Thanks guys I appreciate it. It's been a drawn out process but hopefully this will be "done" in the next month or so.

Love it! Tell me how you ended up using ladder bars vs four link-- My aplogies if I missed it in the thread earlier. If you can keep the stance as you have it in mock up, it will be insane. Looking forward to seeing more on it as you move forward, especially the procharger setup.

Well, I had to be realistic with myself. Most of my "spirited" driving does not take place at autocross or road race tracks. I'm more of a straight line guy that really enjoys the pro-touring looks with the larger wheels and stance. It's kinda a frankenstein really. Drag style rear suspension, ATS front suspension, C6 brakes, LS motor with FI, and a 6 speed. It won't do anything really well lol. That being said I wouldn't change a thing. I love the look of pro touring cars but in the same breath I know I wouldn't use a DSE quadra link or similar style 4 link to it's intended use.

After all that to answer your question, a functional drag style 4 link would have all but eliminated my rear seat.

More likely than not it'll have to come up a bit but I agree.
