Fays 2 Watts Link
Hi I am big fan of SC&C. I noticed they have a new product over there. http://www.scandc.com/wattslink.htm
The watts link which from my reading locates the rear.
A few questions. Would this work with a G link on my Gen 1 camaro? http://www.scandc.com/alston.htm
Is it nessisiary with a G link?
If so would it all but eliminate any chance of running tail pipes?
If I had a Ford tear in the car like the track 9 would it still bolt in?

thanks for any help

No need for it with a triangle 4 bar set up. The triangle upper links control the side to side movement.

Post from Mark at SCandC that is current. He touches on why watts are beneficial to tri. 4 link. Don’t know if it would work with that kit without modification. My impression is it would be tough to run rear pipes with a watts (especially with that kit I bet)

The G-Link has much better geometry and a lot less non linear binding (basically none in the usable range of motion) than a stock A or G body GM rear 4 link and the greasable delrin race pivots in all 8 locations will locate the rear axle much better than poly or rubber bushings so the watts isn`t necessary at all with the G-Link.
The Fays2 watts with Alstons billet parallel 4 link rear frame clip would be a natural though! Next back halfed car PT we do in the shop we`d like use that setup. Mark SC&C
