Lightweight K-members now available for 3.8's

[Rob 94Hawk 319]

Sorry, been too busy with work and family stuff to post.

12SecondV6, that k-member from P&A, doesn't look like a "turn-key" type installation. And quite frankly, looks a bit scary to me. I build my cars to do road racing, more so that just straight line racing, and wouldn't want to put that k-member through the type of stress that the BMR can and has handled. The BMR one is directly drop in, all you might need to do is find some nuts for the backside of the mounting pads. I don't see the stock rag joint located in your pics, how much fabbing was needed to make that k-member fit? With the BMR one, you can also order it to use the Pinto rack to delete the PS.

I'm not trying to flame or anything, so don't take it as that.. I'm just wondering.

I checked with my shop www.eastcoastsupercharging.com and they confirmed that it was a drop in k member.
No modification whatsoever.
I do not know what a stock rag joint is. Mine is the 'drag' k member which I decided on because I do not run a sway bar. There are no connections for a sway bar on this k member because I chose it this way.
I guess you are just a BMR guy.
This works for me.
I am not scared to drive it on the street.
The shop has had many people take a look at my bird with the k member, lower a arms, and manual steering rack.
They have pictures of it also to show people.
I am one of the few that has done this through them and my shop was quite happy with the install.
Many people are in awe with the clean install, look, handling, and weight reduction that this kit offers.
It saisfies my needs.
