purchashed and they did the install on mine and its great. very nice and tight but i was still able to get my head liner back installed. fixed bars to me are no big deal as well and provide a bit more strength.and nice fitment between door bar and dor panel. just watch your fingers as you close the door.

Lol yea beer is cheap. No the SCR is my static compression ratio. I posted in my signature so I can't forget it. Best I've had mine is 11.75. Didn't get any good cold air runs last year with wife being prego and due in oct. I'm hoping to dip below 11.50 this year and consistently running high to mid 11s even in summer heat
