There's a lot of choices on torque arms, but the most popular is the tunnel mount version. What are you doing with the car and what power does it make?

Tunnel mount for drag racing, transmission mount (actually beside-the-transmission-mount) for handling/auto-x/street.

Is the TH400 already in the car? If so, and if it's for drag racing, you won't need to mess with that to go tunnel mount.

Who built your 12-bolt? Is it in the car yet?

As said above, there are a lot of options out there. Being a 12-bolt, I would only suggest an adjustable torque arm since the non adjustable arms out there are preset to factory ride height and a 10-bolt.

If you see yourself going 10-seconds of quicker, then the shorter torque arm is going to be your best bet. However, there is a bit more noise introduced into the cabin, as a result.

That's not to say that the full-length torque arm isn't good for drag racing. We have plenty of 9-second and even a few 8-second customers running our TA001 and torque arm relocation. So really, you can't go wrong with a full-length arm if you have any hesitation on going with a shorter drag arm.
