Default Kmember question?

Guys, new to Fi and yes I've done a search... question is whether or not a BMR kmember, upper/lower A arms and tranny brace is a worth while investment for an Ironblock 408 F1A combo in a 2002 fbody street car?

Thanks, Chris

Is it necissary? No. Is it worth the investment? That would be up to you really. Clearance will be better, and you'll loose some weight, and gain some handling, but its not cheep.

It may be necissary though depending on your clearance with what oil pan you go with.

Thanks. I have the car apart and figured now would be as good a time as any to do the switch. Was just concerned about durability after reading some posts after doing a search.

If done correctly, it should "last" longer than your motor should. I wouldn't be concerned about the longevity, but if you are, there are plenty of us with these mods done to our cars (my Z28 in my sig included) that have had it that way with no issues for years.

Cool, that's exactly what I needed to know.
