Overall Assessment

Customers appreciate our product's confirmed qualities despite installation complexities. Several note that diligence and patience during fitting yield satisfying results. The compatibility with a rear sump oil pan when installing a 351 c was well-received. The motor mount kit's accommodation stands out, with customers praising its perfect fit. Some customers believe our product offers better usability compared to competitors. However, advice includes careful preparation due to bolt length and hole alignments. While the installation might be tedious, customers confirm that the quality, practicality, and main features enhance the product's overall value.

It is not easy to get the frame rails squeezed together to install this. I have installed weld on kits and found it much easier than drilling all the holes and fitting this. Weld on is quite a bit cheaper as well.

Would Recommend

Consider the weld on version

This crossmember is well-made. Given the extra cost over the weld in version, as well as the difficulty of drilling all those holes. I would seriously consider the welding version on the next build. A great option if you are not able to weld.

Follow the instructions carefully, pay extra attention aligning and squeezing the frame rails. Measure carefully twice and it will fit nicely. I also purchase Speedway's Mustang II front suspension and it matches up perfectly.

40 years of building cars have never had so many issues. Poorly engineered none of the bolt holes line up every thing has to be drilled. Had to buy longer bolts most bolts are too short. Lots of sledge hammering and clamping to line up components. Very dissatisfied for the money paid for this kit. Buy the weld in unit its much simpler to install. Even the motor mount kit doesn't fit properly needs spacers and longer bolts.

I liked the unit. take your time and this crossmember fits in nice. i found out if you are putting in a 351 c you will have to use a rear sump oil pan. i did my crossmember install by my self,and you can do it with the front sheet metal still on the car. like i said take your time, it took me about 3 days in my spare time . and the motor mount kit fit like a glove. hats off to speedway motors.

I asked a previous question about which hub to hub kit to use with this crossmember and you recommended suspension kit 91034202. I noticed that kit comes with stock spindles. My other question is can I get dropped spindles substituted instead of the stock ones? I would like my tires tucked up inside the fenders instead of the whole tire showing.
