    You can get away without, you just have to be careful. Mark everything up properly and you will be fine. You can also make a cam lock bar for about $15 at Home Depot.

    I thought they were exactly the same. The cam-lock bar is adjustable IIRC. They are the same part number as well.

    btw saw a vr6 s364 run...it was a beast.
