Gauging interest in 3-point L-body strut tower bar

[rbryant]

I feel that it would only strengthen the firewall. The bar is provided with a plate along with the bolts that is fastened from the cowl side. This provides a sandwiched design. The firewall at the attachment point is double layered sheet metal from the factory.

I will put a list in the first post with the folks that are interested, if you want one from the first batch let me know in this thread and I will put you in. Thanks Guys!

Can you add a picture of the front and back side of the firewall connection points?

I would be interested but I am not sure if the bar will clear the turbo on my 2.4l holset manifold. I moved the turbo up and to the driver side so it would probably be really close.

Also given that the 3rd point is off center would it be possible to add a 4th connection to the firewall on the driver side (make it symmetrical) and balance the firewall bracing (or is that a bad idea for some reason)?

Nice work.

Not a bad idea at all, a 4th point probably could be added if desired but for now I will stick with this design.

Also, will these be powdercoated or no? Can we opt for powdercoating? I would prefer it to be if this is an option.

[turbo2point2]

Powdercoating is an option I will need to investigate. The company I used, were getting flaky. I'll make a few calls...

Any unsold bars Brian? I have a bar on the 86 S but it's not that nice and certainly not a three point. I had told myself I didn't *need* this but since when does need=want

[Reeves]

Got mine yesterday. Really nice. Took about 1/2 hour to install.
