long or short subframe connectors?

im fixing to put subframe connectors on my 88 lx but wich one is best i keep seeing short and long ones? im really just staying on street with occasional weekend strip. but i want this thing tight im going to also add rollcage and tourqe arm with upper and lower control arms and tubular k member with control arms. is there any thing else i can do? im going with a 8 point cage.

i would say long are the only way to go. Tie them in with your torque boxes and never have to worry about the sub frame again.

thats what i was thinking but i got one more question some people tell me one thing then other tell me another. right now the lx is a 2.3 but i have a 302 im building for it with a aod should i wait to install all my suspension stuff till after the v8 is in or would it b allright to do now and put 302 in l8tr? ive been told that i need to have all my weight and stuff in there?

buy the long ones and weld them in
