My fit fine with the stock engine/trans combo. When I went to an aftermarket oil pan it wouldn't fit any more. Also won't clear with some long tube headers.

about 2lbs. The stock k-member is fairly flexy when the car is under cornering loads, having a brace on the rear of it helps make the car drive a lot more consistent.
if you don't have sticky tires and don't auto-x or open track the car, it's not worth the cost.
