Which MBC

Any preferences on what you guys use?

Is it worth forking out for one from the likes of Turbosmart? Apparently a simple ball and spring one is the best to use.

I'm just using a simple one made up out of brass pneumatic fittings on a brass T with a stainless ball bearing, spring, nut and bolt. Works well for me and I just made a simple steel bracket and bolted it to the strut top so it's easily accessible.

I'm not a fan of the fancy looking ones and I like the ability to easily strip and clean mine with no seals or bearings to wear, it's all metal on metal.

Forgive the dirt, I need to clean it soon. I'm going to make a better bracket for it soon from stainless, this was meant to be a quick bracket to get it on the car and it's worked so well I keep forgetting to make a new one.
