Kermit, Phil,
I hate to see you guys sour over differences of opinions. Can we focus on the hardware modification only?
So here is my take on Phil's concerns:
* need to use the right foam, too much expansion a concern
* need to use the right foam, corrosion a concern
* current CSVT perfect as is, no need for foam upgrade
Kermit and others:
* which is the cheaper alternative foam?
* where do we inject the foam?
* how much difference will this really make?
What I gathered so far(mainly based on Demon's experience):
* Home Depot stuff ok
* inject through holes on the bottom
* front two rails and rear two rails
My addtional thoughts/questions:
* what about the rocker panels that runs from front to rear?
* what about the A/B/C pillars that provides the torsional strength?
* what about the front subframe that control arm is attached to?
* when foam is injected should the car be off the ground so after it hardens it is preloaded?
* shouldn't we look for minimally expanding foam(max density and hardness)?
* who else has done this besides Demon?
