A few ?? on my bolt-in SFC I noticed that on my SLP bolt-in SFC that the middle brace that ties to the center of the car on each side is now touching the floorboard. I used to get a finger in between the subframe and the floorboard but now it right against the floorboard. Is there anything I should be alarmed about or just keep trucking.......All help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Yup, that sounds like the problem to me, i would think you'd be able to tell by looking at it whether it was bent. Id guess you bent it jacking. you jacked a whole side up from the middle of the sfc? If so that prolly enough weight on it to bend it some.

I was thinking of getting SLP SBC also, I didnt figure jacking by it would bent it up like that. From fitting a finger to it being virtually flush? Are these not tough enough to jack with or what? Not trying to jack your thread, I dont want the same thing to happen to me if I get em LOL..
