Default Unbalanced Torque Arm

http://www.unbalancedengineering.com/Camaro/TA/


^^^ does anyone have one. that is first question.

second question is that i have been reading over what madman said a few years back about the instant center is what gives you traction. not the pinion angle. so basicly the torque does help but having relocation brakets make a bigger help. well what about this set up? does anyone have this?

thanks

Let me see if I can dig up a similar thread from about 6 months to a year ago. I recall this topic coming up recently and my own conclusion drawn from it was that I'd probably just get a long adjustable arm.

Call Madman, tell him what your building and have him make you a torque arm.

Looks like someone trying to reinvent the wheel...what's the main goal for your particular application? I remember you asking me about Strange coil overs so are you looking for a street/strip style setup?
