I fabed the insert to fill the hole in the cross memeber and tacked it into place. Here is a few pics of how I formed it.

I'm just asking because I made custom cross member exhaust cross under to clear my three inch header pipes. They are posted here. Back a few weeks.
The ney sayers were asking about strength. How many of them had a many motors and many transmissions and 100,000 miles of fun!
My 79 Vette was doing 12.70's in the late mid to late 80's with a hot 355 ci and th350
I just went out and the odometer says 163,287 ----- I bought it with 1.3 miles on it in 1980. 79 L-82 Window price was $12,836.37 as optioned They had 5 of them..... I was 21 years old and had money in my pocket and bought it
