Yes but that's where subframe connectors come in. When you put in subframe connectors of a roll cage you will often improve your e.t. because it stiffens up the chassis. Dad's `Cuda had a 383 with a Sox & Martin cam in it and when it was gutted to begin its restoration there were severa; stress fractures in it. The most notable was a 3"-4" crack right under the rear seat. This would be a problem with the new Challenger and if your gonna full out race one I'd invest in a good set of frame connectors.
