You would! How's yours coming anyway? Is the house and the wife giving you enough play time? If your still having trouble, think about having Brian build you a really wide but short one. You could mount it at the front almost flat and duct air in from a front lip maybe?

Thanks guys, I think I'm still on target for it running sometime in the spring. It will be a rolling monstrosity, but I'll leave it rough till all the tweaks are done then rip it apart and make it look purdy.

I just got a call from Bruce at Eyeball Engineering and he's done with my chassis stiffeners, so apparently those will be shipped out shortly. $450 for 2 sets of jig bent stiffners and hardware ain't too bad I don't think. If you have been following along, I tried to build my own a long time ago and it was really difficult and not nearly as strong as jig bent ones, so I'm very happy to part with the cash.
