I have dabbled in getting these the last 2 years as a winter project while the car is parked. John has my e47 ko4+ running like a champ and it seems about every time I go log im touching up the paint on the top rear corner of my drivers door due to body flex. I installed frame connectors on my old 94z28 and of course my 63 nova and got a ton of improvement in that. So I'm wondering how many guys have them, how hard are they to install and what have you seen as the benefits of having them. Thanks ahead of time.

 

They were pre installed on my new SS/TC. I went to Powell's shop to get them installed on my first Balt. Took about 4 hours to install. Drilling floorpan, bolting in, gluing to underside of frame properly, etc.
Car feels way more solid with them installed. No more flex. I consider them a must-have.
Having the single jacking point built into them is just icing on the cake!

 

Thanks for the feedback!

 

Ive always been interested in these

 

Some pics.

Damn. I want these so bad, just for the jacking point alone!!

What do they weigh roughly?

 

Lol wow that must be nice

 

just love seeing these pictures. Still looks the exact same now.

 

the increase in stiffness is worth the weight

 

Do you have them?

They are chrome molley so I'm betting they aren't that heavy.

 

Can't remember the weight. No too much though.
All I know is they work. No more flex. And single jacking point is worth the price of admission.

 

I wish I did. They're on the list, probably next summer though.

 

Does Adrian have them.

 

Not yet. I think he wants to make it to the track with the new oil cooler first

 

Adrian needs powell. lol

 

^^^this lol

 

You need to make a road trip to CO to hit High Plains Raceway with Adrian

 

Yeah no kidding a Powell race day at HPR would be awesome!
The UCR's are most definitely on my list, along with the PRS floating front rotors.
But the order is:

1. Resolve overheating issues (hopefully the oil cooler will take care of this)
2. Upgrade fueling system and build top end for 8200rpm (will happen this winter)
3. UCR, floating rotors, CF Stingray Z hood (hopefully by summer of 16)
