Congrats on the first change! And for not subjecting it to the potential risks of a 3rd party doing it.
I'm not understanding why the car needs to be so high (not that I really need to). Is it for obstacles to accessing the drain and filter on a GT350. I do my GT just on ramps. I know the GT350 is lower but not enough that ramps wouldn't work if my GT was as low. Sure higher would be more pleasant but just driving up ramps is so much faster and easier than jacking up the car. So I assume the extra height is needed because of the GT350 filter.
Regarding using those ramps as to catch the car if it falls: don't count on it. It is definitely not designed for impacts PLUS that particular model has many reviews on Amazon where it collapsed on first or after very few uses just driving up it with vehicles well below its rated limits. That made me look at it more closely and I feel what was done to let one ramp slip over the other to save space storing is clearly less strong as a design that does not have the internals gutted to allow the other ramp to fit inside. Then again, you don't really need to worry about the jack stands and the hydraulic jacks failing, so....
