Not sure if he knows what he will be getting into with the big motor and headers which are very close to the upper A-ram bolts.
Jeffstar I do use a spoiler sometimes, but it really hasn't helped. After the new front tires and the alignment, I'll give it another try.
Mike or anyone familiar with the Mustang--What structural parts are the 6 point bars attached too? I suppose the ones that go to the rear floor boards are welded to the torque box, but where to they attach to the front of the car and in the trunk? Are big plates added? Just wondering how much I can add and then later possibly remove should I want to cut the bars out.
Frdnut--Sorry I do not have any witnessed info on whether the Calvert shocks recover or not. I've asked a couple of people after my runs and they weren't paying attention. I will make it a point and try to have an 1/8th mile spotter this week.
Good Luck at the T&T Jim!

Dennis,
If you do not wish to weld plates to the floor you could use this alternative plate on top of the floor board with a plate on the bottom of the floor board with 4 bolts through the plates sandwiching the floorboard then weld your bars.
