Thanks for the complements.

I will be tying the frames back together but I'm going to wait until I finish installing the front Chicane coilover bracket just in case there are any issues. I'm not going to weld them back because I need to be able to drop the front frame in order to swap the trans. I didn't know this when I bought the kit but it should not impact me too much. I'm planning to weld 4 pieces of 1/4" x1-1 1/4" flat bar to the front subframe then use some ~6" Grade 8 bolts to thru bolt it to the subframe connector stub that's remaining. I wish I could weld it back but since I saw something similar on Stielow's car I'm pretty comfortable with bolting it...
