That CHE K-member looks solid! I'm also thinking of the CHE LCA's.

Thanks for the pictures.

Bump!

I just did this. My premium 07' GT didn't even have a factory installed k-member!! The difference is astounding. The engine does not move when you crank it, you can feel the vibration in the key when you turn it. Steering and handling give more feedback and respond better, but the best part is the reduction power loss and the ease of shifting. Remember the first time you test drove a GT? That's what this feels like.

Excellent write-up JTR1.....!!
But, don't you need to check the front end alignment after changing K-members..??

Would like to hear who with LT headers has been able to use this. I looked under my car and with Bassani LT's it looks highly doubtful. Headers in the way of the torque limiters.

Heavy Duty Motor Mounts to replace the factory "MILF mounts" as some call them may be a solution for those with LTs that can't use the brace.

Thanks for the write-up! Been thinking about this mod.

For those with shaker scoops...I guess you won't see your shaker shake anymore with this mod.
