I have a metric street stock that i bought recently. The frame is bent on the right side behind the spring. It's about 2" down. It seems that it wouldn't matter if it was fixed. there is 2X2 tubing behind the springs. Do I need to go to a frame shop or can i run it th way it is.

You should be able to run it, being behind the spring shouldnt affect the handling, no need for a frame shop if you have a torch and a porta power or even a floor jack, should be able to heat the areas and apply pressure upwards to straighten the rail

Do you scale your car? If it scales out the same and your wheel base wasnt effected then it should be fine. Those factory frame rails are very weak and bend easy.
