I have decided to build a tubular engine cradle instead of the one I before for the v12



I would appreciate a bit of advice before I start, I want to increase the track by 2 - 3 inches per side to accoadate the widebody. Can I move the frame rails out the desired ammount and also move out where the strut towers mount.
Also what size tubing would you go for.

I can't answer your question, but I do have another...

What are you going to do about the tops of the struts? They're going to have to be moved outward by a corresponding amount, or angled inward even more than they are now. If they're angled inward, it will create a whole new set of fitment problems.
