I don't recommend aluminum shock towers with aluminum bulkheads either. Aluminum bulkheads are nice, however when you add an aluminum tower, there is no longer a flex point if the truck lands on the lid. I was running flm hybrids and flm shock towers, and had a pretty bad upside down landing. It snapped the chassis off where the bulkhead bolts on.
So order a aluminum chassis when you order those flm towers
