Please tell me about the different ways to reinforce the longs on the 914. My car is on the rack and it is time to reinforce this area and things are moving too fast for me to keep up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
I have seen the Engman Inner Long Reinforcement kit and the Tangerine Racing Door Sills kit. I think I saw a third kit that reinforced the footwells at the same time as the longs but I can't find that kit again. I'm confused about the different kits, the terms that describe the longs and the different ways to reinforce this part of the car. Please clue me in if you know. I'm not even sure what the difference is between "Longs" and "Inner Longs", if there is any. So, you can assume I know nothing here. Any help is appreciated. Thanks all. |

Doesn't it all depend on what you use it for, or am I a fool for not installing an engman kit when my car was in pieces?
