has anyone install a MAC brand torque arm?

i have purchased one and would like to know if they are a good investment. I got it for tube design and the built-in driveshaft loop. They bolt into the tunnel/floor, intead of bolting the T/A to the tranny. Has anyone had the floor/ tunnel tear from stress? All help is appreciated SHAWN

Check my website about my travails with this torque arm. Bottom line; yes, I got it to work, but not without some "modifications."

so would you say it is worth it, or should i bail now. Is there anyway to make it simple, before i start drilling?. what i mean is cut the back off like 1 inch or so, so i can bolt it in where they want it (for length). Lastly do yoou have any worries about the tunnel cracking under stress? And did it help the car "hook-up?" Very eager to hear your reply... THE SHAGGY IROC
