I am really surprised this didn't kick up

I think Chrysler should have tied the frame rails together on every unibody car they made. Period. All you have to do is look at the difference on the drag strip of one tied together VS not tied. The one tied together comes off the line much straighter and truer and if the rest of the car is right, when the front tires come back down, you're still straight. Yeah I know "but that's a race car......." Just about everything that makes a race car safer and easier to drive transfers over to the street. I've seen a LOT of Mopars tied together and owned some too. I HAVE YET to see any of them break spot welds. ANYWHERE. Also, where he compares a framed car and says they have bushings to take up flex......people have been using both poly and aluminum body bushings in full frame cars for decades with no ill effects.

I'll put it this way. Even if I leave the stone stock 170 in my 64 Valiant, it's getting US Car Tool frame connectors. They are something that should have been there to begin with. You want to know why Chrysler didn't tie the frame rails together? Simple. They saved the company millions of dollars by not doing so. Chrysler was a cheapass company that saved a penny anywhere they could. If you don't think they knew it would have added strength, you gotta nuther thing comin. Build the car so it'll bend when it already has a suspension.......yeah that's genius engineering. NOT. I love Tony all to pieces but I cannot agree with him here.
