Is there any other company that sell swap crossmembers for Novas. Bowtiehttp Overdrives is really high.

Greetings,

If you have a saw and welder at your disposal you can buy one of those universal drop crossmembers. You cut the tube to the width you need then weld it to the end plates. Then drill holes into the side of the subframe and bolt it in place.

A turbo 400 crossmember can be made to work. I think the mounting holes just need to be elongated.

Good luck,

If I remember correctly, When we took out the 305/2004r out of a friends cutlas the 350/th350 went in with the stock crossmember. Assuming this is correct, a TH350 crossmember should work, if not, make it.:devil:
