Here Bill is installing our Chassis Torsional Plates..... We have to install all 70 1/4 x 28 AN bolts, then tighten them to pull up the plate flat..... then each bolt has to come out and get Lock-tite Blue then go back in and get torqued to 120"inch pounds.

We have to install both plates and they get tied together in the middle and at the front they get tied to the Splitter....

But the Torsional Rigidity of the chassis goes up a 100 times. Which means the suspension works like it's suppose to .... no twisting of the chassis...

It is a lot of work to go thru... but well worth it on a track....







If you look close you can see some of the bottom of the cage we built into KMP259
