    Ok,

    I have my frame resting on stand!!
    Where to look for cracks, and what will be the modification I could do to improve strenghtnest?
    I'm going with tubular A-arms, coil over in front, and moser 12 bolt, metco upper arm, southside lower arm in the back. Willwood all around.Is it worth boxing the frame?
    What else?,

    Thank you

    What are your intensions with the car?

    I would box the frame if your making over 500 hp. I'm sure lots of people don't but if the frame is bare then go for it. I've seen some nice frame braces and re-enforcment done. If it was a full race car then I would integrate a roll cage to the frame. Make sure it is all straight before you do anything though.
