Yea no ****, what did you break? And when you wheelie, what hits when you land? Just the K-Member and exhaust? My goal is for my car to do something liek that after my 383 build, hehehehe

That's a main reason why I kept the stock K-member.. it can take a few hits on the street and keep everything more safer than a Tubular one.

It actually didn't break anything.... It folded the madman SYA bars completely under the oil pan all the way back to near the flexplate. The bracket that is welded to the k-member to support the manual steering rack took a pretty good hit and it moved my steering rack about 3" up on one side.....

The oil pan had minor road rash as did the tranny pan and the header collectors took small little dings on the bottom primary tubes...

Overall seeing as how I lifted and all the cars weight came down full force the SYA bars did a FABULOUS job of minimizing the damage.... best 80 bucks i ever spent. I have another set on the car now even though I have wheelie bars just in case i broke my wheelie bars....

Nice..glad you got out of that one without any major damage. I've seen a few Oil Pans destroyed on cars lifting the wheels..
