It will probably be a 3" stainless tube

 

Well 2.5" NPS has an outer diameter of 2.875". I'd imagine NPS sizes would be more readily available/cheaper.

If you're making it removable, how will you attach it to the body of the car? Will you drill holes in the engine bay walls and use rivet nuts or weld nuts? Or you could weld on a thick flange with threaded holes and attach the cross member to these welded-on flanges? There's so many possibilities, lol.

 

Will use welded flanges and bolts

 

either way there will be 2 thick welded flanges threaded in. most likely arp 12pt SS bolts will be used to secure.

 

Really liking it looks good. I'd like to get my bay like this sometime later on but is there any cons once is done?

 

Cool, looking forward to seeing the progress pics and how it all turns out.

 

 

your wish is my command lol.
