i think i saw a buildup from Quik or someone like that... white silverado... anyways.... is there a reson for so few people to run that setup or is there someone making them??

and i hear good things about the long bar setup..... but what are the advantages and disadvantages to using them?? kind of a nooB question, but i was just curious

that setup will be easy to fab yourself if your not afraid to weld some tabs to your frame. dominations looks like a badass bolt on kit for those who are afraid to chop and weld their rides.

What kind of CAD program are they using. Let me know if you guys need any help, I use all the major programs at work. I can help you out on measurements for a 1500 ECSB too if need be.

Let me know if you need mass produced pieces. I have done cad/setup work for a fab shop that has a computer controlled oxy/acetylene and plasma table. Download drawing to computer and let it go to town.
