      3-link pics

      Sorry for the lighting. I didn't have much time to take the pics and get the car in a good position for lighting.

      I think the 91 is crazy, but I love the cage/rear suspension. Are you doing like high-speed stuff or like open road racing. It would cool with like twin T70's I think (easier exhaust, symetrical engine bay, etc)

      This is RyanJ on LS1Tech as well. I asked about the 3 link over there.

      Twins cause twice the piping, twice the WG's, different incercooler, more weight.. We could argue the advantages and disadvantage all day long.

      Yes I plan on doing more open road race stuff than anything else. However, there are plans at some point to swap in a ladder bar set up off the existing front crossmember and a auto

      Nice fabrication! It ain't an easy nut to crack putting a solid upper control arm frame bracket right in the middle of the car and get it straight and level. I like the triangulation and vertical round tube. One comment: you should close that tube, otherwise I'd guess that it will act as a spring by opening and closing slightly.

      What's your SVSA? How much anti-squat are you expecting to get out of the geometry?

      Awesome work!

      Axle center: 13 1/4"

      LCA length is 27"
      LCA rear hole height is 6" from ground
      LCA front hole height is 6 1/2" (Anticipation is 6" once the car has full weight)
      LCA Width is 29 3/4" (Paralel from Plan view)

      UCA is 1/2" in front of axle center
      UCA Lenght is 21"

      Rear susp. looks killer.....to bad you couldnt find a turbo big enough to make any power.
