I was talking to the builder of a tricked Camaro i like and when i asked him how low they dropped it...he said he did not know exactly but mentioned that the cross-member is 2.25" OFF the ground!

My dumb question for the week is was he referring to the transmission cross-member???

Also, whats the normal BB factory cross-member height from the ground with no suspension mods at all???

Thanks, Chris

He was probably refering to the front suspention cross member, the one under the engine.

the lowest parts of my Nova- the header collectors- are about 6" off the ground. the actual engine crossmember is an inch higher than that. don't know what the spec is for my car with a 26" tire, but it looks a couple inches lower than stock to me.
