Richard:

What style chassis are in the JBL cars, round or square?

According to my drag race buddies, while any chassis can be made strong, the "square style" chassis is the prefered chassis. I personally haven't seen ANY round tube chassis cars come through any of my friends shops in years (All of the cars they are building chassis for are ALL square tube. Doesn't matter if it's a Chevelle, Corvette, Mustang, Torino, GTO, Ford/Chevy/Dodge pickup, etc...).

According to the "experts" on this forum, the square tube chassis is not as good as the round tube and Superformance chose it because they didn't want to spend more for the "ultra" chassis, the 35 year old "original" round style.
