i know you said plans... but for the cost of subframes available, and their quality, it really doesnt pay to make them yourself. i got a set of tubular 3 point black powdercoated UMI pieces for like 279 shipped.

plus, you could just fabricate them from making measurements, BUT most cars are already a little twisted, so the measurements arent going to be 100% accurate for a standard f-body. i know when i install mine this week, im going to see exactly how off my car currently is.
