Engine cradle help

[camaromann]

I was just wondering who here knows what place/shop or person who could possibly cut out my engine cradle in my camaro and fabricate and weld in a tubular one???? I am trying to shed a few more pounds of the front end. Also, any idea of what that thing would weigh??? Thanks.

not sure about newer ones. But the 60's and 70's are for sure welded on.

no, not the front frame rails. I understand that you can unbolt the entire front section of frame on this car. Im just talking about the part that the engine mounts bolt to on the frame. The big wide section that runs driver side to passenger side under the motor. I just had my entire front end apart and the part im talking about deff. does not unbolt. :headscrat :headscrat
