OK there are a couple different ways the subrame connectors can be done (with "realative ease") on the 69 B body/GTX in the sig pic.

We can go 2x2 and have Todd weld them to the subrames only, or 2x3 and run them to the floor where it drops down into the back seat footwell area. I have seen them done both ways, and either one looks good to me.

Which is the stronger of the two?

Does the 2x3+ welding to the floorpan add very much strength?

Gotta say I am not really worried about originality, even though it is a "real" GTX I want to do it as best I can. If that means cutting the floor, the sawzall is ready

On the other hand, if the extra 1" isn't going to add anything, why bother doing it that way?

Not being an engineer I have no idea which is better so please vote for your preference and feel free to post why you think it's better. Thanks.
