You shouldn't have a hard time with the stance...just show Bill a pic of Red Devil w/ the Fikse's on it and tell him to make your car sit like Mark's....
Thanks Anthony, well that's what I tried to do. Unfortunately it's not as simple as that since the G-link doesn't have the clearance to go super low without running into this problem. Bill's going to test drive the car today and see how it is at the current height, if there's an issue he will raise it back up.

I can lower mine to around 24.5 but I'd rather have a little extra to play with on the race track. 24.75 gives me 2.5 inches of bump travel and the pinion is about a pinky away from the tunnel at full compression. I'd start at 2" of shock travel and keep an eye on the o rings.
Thanks for the measurments Todd, I'll check the numbers once I get it back which should be today.
