Well spohn isnt shipping the tubular ones yet, and I ordered the Alstons and they're great but the spohn crossmember for my T56 is right where they bolt up , anyone have sfc's on a car with slp single cat headers AND a T56 ????

Mine aren't installed, but the global west ones definitely don't interfere with the T56 because they only run down the sides. I don't know about interference with the SLPs, but you can try the exhaust board--at least with those you eliminate the T56 as a variable...

Been there, done that. Sorry to tell ya that you'll need to
get a hacksaw on the Spohn crossmember and trim off an inch or so on each side to clear the alston's.

I have a T56, spohn crossmember and torque arm, spohn (single cat) SFC, and SLP headers and Y-pipe, No clearance issues to speak of.

There's an excellent shop in Tampa that could make you a set for a decent price. Look up PEP in the phone book. Where in Tampa are you? I dont know many decent thindgen guys out here.

TNC, hopefully i'll have the car on the road soon, just finished the gauge panel, now i've gotta finish the wiring, and body work / paint, gonna just hack the xmem a little since i've already got the sfc's. If you're out in land o lakes you may have seen me out there in my 94' a few times before the wreck, teal with silver emblems, I go out that way quite often

Yes, I had to trim the pass side of the Xmember. It interfered with where the sfc was welded on.
