DSE subframe connectors

Chevrolet Camaro (1970) - 1970 Camaro Project

I decided on the Detroit Speed Engineering subframe connectors for the ground clearance that they provide. While they are much more involved in the installation, I felt that they are also the stiffest option. I will finish the installation by welding the front subframe to the connectors and using solid body mounts which will effectively make it a full frame car. I want these installed before I begin the 4 link rear suspension conversion.
