Why are you folks reinforcing the frames of TR3As? I have always considered
the frame to be one of the strongest of it's class. With boxed rails and an
I
beam "X" in the center it should handle any load a stock or modified TR
engine
gives it. I am running a 302 Ford in mine and have never had a problem with
the frame that I know of.
Best regards,

The only problem I had with mine was when I went over a railroad crossing in
an industrial area too fast. The crossing was very crude. the railroad rail
stood up high enough to hit the frame rails. I peeled back the covering on
the frame rails like a sardine can for maybe an inch or so. My car also
stopped. Instantly. Fortunately, I was wearing a seat which caused some bruising.
