Line lock selection
Tired of holding the brake trying to get a good burnout. Works most of the time, but ready to try a line lock. Who makes them and which should I go for and why?
What is a reasonable price to pay for a kit? These are all new to me. Is self installation pretty easy?

RSD's kit is $285. Kinda pricy. Anyone know anything about WCC's kit? (West Coast Corvettes) their kit is $180 and looks to be right along lines with RSD's kit. Other than the stainless steel lines. Looks like the hard lines go right in.

I bought the RSD kit a well. The quality of the solenoid and bracket are excellent. The one thing that really bothered me about their kit was the line that goes from the solenoid to the ABS module connects to the factory line instead of replacing it. It leaves a lot of line bunched up by the alternator. Looks sloppy for what they charge for the kit. I fabricated up a hard line, but not everyone is comfortable cutting and flaring brake line. Take a look at Carteks setup, would probably go with that if I had to buy another one.

I've had a cartek unit in my car for almost 8 years. It is a really easy install and they have a good setup. http://www.cartekracing.com/Products...s/LineLock.htm
