I already spoke to Kyle Tucker on this issue and suggested that they need to develop a rear sub frame kit that was already notched. Although, I did find this company that is developing rear sub frame rails mandrel bent out of 11 gauge steel. Here is their link http://autoweldchassis.com/cp.ivnu

Take a look at http://www.21stcenturystreetmachines.com/products.php

Quoting: "The 21st CSM medium tub kit utilizes a stout 2x3x.125 mandrel bent tube as the foundation of the frame rails, replacing the thin walled 4 channel of the original unibody. The rail follows the contour of the floor and trunk pan necessitating a minimal amount of sheet metal work. The rail is welded in place and utilizes mid and rear crossmember to strengthen the rear clip for high horsepower applications. The trunk pan extensions and wheel tubs are included and necessitate a minimal amount of welding."
