Default 4 link design

Just interested in learning how to build a four link. Anyone got any good links, or people i should talk to? (Search = only back to 2006)

For a 67 Camaro and if all goes well maybe a 2000 Camaro.

Done some googling. One Question, Does a 4 link suspension need something to center the axle? or do the links accomplish this?

I've read and dont understand, why is an unequal length 4 link setup, not the best? I understand why having bottom bars shorter, is very bad. But say the top bar is 2/3 length what will this effect?
