Default Cutout ???s

I use to have a butterfly-valve style cutout and it didn't seem to seal really well. So I had it rebuild and then sold it, BUT now I miss being able to open it up going through a parking lot or when someone pulls wanting to race.

Who makes a really good quality cutout, or is there such a thing.

I have heard of a guillotine style that is supposedly the best, but I haven't heard too much about them.

the guillotine ones are the best, but from what i have seen, they are a bit more expensive.

I didnt research before i bought my cutout switch and got a QTP = / worst peice of junk ive ever bought. I dont even have it on my truck anymore.

Yeah, I know QTP are pretty much the worst.

Who makes the guillotine style cutout??

I wish someone just made a manual 3", that would be so much easier and more reliable IMO.

doug's headers makes some very nice guillotine style cutouts and also noweeds makes some great ones as well.

i've dealt with both and they're both top notch in my book.. but yes, they're both pricey.

3"cutout, or 3"cutout open/closing device?

because i know Mr. Gasket makes a cutout with a built in "pull style" closing devise, you pull the lever to open it, and push it back in to close it. i think jegs and summit carry it.
