Tell Your Dad that's nonsense! The "frame" will easily handle the horses. However, You might want to consider some suspension upgrades and a good set of subframe connectors to help stiffen up the subframe. That way the power makes it to the ground without excessive wheelspin.

The 85 is a uni-body and has NO "frame", per say. The chassis would benefit from the above suggested mod, to reduce flex over time.
