I don't agree with this Sean. The solid A pillar / roof combination on a hatch or coupe provides much more ridgity than our cars (convertibles) will ever have - with the top up or down. In fact, I would go so far as to say the convertible top provides no measurable bracing or structure enhancing quality. I do agree that making a targa without a cage will provide LESS support than a factory convertible because of the structural enhancements made by ASC. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
