[QUOTE="DocB, post: 9757178, member: 64184"] We finally finished the install of the lower and upper FLSFCs. I did a review of most connectors readily available and this is what made most sense to me, from a structual engineering standpoint. Lower-Steeda. Upper-Griggs full length. The kit needed quite a bit of massaging to make it fit. We also did a bit of self engineering for added stiffness. Block welded the lowers to the uppers so now they are essentially one unit. Never seen that done anywhere before, but it sure does stiffen things up. Since it was our first time, it took longer than expected. As far as instructions-let's just say it's a good thing we're pretty good at fabrication and can think on the fly. It was alot of work, but well worth it for me. Alignment is very important to me, and you can't align a wet noodle. All parts got 3 coats of POR-15 and a final coat of Chassis Black. All work performed by Jim Rymdeko and Bruno Stockinger at L&M Engines.
