    maybe glass in a 2nd lip an inch or so higher inside the wing to keep it rigid after you trim the bottom for clearance?

    I think he means, glass it in 'before' you trim it to suit so that it retains the shape!

    finished the Dyno session at midnight last night, car runs beautifully, sounds great, not a single leak etc.
    Bit more power through the range with the T Ram, but with a stock bottem end on the motor we won't be revving past 5500 rpm .
    .
    For a car built in a shed in 16 months i'm very happy with it, will stick up some pics after the Mopars .
