I am trying to decide between these, or the US Cartool mini tub kit that I already have. It seems like if the AMD parts fit good it would be a cleaner and easier install.

I think this is a no-brainer and I am just totally pissed that they've come out with these because I just did mini tubs the old school way a little over a year ago.

I haven't finished mine yet but I did cut two new AMD inner housings to get started (original was a mess). So now they might get me for another two housings. Sheesh. They should've been making these all along. 69 road runner A12 ex-racer 71 Duster w/ a 400 Shiny paint causes stress.
