competition engineering C3031 Camaro frame rails

[maro67]

Does anyone out there have experience with the 2x3" frame rails from Competition Engineering (p/n: C3031)? I am just starting to install the DSE mini tubs and I dont particularly like the idea of notching the oem frame rails. Also I like the idea of 2x3x.083" frame rails vs the oem formed sheet metal rails. If anyone has used these in a project what are your thoughts (likes and dislikes) and could you please post some pictures.

Thanks

They go straight back and will require major mods to the truck floor to work.

The Competition Engineering frame rails move in farther than the DSE tubs. Kiss your Fuel tank goodby along with your trunk floor and shock mounts. I used the frame rails and the weld in sub-frame connectors in mine. I liked how they worked well together If you weren't planning on using weld in connectors I'd just cut and plate the factory frame rails many people have and many people beat on their cars and I've never heard of any problems. If you were wondering the side of the tub to the fender pinch (without rolling them yet) is 18.5" now.
