Help with 68 camaro

[gibby]

Hey guys just doing some research on the third gen steering upgrade, but I also was having some confusion about the outside steering arms. It seems there are three lengths and I can't seam to decide which is the best to use for a great handling car. Thanks in advance for all your advice

Presumably you want quick ratio if you're looking at the 3rd gen box, so go for the shortest arms.

Here some good info..
