Frame strengthening?
All you big boys out there running mucho hp, have you had to add something to your frame to handle the stress? I know some people have bought a hardbar or roll cage, but alot of people do that for cosmetic reasons, cuz they like the way they look.
I have already noticed a few squeaks and rattles, is it really necessary to strengthen the frame?

Reinforcing the frame isn't necessay for the street. Track usage might dictate some reinforcing the mid chassis. A safety strap bracket for the driveshaft should even be used for the street. Those rattles you hear - they're normal!
