Right. it just seems to sit perfectly lol. I was thinking of cutting off the upper and lower seats from the focus subframe so I could use my springs.

That crossed my mind too. Also if you keep the ride height close to mine and are planning to run an 8.8, your floor is going to have to be a bit higher to keep the housing from hitting.

Finally an update.

I pulled her out of the garage. Couldn't get anything done since it was so cramped with the MK3 in there also.

Got the exhaust manifolds on, EGR bung welded shut, Headman collectors on, and the steering rack bracket finished up.

Pics in first post.
