So in the end its close to the same price. Will the SLA be better? Hard to argue with the DSE-Z performance but its also Kyle Tucker driving and $6000 in shocks...
If you cant fab then neither is going to be cheap

THAT is called Homework right there ^^^^^^ we did ours also.
the SLA HAS to be better, but i doubt Kyle will tell you that. LOL we are working with JRI right now to have the single adjustable the standard offering in all the Extreme systems also.

steering column will not need to be changed just shorten the stick out. that column is to integral to the wiring and stuff to just change it.

Not knocking you or your product Blake. I have one of your extreme subrames and I'll also be needing the $1499 headers or I'll figure out another route using hacked up $200 ebay headers who knows.

Just putting it out there so the 3rd gen owners will know about the additional costs.

The steering column is something I wasn't aware of when I bought my subframe from you for my 68 camaro because it wasn't stated on your website at the time. No biggie for me, I just shortened my column to fit. Again just bringing that up if it was an additional cost for 3rd gen owners.

Any idea if the exhaust manifolds and cats that come with the E-ROD motor will work with your subframe? Living in CA, long tube headers are a no go unless I want to spend $500 every 2 years to get my car "smogged".

No idea, looking at the picture in the GM catalog if they look like the LT4 header then maybe but not the lt1 or ls3 or lsa as pictured any way

Retains stock fuel tank but adds a stronger pan hard support ans adjustment on chassis side

Shows rough cut out for the factory frame rail, the new design will make install and cutting very easy

They don't include a rear sway bar with their torque arm suspension. It's a $500 upgrade.

67droptop 09-03-2019 06:58 AM

This upgrade is $14k then plus $3199 for the rear end. They might price them self out of the third gen market.
