I'm sure the frame on the Speedtech is alittle narrower, but the bigger issue is just the header and steering shaft. The Camaro we are doing is tight on the headers with the stock position steering shaft. The frame is just narrower in that area over the DSE sub. With the UCA position of the Speedtech makes it a battle. But that geometry position is the gain in clean slate design.

Granted we have Porto type LT4 headers but it's not much different over the LS headers. Plus the steering column has the electric power assist so that add a few variables.

But doesn't change much at all.
