Got the pricing back. Here's what we are going to do.
Set of frame rails, six bolt holes per side, no lightening holes. Rails will be 14 gauge stainless steel.
All stainless steel bolts, nylock locking nuts and washers will be included.
$92.00+$15.00 UPS shipping to lower 48, for a total of $107.00 shipped!
Lead time is 4 weeks after order.
Time for firm commitments. I need to order 30 sets to get this price. I want to order in the next week or two. I'll start a new thread for reservations.

That is a great price. I have the v8roadster rail kit for my swap. They came with the trans mount kit and all. 4 bolts/side seems enough but I'm sure 6 might be a slight improvement.
Some way to remount the wiring loom that runs from the front of the car to the battery would be nice. You can see from this picture
that the v8roadsters covers the holes to the clips that hold the loom up. I drilled more holes and used zip ties but something built into the rails would be a bonus.

14 gauge is the same as theirs. IIRC, the cacluated weight from cjernigan was around 14 lbs for the ones with holes, plus 1.15 for no holes, so around 15 lbs. With packaging, etc added in, I rounded up. I'd rather estimate the shipping weight heavy and have it be lighter. I'm sure FM's new ones with lightening all over including the flange puts them at around 10. The laser cut lightening holes id more effiecient than punching some round holes. This was intended to be low cost and stronger at the sacrifice of a few pounds.

I don't care for 5lbs actually.
