Looks great!
Just wondering, how do you plan on mating the Max-G with the body? Will you make it removeable (i.e. bolts) or will you fully weld it?
I've been kicking around the idea of a Max-G chassis for my car for a while now and I've been going back on forth on the idea of making it removeable or welding it... welding would be the stronger way to go and make the car stiffer, but it would be nice to be able to drop the chassis out in the future, too.

We will weld it solid. the frame comes exactly the inside width of the rockers so it will be welded solid. i see no real reason the make it removable as once the car is done it is done and would be just like a unibody car in one sense.

Awesome. That was exactly my line of thinking-- run the rails right to the edge of the factory rockers and pinchweld, channel the frame up so the bottom of the frame is even with the factory rocker pinchweld, and weld the sucker solid. Plus, the way the center bracing is on the Morrison chassis makes it very easy to do a floorpan and seat brackets-- you can almost get away with using a single piece of sheet over the frame for the floorpan, but I was thinking of bead rolling the floorpan over the "open areas" of the center frame bracing to give it additional stiffness.
I can't wait to see the progress photos of your car. I was thinking of a Max-G chassis fully welded to the body for quite a while now... and your car will be a VERY good example for me to watch the progress of.
If you don't mind sharing more details, what rear suspension setup are you going with? Are you going to use their Tri-4 bar or something else?

Nice :cool:
I like the rear spoiler. Reminds me of the S281 Saleens and '03-'04 Cobras.
