9" Centered
Here is my 9" Strange rear finally centered. The driver control arm bracket was wrong and other brackets too. I had to go with "adjustable" control arms to get it right. It was shifting 2" to the passenger side, before we "fixed it".

Street Beasts Driver Sidepipe
Here is the Street Beasts sidepipe on the driver side. Another lesson learned: if you use a 351W for mock up and are installing a 302, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE! The 302 is 2" narrower (at the head) and about 1" lower (at the head) than the 351. We had to "adjust" the motor mounts when I put the dummy 302 in.

Steering Rack Problem
Here is a steering rack problem we found: the brackets are wrong, including one being "upside down" from the factory. I guess the "quality guy" was on vacation.

Street Beasts Sidepipes
Street Beasts sidepipe builder makes them to "turn down", not "point out, like "real Cobra's". Needless to say, we "modified them to point straight out, like "real Cobras"
