Concerns with hard launches with 1200 H/P BBC
Has any racers out there used the S&W brand backhalf prewelded frame on a S10 with a BBC produceing 1200 HP. After looking at what I received from S&W I'm concern with the hard launches that are expected. Any suggestions are appericated?

With that kinda HP available, I KNOW you're gonna tie it all into a full roll cage, ....right? If built properly with lots of triangulation you'll be more worried about getting all those horses to the ground.

You need to pick up the phone and call S&W. That is a quality company that has produced quality parts from fuel cars to street cars. They are not going to sell you an inferior product for your application. If there is concern or question, I bet you they take it back and ship you something new.
