This is engineering at it's very best. I had the opportunity to see a completely assembled DSE subframe after it had already been installed on a '69 Camaro, and with the front clip removed. All I could do was to marvel at the overall construction, the welding, the engineering, the parts used, and the powder-coated finish. I just stood there and stared at what I call a "work of art." Actually I got down on my hands and knees to get a closer look at the construction, as I used to weld, and I always enjoy looking at the craftsmanship of others. This is an excellent piece of work, as you would come to expect from a couple of former GM engineers.

that is very cool. I used to work for a company that made hydro-formed roof rails for cars in Aluminium. the investment in tooling you guys have made is noteworthy in itself but the product is the best I've ever seen. You must sell them in volume or it just wouldn't be worth it. I think for the press and one tool we paid $1.5m

Well that's a shame, I wanted one for my home garage.
