      Fab work looks nice. I agree the PHB really should be moved. If I were you I`d move it just behind the coilovers and fab mounts with multiple mounting holes or NASCAR style slot/serration mounts for vertical adjustment with possible heights between say 12"-15". It`ll mean a lot more bracketry but it`ll be worth it in tunability. Make the bar as long as humanly possible while you`re at it. The lower you move the PHB the more spring and swaybar rate you`ll need to balance the car. WIth the 4 link I`d set up the lower arms level at ride height to minimize roll steer and adj. antisquat with the uppers. It looks like you have a number of holes to work with on both the uppers and lowers so you should be fine. Get the whole car together,find (or rent) a place where you can seriously test and tune (savagely thrash?) the car and go from there. Honestly some of the finer points are probably going to be lost on this car. The horsepower will dominate the car. You won`t have traction or anything that remotely resembles it on 35 series street tires and oversteer will always be a toe twitch away so I`d concentrate on making it`s handling characteristics as benign as possible to let you focus on driving rather that agonizing over minute details on paper/computer. It should be quite a ride! Mark SC&C
