 got the race brace in today and peddles mounted  toyota supra carrier    I got these for the front but the a-arm design was going to be way to long 126in wheelbase. with the beam it should be 106 in. So i"m going to use them on the rear, if they hold up.  about ready to set the engine up and start making mounts |

So your front beam is in too stay. Not removable |

If I hadn't set up my bumper to be removable I would have welded my beam in also. I think its more secure and if properly braced should not be any more prone to bending than any other tube. |

The v6 is only 200 hp but the torque is what counts its 265. And yes I thought about a v8 but the weight versus power and torque and money didnt seem worth it , in stock form that is. If or when i do an upgrade it will be a turbo suby or an all aluminum v8 , maybe when the kids get grown lol.. |

if you get the chance pick up a corvette center. i believe a mid 80's can be upgraded to a dana 44 inturnals.  this is a buddies he has a 350 with a 400turbo more or less the same thing your doing just his is 160inch wheel base
