Yes, without question. It may be a bit of a different approach than the pony car versions we have out currently due to the frame on the A-body cars (there's an "inconvenient" crossmember that would get in the way of a suitable length upper link, we could make the link teeny-weeny, like 10" long or so, but that is a serious compromise in the performance of the overall package that is unnacceptable as far as we are concerned: size matters here, sorry). We have several product development projects going on simultaneously, this setup has not yet been started, but will very soon after the current run of product details are settled. The concept, and suspension geometry calculations, etc, are already complete. A-body cars are just way too cool for us not to give them some of our lovin'.

Hey Mark, have you guys looked into removing said inconvenient crossmember and triangulating the new forward link crossmember for added rigidity? Just a thought I had back in my "dreamer" days.
