Default Interested!!!

How much are the plates and does it include the tubular braces? I'm putting a Tremec TKO 600 in a 66 vette roadster and would like to use a removable trans crossmember if possible.

Looks easier and less expensive than retro-fitting C3 crossmember mounts as I did.

I apologize for getting slightly away from your marketing, but it will give you a bump.

PM sent about the braces added.

Are the added supports needed when the cross member is modified?

No....not at all.The frame here in the thread is for a 68 vert road race themed car,and these really arn't needed.Yes....it will help w/stability,but it is more for show of a racing frame,than anything.This is just putting a tight bolt together joint where the frame is otherwise solid.As long as you check your measurements twice for the cut,then it will be a tight fit.....

I don't have any plans,but if you give me a call.....I can whip something up for you.I syill have the powder coated frame over in the corner,and need to get it out,so I can get you some measurements.
The initial plates in this thread were/are for the C3s,and after looking,and more measurements....I didn't feel they would clear the floor of the C2s(have 63 here I went off of),so I made up another set for the C2s that will clear the floor.
Give me a call,bud..and THANK YOU for your interest. Kevin
