Rear suspension thoughts
I am looking to get some cool race car suspension parts so my car can leave like that LS1 powered maglev train... 
Underside of my car..
UMI and BMR options would be a long style arm and new trans X member, which is lame and more money.
Midwest Chassis offers a chassis mount that they claim will clear.. pics below..
Sent a PM to MWC asking for some more pics, but I am thinking their short arm is the best option. Costs 375 shipped I believe.
Thoughts?

Just get a full length TA and a UMI drag bar with adjustable end links. If your hopes and dreams come true, and you do the turbo build, a full length will benefit you more.
and get red suspension parts

Reading is fundamental?
A UMI or similar will def not clear my X pipe.
Edit: *** it, the cross member piece may have exhaust pipe sitting on it, do not care.
10# sledge shall edit exhaust.

Use a rosebud torch and a hammer and dolly. Will look significantly less hack. That's how I did it.

Yeah, that's what he is really concerned about, making it not look like a hack job.
