I am having my bbk equal length shorty headers installed on my 98 gt by lowering the K member. How much more work is it, if any, to install a tubular K member at the same time? Is it worth buying a tubular K? What brand? QA1?

It will lighten the front end by about 75 pounds and give you alot more room for headers and what not.

75 POUNDS?! I heard maybe 30 pounds. Does anybody know if its worth doing at the same time I install my headers or is it extra work

it won't take much more time to swap the k-member at all since you have to pull the stock one out to put longtube headers in anyways.

I have the k and arm swap on my 97. It was completely worth it. Car handles so much better. Do it.
