How much clearance do you have between the bumper cover and the bar running up where the chute bag mounts? On mine that bar keeps running the paint off my bumper cover since its touching it. I was thinking about trying to move it out a little so I don't have to keep repaining the bumper cover.

I think those eight 7/16 bolts on the rear subframe will hold just about as well as the weld on the tubing where the chute line attaches. May even be as strong as the eight 3/8 bolts that hold the four brake calipers on the car ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)
My main concern would be those bolts pulling through the sheetmetal, it depend show fast you go and how big of a chute you use as well. I would assume anyone planning on going 170+ would have their chassis guy make a chute mount along with their SFI cage as opposed to a bolt on setup.
