just ordered spohn torque arm mount

I layed down the bucks! man that hurt but, I guess it looks like the best stuff I could get though. I got the one for the t56 and the two drive shaft loops. I figure if I hook hard and that driveshaft goes I would like to keep most of my car just hurts seeing all that cash go. I got it in black I kinda wish he offered it bare so I could paint it flat black, my car is real loud and people still mistake it for stock (I have stock tips) I don't want any one to see the arm just sticking out in a bright red paint.

Yay!! I just ordered mine last night with the front loop only. Steve says not to use the rear loop if your car is lowered and mine is (1"). Just want to be safe...

The reason I ordered the Spohn kit is that I just converted from a 700R4 to a G-Force T-5. I was having trouble with the stock torque arm mount and my BMR torque arm and had just about given up when I saw Steve's kit.

After some research, I concluded that the Spohn Torque Arm setup is far better than the stock setup. How can you go wrong with a beefy cross-member, torque arm and driveshaft loop all in one! What a clever design!!

I can't wait to get it installed and get my car on the road!! :lala:

nows the hard part of waiting for it. I hear it takes about 3 weeks. but, the flywheel will be taking about 2-3 weeks as well.

Try waiting 7 weeks for AFR cylinder heads gawd it's been hard hehe.. Got my Spohn stuff last year when swapping in the TH400, quality stuff for sure didn't get a driveshaft loop though, might just make one.
