Default K-member: Which to get?
I need to find a new k-member... the one i have now if for a 4 cylinder and i'm putting in a 408w, which i know you are supposed to use the 5.0L k-member. But i'm having a hard time finding one. i found the Maximum Motorpsport one which is a bit overpriced at $650, and the Granatelli one which requires coil overs which i dont have and dont have money for... so what should i go with? thanks...
