Like that the wheels lay down (less wind resistance).

I guess my sunroof will be useful after all

TIA
No problem.

With that much torque you could twist the chassis.

I doubt I can twist the chassis, these cars take a lot more abuse and hold together unlike the e36 bmw chassis . There is some big boys running with 900 lbs of tq with no issues to the chassis, and that's from 4500rpm to redline

Installed RS Motor Mounts today, I can say that the car feels crisper. I did this in anticipation of my new alignment tomorrow!

Note to all: Wait for engine to cool before working on it (second degree burns on my right hand! = dork)
