No I am sorry I didn't miss the point the initial post was about using the proper plates in a street car versus the taller bigger ones. Davis said the taller ones could be used as he said they did on the race car. I said that was fine for a race car but welding the plates to the cross member on a street car would cause a vibration that would resonate through the whole car. I stand by what I said. Street is street and race is another story, and I have done both. "Doc" ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Yahoo! Autos.

>Doc, Once again YOU MISSED THE POINT! I think everybody agrees that welding the steel plates to the crossmember is not for a street car. Davis is correct, the question was....CAN THE 'TALL' PLATES BE USED. The answer still is YES. 'The Mix'
