      How to square subframe to body?

      Man it shouldn't be this tuff. I really need to know how to correctly square the factory front subframe to the body. I am going to be welding in sfc and want to make sure it is perfect!

      Search a bit. There is a thread somewhere here with instructions and measurement points posted by Dave Pozzi.

      I have the specs for your frame if you need them, but my installation specs are for a 3rd gen Nova. I would have to get the specs at lunch

      Yea, there are body specs floating around somewhere that you will need. Also there are factory holes (if i remember correctly) in the middle mount location that line up with holes on the body so that gets you close, then if you measure everything 10 or 20 times to make sure it is square then you can tighten it all down and start welding

      Be sure the front sheetmetal is on the car and all gaps are good before welding in the sfc's. Even if the sf is squared in the body. Especially in an early Camaro where the hood aligns on four sides. You might still need to tweek the sf.
