Re: umi third gen camaro

Thanks for posting this!

A bunch more pictures of this car can be seen in the two links below, one from our site and one is from Facebook.

https://www.umiperformance.com/news/?page_id=412

https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...1448642&type=3

Also we built those ramps here for ways to display our suspension products at outside shows. We have two older sets for sale if you wanted a set I attached a picture of us building a new set, this set has our '78 Monte on it.

Thanks again for looking!

To be honest the weight loss is minimal. You gain the most from the increased stiffness of the suspension. Critical for a unibody vehicle making more than 500hp.

I wasn't sure if I should post it or not. I knew others would appreciate seeing it as much as I did. I've seen it a couple of times at Carlisle. The first time I saw it I did not have my camera and could only tell stories. The pictures are from the Carlisle 2012 all GM show.

A tubular K member and A-arms do absolutely nothing to stiffen a unibody

Re: umi third gen camaro

Are you able to do work on them with them like that? I think exhaust work would be nice for that lol
