Any reason why the C-notch couldn't be extended a little further forward to gain a little more clearance. Is there enough room to accommodate vertical suspension movement without contact occurring?
At 55° angle between the links, the forces in them will be almost double what they'd be at 90° included and about 10% higher than at 60°.
You might want to find out what the angle between the uppers on the Fox Mustang was (I think it was somewhat less than 90°). They converged the other way, but the force multiplication would be by the same logic = 1 / tan(half the included angle)

'19 WRX, Turbo-H4/6M (the family sedan . . . seriously)
Gone but not forgotten dep't:
'01 Maxima 20AE 5M, '10 LGT 6M, '95 626, V6/5M; '79 Malibu, V8/4M-5M; '87 Maxima, V6/5M; '72 Pinto, I4/4M; '64 Dodge V8/3A
