Some recent pics.. Has a little bit of the 3-link in it.
The pics don't show the UCA as it is not in just yet. But the UCA will connect to a couple bars coming off the LCA cross member and there will be a be a couple bars coming off the 1 3/4" bar between the rear frame rails.
The front UCA mount will have a slot to move the angle of the front mounting point. The slot has been radius cut so any adjustment of the front link will not change the pinion angle. It's also doubled up 1/4" steel making it 1/2" thick.
Everything is 3/4" Grade 8 bolts.
More pics to follow in the next couple weeks.

Kept the same frame rails as I have 15" of clearence from the fender lip to the frame rail. With a 315 in the back there is a ton of room still.
This is not a drag car. It's a 3-link, 6 speed car for a reason. It is however going to be certed to 8.50 incase I ever want to swap coil overs around, mount a ladder bar to the existing cross member and put an auto in it. The auto would really help the turbo keep boost.
