I'm with Greg, these frame rails are thin and GM engineers are probably rolling in their graves right now. If I have problems down the road, it will get thicker rails.
Good discussion, lots of concern, lots of opinions.... But you hit the nail on the head, and I'm glad it came to this final thought. "Original GM frame rail metal thickness and over usage for intended design"

Based on your attention to detail, It will be 10x stronger when you are done with the repair. I like your style.
