Chassis Strengthening

soccerpimp · 03-23-2007

I am about to turbocharge my old 93 5.0 - wanted to know about what steps I should take to make the chassis ready for the added power.. the shocks/struts and rear upper control arms are done... what else? (will a roll cage help alot? and torque boxes?) thanks!

Also use a good Strut Tower brace or drop in a roll cage.
