How do they attach the new tubs to the body and frame? I know a lot of people use aluminum and some people use steel. Just never been involved to see how its done

Pretty car, as I said that about the shots from autorama. What's certified lower, 25.5 or 25.2? I think I asked this the last time you gave us an update, but this is on stock style suspension? What did you do with the rear subframe??

More pics.... The cage is basically complete so the rearend needs to be shortened/hung and the mini tubs installed. The KTS team is definately getting their part done. I hope my new heads will be complete this week so I can work on actually having a complete ready to run long block this time!
