So when are we making that custom rear subframe?

I’m in to help with this project!

No exhaust, no problem, lol.

Yeah exhaust clearance is definitely the biggest issue. I bet you'd end up needing to build a custom section 2 to get around the lower pickup points.

Could this be as "simple" as cutting off the old RCA pickups on the stock subframe and welding on new ones but lower? I suppose you could then use two pairs of ARCAs with coilover rear suspension. I might be able to do some scanning with the Einstar and experimenting on my track car over the winter.

A scan would be awesome if you’re willing to share it! The issue is exhaust clearance, but yes that approach could get you there.
