I'm glad to see that none of the stock mounts needed to be moved, someone told me that when you get mini tubs you need to relocate your upper shock mounts...

It looks like they are in the stock location in the pics, so that's good...

I talked to Tyson a while back about doing my cage, and I figured I would do the mini-tub to offset some of the weight when adding the cage...

Yeah I have already spopken to Tyson about this before, and right now I am trying to brake the bolt-on LT1 record, it is at 11.805 and I am running 11.860...

Once I break it and get it a little lower for the LT1 folks I am going to install the heads, cam, and other things I have sitting here waiting to go on that will drop me well below 11.50 (hoping for 11.0's N/A stock bottom end LT1) where I need a bar. At that point I will be getting the full cage and all the other stuff, including Mini tub, PAF torque arm, and having Tyson scale the car and help setup the suspension, but untill then I am biding my time and saving my money while I shoot for this record...
