Yeah, Scott's work is awesome and I would definitely get another one from him. The fit up and welds look great. Scott is a great guy and very easy to work with. He's pricing is great with great quality work.

On my Javelin, the plan at first was to splice it into the original frame rails. But after taking some time looking at the original frame and a little luck, it was easier and better in my application to remove the existing frame and build a new front sub.

Thanks,
Jon

I'm still not considering cutting the rails just yet. That cross-member is 2x4 .190 & the LCA cross bars that I have are cold rolled 1.25 solid bar ( Trust me, I have have access to digital measuring tools to locate the the LCA shafts & the smarts enough to make it straight & true . I believe welding it in plus strategic location from Scott & using with his steering arms & sway bar setup I can keep my rails.

Seeing that I'm dead at work I continued with the lower mount with some help from one of our members, I decided to go with a 60.5 track.

Salviggio Auto Design (formally perfection autoworks) has done an AME C6 clip in a Charger and Challenger recently. Slight modification was needed. You may find something on his website showing the install, not sure.

Sooner or later somebody has to hit that market more than whats offered now.

Nice cars on their site! I don't think the tops of the Mopar frame rails are strong enough for the upper mounts. Looks like I'll have to section them & make a stronger rail in that area but keep the stock dimensions to make it unnoticeable. So much for not chopping!

the key word is c5, or c6 thats where the stigma comes in. but aftermarket parts are aftermarket parts. unless everything has a gm part number on it. i am a mopar guy aswell, i used to do "the get there in a straight line as fast as you can thing" but to let the nomenclature used on a part keep you from building the car you want, i don't understand... it would be the same with a mustang rack and pinion, a toyota turbo, how many after market steering columns are gm style. but that dosen't stop them from being used. the key word i think is style. c5 style, c6 style ect.. they are just chassis parts,
i had a friend who ran smallblock fords he would install chevy vales in his ford heads. but are they chevy valves or just valves?

just my $.02
