Hey guy, frame opinion...

if you use 2X3 square tubing you should only need .083 wall and I would use that to also tie back into the rockers. I would also go ahead and put some frame connectors in while I was doing all the rest. You will be thankful. You can get a look at what I am doing to my car right now. If you follow the link posted. I am posting a progress thread on the Painless Performance forum.
