lightest K-member?
Who sells the lightest LT1 K-member? UMI's saves 25 lbs. over stock. Spohn offers a chromoly version, but its expensive. BMR's weighs 24.5 lbs. with motor mounts. Anyone else sell K-members for LT1s? Any drawbacks of any of the afore-mentioned? Your knowledge will be appreciated. Thank you.

More of a suspension and chassis topic but here is an answer...
All are within about 4-5 pounds of each other. The UMI looks to be a quality piece. Cant go wrong with Spohn... EVER! The BMR piece is the good quality/good price deal. I'd shoot a message over to UMI and see what theirs weighs in at.

stock lt1 k member is 44 pounds, look at tyburne or w/e the site is, they sell a pa racing k member in chromoly, for 449, that weighs 14-18 pounds
the mild steel weighs 19.5-21 and is only 290 bux! looks to be a good piece, if you have any doubts add some welds to the joints...

Anybody heard of Anthony Jones Engineering. www.ajeracing.com is the site. They sell a cm k-member for $569. Is this a strong k-member? At least strong enough for daily driving with little street abuse?
