Well I got to Englishtown mega early last Wednesday drove the car for like 5 hrs before I had to start the drift event. Seems like my new X member and control arms are working well. I didn’t like the 1st x member setup I tried. So I made a tubular x member and a new setup for the control arms. Now I can just bolt my setup in any fc with no mods to the frame. The car handles very well. No more Sr Fc push that others get. Ill have to try and take a few pics of the setup. I’ve thought about making mount kits but..... Time will tell

If you make mount kits that'd be great. My dream is a 4g63 FC. My LT1 isn't even running yet and I already miss boost
