I mounted above the frame rail because of a lesson i learned the hard way, when i had my last chevy layd out i went out draggin for a whole night and was shooting videos with my local car club. I picked up a road dot and it shot through my gas tank. I was doing 65 and had a full tank of gas while throwing about 50-60 feet of sparks. Very scary!! So i want this one as far off the ground as possible.
That's my main concern having the front and rear drop member. The bed floor will be raised, so I'm not real worried about how high it sits. The Boyd's 67-72 tank according to their dimensions online won't fit between porterbuilt cross braces on my 65.
