Rear suspension UPGRADE well on its way. This is what will be the first GM version of the Cortex Torque Arm and Watts link. Oh, and it's made for a 108 inch wheelbase for those keeping track.

Old JRS torque arm = 30 lbs

New Cortex torque arm = 18 lbs








Once they finish up the watts link and fuel cell cage adjustments, they'll move on to LCA modification and header/exhaust fab.

Regular updates should be more the norm now as I will be going by there every 2-3 weeks. One of those perks of working with a local shop.

Woohoo updates!
Do you have any shots of the front mount and crossmember? And because I don't spend anytime under a camaro, are the other two links located in the stock spring location?

Filip is a hell of a nice guy and can drive ok too...won't be much longer now!

Right on Dave. Great to see this project moving forward again. I'm counting on you to wrap this up soon.
Then I envision you sucking me into multiple track days and my wife making me move into my car trailer.
