Thanks,
I did alot of looking around and this is hands down the best one.
It looks so nice, Its a shame to have bolt it under the car. I have not weighed it but, it seems pretty light.
I have to add that Chuck is very helpful and answered every question that I had. I Look forward to doing more buisness in the future.

your right bad ***...
so I only have one question, is there at least a gusset under the shock mount tab or is it just welded at the tube? it looks like there is a 1" or so heat mark from a gusset or something welded to the back side of that plate, but I don't see anything on the other side in any of the other pics...

Wow guys, thanks!
My car has been sitting so long that I will settle not nothing less than the best stuff on this build.
With any luck, my goal is to say I'm "one of the fastest" when its compleated.
Thanks again to Madman and Burkhart becouse your makeing my dream come true.

We are very comparable on price. Many of the standard features of our housing are options on others.
One area we are not comparable is track record. Ours is the ONLY fabricated housing sold on this site that has survived in the 7's over and over. Look under a lot of the drag radial cars in Memphis this year.
So I guess once you get past price, there is not much of a comparison.

only the fastest cars run the Burkhart 9" ....period.
I've built alot of 4th gen cars for people over the years, and I have to say in order to really go fast ....and do it over and over again without breaking stuff, EVERY part of the car needs to be of the highest quaility.
Theres no better feeling than doing somthing right the first time, becouse doing it again can cost more in the long run. And could be dangerous.
