I have QA1 A arms to install, which way would be better way to install for a daily driver?
68 Camaro

QA1 upper control arms have eccentric cross-shafts.
A. This side of the cross-shaft with the shallow cutout will allow for a factory alignment.
B. This side of the cross-shaft with the deep cutout will allow for additional negative camber.

Option B.

From QA1's site "All of the upper arms feature an offset cross shaft letting you quickly and easily adjust camber.

All of these arms are designed to add 3-4 degrees of caster and 0.5 to 1 degree of negative camber when used together. When used independently they will add approximately half of the preceding numbers."

If I were to go with option B would the deep cut out face the engine or the tire? Thank you. Good timing--installing this weekend. 157796

Good question!
I assumed it would go toward the tire.
Let's wait for more knowledgeable people to speak up.

Deep cutout faces the tire. Here are the instructions. http://www.qa1.net/tech/documents/GM%20UCA_REV_11-15-2016.pdf
