The diffs are also from Kirkham. Although Hi tech have the means to do the diffs , It was felt that a buy out of both the diff and body would sweeten the deal as well be far more beneficial and cost effecient to both parties. Especially under the present economic situation.
You are right in saying a whole lot of love has to be put into an ally body Tony.
Hope that ends the speculation.

Just to clear this up...any of the (4000/6000/7000/8000 Aluminum) CSX's that are sold to the public, are purchased through Shelby Distribution...I just wanted to make that clear..."joe smith" off the street cannot called Kirkham and say they want an aluminum CSX car (289 or 427 Body Style)
I just wanted to throw that out there...there are many people out there are not "club cobra" hourly visitors...so...lets also speak to the "general" population.
Thank you.
