I like the idea of this kit Ben, but I have a couple of questions. I'm more experienced with the G-body frame than the A body, but they are very similar in many ways, one major one being their inconsistencies.

I'm assuming there are maybe slotted holes, or a little bit of leeway in the attachment areas in these laser cut parts to account for differences in the different frames they may be attached too? And how do different size or condition body bushings come into play given the areas of these kits that attach directly to the body?

I'm all for using braces such as this kit to strengthen the chassis on these cars, I would be just a bit concerned about these kits pulling the chassis, body, or both out of their relaxed state during installation. Or maybe this has already been taken into consideration and is addressed in the installation instructions? One thing is for sure, they can't help but to make the frames much more rigid than in their stock form. When is the kit for the G-Body being released?
