I ordered a $299 adj torque arm from stranoparts.com around 2 weeks ago.
They took my money and I haven't heard from them since.
I even sent an email inquiry as to the status of my order. No response to that either.
Seemed like a good deal at the time.

Here's another choice. I just put in a Random Tech T/A. Sorry no times, but the car seems to stick better, according to my butt-meter.

depends on your goals down the road, the tranny mount TQ arm is good to about 11.00's and higher in the 1/4, anything lower then that will take out the tailshaft, my buddy just did this to his turbo SS with stock TA on ET Streets at the track, so it will happen. Being that said, if your car is more of a 1/4 mile and plan to do more to it, then I would look into the Spogn tunnel mount TA, or the BMR Trak Pak, both take the mounting points of the TA off the tranny, to a crossmember that is either welded (BMR Trak Pak) to the underside of the car, or bolts (Spohn) to existing mounting holes under the car, both are adjustable. If your car is more a street car and will see the track a few times a month, I'd go with either the BMR adjustable TA, or the Spohn adjustable TA, or the Random Tech adjustable TA, all three are tranny mount and seem to be the best TA's out there for the price. Hope this helps out some.

I just wanted to point out that in another thread (one he started) Matt wrote this
"Addco Torque arm review (about a week on the car)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So last Monday, I installed an ADDCO adjustable Torque arm, $330/shipped from Stranoparts.com on my Transam.
The install went so-so. Basically, it took longer than I thought, but I got through it.
I got the driver's side muffler moved yesterday so it wasn't rubbing against the torque arm. So I did a little bit of spirited driving with the new torque arm installed. For testing purposes only.
It's a completely different riding car.
The *** end kicks out if you want it to, and stays put if you don't want it to. :love: In addition, this thing helps alot on the launches too. I rolled on the throttle pretty aggressively from a stop the other day, and after three quick chirps, she just hooked, **** and get.
My car hasn't hooked like this since I had Nittos on the stock converter. Yes, it makes that much difference. :faint: Easily, the best "bang for the buck" mod i've done since the Yank.
If you can't tell by now, I love it. My best 60' to date is mid 1.9's (I don't get to the track much). My SOTP meter tells me this single mod is worth at least a 10th avg (at least on my car, it is)"
Anyway.... Matt, I took your money, but it's not as though you didn't know where to find me.
And FWIW, e-mail is not as readily responded to as a good old personal phone call. I get a LOT of e-mails everyday, more than most could imagine. I'm glad you like your arm, and thank you for starting another thread saying just that, although it would have been nice if you would have come back and mentioned it instead of leaving the impression I ran off with you cash....
