Where did the strut bars go?

There use to be so many options. Now it's white line and a T3. Are there any others that triangulate and keep the stock air filter on a 12a?

I guess it depends on what year... I think SA are different but on my 83, i have the Whiteline (https://www.autoanything.com/suspens...7A3817943.aspx) and I have stock air filter with stock snorkel. I did have some difficulty with my hood hitting it because my hood had delaminated slightly but once I was able to fix that.

Racing beat doesn't sell there's anymore. I would love to find a triangulated racing beat or re-speed, but I thinks those are jewels now days.

They do come up for sale here and there. Make a post in the classifieds section here on the forum and I bet there's a good chance that someone has one that they would like to sell.
