Default C4 IRS Camber Bar Question

Looking for someone who is a little more familiar with the C4 IRS.......

I'm putting the rear in a TVR (little british car) and am building a custom chassis. Due to the layout of the frame, there are two framerails that run alongside and under the diff. That gives me some options for mounting the camber bars.

In the factory setup, a bracket mounts off of the diff for the camber bar. The factory bar has an offset at each end since the mount isn't directly in line with the knuckle. I would like to use a straight camber bar with rod ends -- this would move the inboard mount forward of the factory mount. I think this would give me a better camber curve......and perhaps less bump steer as well?

In the pics in my gallery at http://orphancars.com/pictures , the suspension is set up at ride height, the angle on the half shaft is 2.4 degrees as measured on a couple of non modified C4's, and the camber bar is directly under and parallel to the half shaft.

All advice appreciated -- thanks in advance!
