What you have should work fine, but would be better if you could cleanly thread the webbing on the arm outside the shock mount. Might not be possible with your setup though.

Too old, are you offering a free chassis upgrade to a loyal customer

. How about a straight trade for a new 289FIA turn key (I'll take mine with a simple 347/5.0L Ford stroker motor)
As for mounting the straps on the outside of the shock pivot point, I keep it on the inside as I cross the rear straps to keep the car from potentially shifting on the open trailer. Something I never worried about with my E track and wheel bonnets.
Thanks guys, always nice to have a second eyeball when it comes to these things.
