Well after several months, $ and patience they are done. Brad has a set - hopefully he will post some better pics of the layout. Please see http://engmanparts.com for details

If your cage will be tied into the suspension points, the inner long kit will be redundant. IMHO, it would be dead weight. It's primary reinforcement is the flex in the longs themselves (eliminated by a passenger compartment cage) and the connection at rear firewall (eliminated by tying into the rear console). So if your cage will be cockpit only, there may be some benefit to the inner long kit.
Of course, this is just in my head... I don't know ****. Eric |
