Mounts arrived

Spohn shipped quickly (certainly a different experience from my SFC's from years back).

Finally received the Skulte crossmember. Almost like he forgot about it from January. Nice piece, though, weighs a lot less than I expected.

As you might recall, had to give up on the Trans Dapt plates because of interference with the AC compressor.

Re: Mounts arrived

Nice... I wouldn't complain if you felt like taking rough measurements of that tranny crossmember (angles & lengths). My plan is to use the crossmember that I've got coming as a "rough draft", & modify it a bit for exhaust clearance...

(I hope...)

Re: Mounts arrived

That skulte piece looks nice. I am pleased with the Drews c member but I did beef it up some and I still doubt its as strong as that one
