Anybody use structural foam?
here is the link: http://www.foamseal.com/auto_aftermarket.htm. SCC used this in their project 300zx a few years ago with good results. it is used by some OEM, infiniti Q45 for example, and the foamseal kit is what is used by body shops to repair it. looks like a relatively cheap way to stiffen the chasis without adding weight or being instrusive like a roll cage. anybody ever use it?

Sounds interesting. Looks like a nice way, maybe even cheaper way, to stiffen the chassis somewhat. But can never replace metal's integrity, especially if you are talking about a roll cage which would help alot in a rollover accident, etc. If you get it down, please posts some reivews.
I actually like the idea of sound deadening with the foam. If it doesn't add too much weight, compared to adding dynamat.. this might be the best way to go.
