Good catch, I’m gonna have to play around and see.

That bar is actually part of the frame connectors. I’m sure it’s completely overboard but I set out to make the chassis stiff as possible.

Re: 69 Camaro B/S
 

What about making a rear driveshaft loop off of that bar?

Very nice build by the way sir.

Re: 69 Camaro B/S
 

Thank you.

That’s not a terrible idea. There is another cross bar at the front of the frame connectors and the front driveshaft loop is built off of that.

Re: 69 Camaro B/S
 

I never thought about connecting the frames left to right. But there is a bunch of stuff that I’m not smart enough to think of. A cage got ours stiff. I may have to make something and see if it helps. Thanks for sharing

Got the 2nd set of lowering blocks installed today. While I was down there I decided to check on the drive shaft vs fuel lines and thankfully this is close as it gets.

Here is a picture of frame connectors. I did get the ok from D1 tech on this. I still have mix feelings about it. It’s definitely overkill and way heavier than I expected. I do like how the drive shaft loop is part of it. Maybe down the road I’ll have one fabricated from CM to loose some weight.

Re: 69 Camaro B/S
 

Today I got the car on the scales....looks like I can make A... I’ve got some options to move weight around but what do you think??

Re: 69 Camaro B/S
 

Is that with you in it? Can’t wait to see it run!

Re: 69 Camaro B/S
 

Yes just short fuel
Some weight installed in trunk

Re: 69 Camaro B/S
 

Very nice build, I also cannot wait to see it run.

I have a chassis stiffener like yours on my '68 Mustang. Definitely tightens up the frame. Mine is from Total Control, a part of Chris Alston's ChassisWorks. Where did you get your unit?
