Question for the stick guys

My only issue with Browell is having to take out the second mortgage on my house to buy one... I'll stick with Quicktime. Either one is a huge improvement over Lakewood both from a quality and weight standpoint.

This was not my experience. The cost of my Browell was very competitive with the Quicktime. The main difference being shipping because you cannot order the Browell from Summit and get free shipping. I would call Brain and ask for a quote.

The Browell is an awesome piece and Brian is very helpful.

Browell hands down!

A friend with a max wedge car has the Quicktime. Getting the fork right was a lot of work and the welds broke between the trans mount face and housing. For my new car it will be a Browell.

Browell hands down. You can get the window clocked where you want it, and it was dead on with alignment.

It was inline with QT's similar bellhousing in price, but was custom to where I wanted the window clocked. It has been money well spent, and clutch adjustments are very easy.

The best advice is regardless what brand you get, buy one with a window.

I have had both. They were both very nice and way lighter than the older Lakewood designs. The bro well was a lot more than the QT, but I did add the billet fork option and that was worth doing! The bro well has a little more room, and that is helpful. I think we are talking stockers here.
If you have a superstock car or a car that can legally run the deeper alum bell, browell and Boninfante both have super nice aluminum bells with windows. The Boninfante is a bit lighter. I think around 2500 for each by the time you get a fork
