...no. Get my drift? Just my opinion. I will now crawl back into my hole. LOL!!

I spent a good deal of time looking at all the major subframe designs, comparing prices and features and I ultimately decided on the DSE subframe. It is the only one on the market with hydroformed rails and it just looked more finished than some of the others. But there is really no bad choice out there. Any of the top name manufacturers make quality units and they are all in the same ball park price wise.
