Hey Brad you were right about my clutch tube. That was my problem. I put in 2 ubolts in the acces where the shifter is. Spaced about 10" apart. That strengthened it considerably. I'm plannng on putting a few welds on those (inside & underneath the car). For where it comes thru the firwall. Would it hold to just weld where it comes thru the firewall. Or does it need to be on the inside? Anyone? Planning on welding monday & want to make sure this will last! Thanks in advance! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
