I was going to ask the same thing. Summit sells them but I've found them even cheaper ($180).

I guess no one here has used one. I asked about a month ago with no response. I did end up finding a new BBK for $200 so the point was moot.

I would have bought one, but it was going to take a month for my parts place to get it. They had a BBK on the shelf, so I said screw the savings, I want it now !!
Mostly good reviews, from the research I did.

I got mine from CNC Motorsports for $161 + shipping. It took about 4 days to arrive.

I just took delivery of my 58mm this week. It is a sweet looking piece. Not sure of performance yet because the motor is out of the car right now. I feel at this point that it was a good value.
