Some people might try and debate that you can do the conversion a lot cheaper by notching shock towers and using either a rear steer rack, or a box, but I wouldn't because you're going to have a lot of extra hours making things work, problem solving, fitting headers, etc. and you'll still be left with a front end that is less than ideal for handling and can't fit a decent sized wheel and tire package up front.

Hi Matt@BOS,

I had a few questions hopefully you could answer. I am between the dse and cortex racing stuff. I have a coyote that is waiting for me in the garage. I was wondering how you would compare the cortex racing set up vs the alumaframe set up from dse.

Dse seems to have a higher quality feel but I am mostly concerned about ride quality in the street and all out performance. I do autocross and road race. The car is mostly a street cruiser but I love to race and plan to race alot more now that the kids are older now.

Any input would be greatly appreciated

Thank you
