Here are some pics and thoughts about the new suspension...

This the most advanced optimization of suspension geometry on the market. Trust us when we say hours and hours of time went into this suspension design. Yes it'll ride comfortably. Yes it rides LOW. Yes it is high clearance to easily swallow 315s up front. And yes, with Ron Sutton on board as part of the design team, this suspension kicks! Quoting Ron-

 The ONLY chassis to come exclusively with the Next-Gen ATS spindle
 Industry first: Optimum roll center with any suspension strategy
 Roll Center achieves optimum location for low, mid & high travel
 Increased shock length providing more suspension travel
 Excellent for street, autocross & track days
 Virtually ZERO bump steer - .005” in standard full travel
 Bump steer kit available for competitors desiring additional bump out
 Up to 30 deg of steering angle
 Rack location & ATS Next-Gen spindle provide optimum Ackerman
 3-piece Chromoly tubular splined sway bar available in various rates
 It just doesn’t get ANY BETTER than this

and speaking about the new "Next Gen" ATS spindle...

 We took the best forged aluminum spindle & made it better
 Better Geometry than ANY Corvette (or Corvette copy) spindle
 Reduced KPI/SAI angle
 Requires less caster to achieves optimum tire contact patch
 Significantly less scrub radius
 Maintains optimum tire grip with less backspaced wheels
 Still forged from 7075 aluminum
 Uses all brakes built for Corvette C6 spindles
 Comes standard with stronger ZR1 hubs & bearings
 Next-Gen steering arm provides increased Ackerman steering
 Achieves optimum tire slip-angles, increasing front tire grip
 Excellent for Autocross, Road Course & Street




Yeah baby!

Note:
-Torque arm suspension, the same style set up in our booty kicking Camaro and Nova suspension systems
-Articulink rotating trailing arms with greasable Delrin bushings
-Several coilover options from mild street to full race sweet
-Splined sway bar with several available spring rates
-Available 9" Ford with all bracketry pre-welded on
-Rear frame clearanced for 345s and then some for the pro street guys
-C notch built in for air bag dropping the rockers on the ground

Designed for small block, big block, and LS applications. Ours is a 525 hp GM crate LS3 backed by a smooth running Hughes 4L80E.

This is static ride height. Wouldn't take much by way of bags to drop the rockers on the ground for those that dig that. "How low can you go..." Note that the frame rails and custom formed headers and exhaust are tucked up above the stock rockers so there's no issues with ground clearance through full suspension travel. For those that live in speed bump utopia, there's is plenty of travel to raise it up as needed via the coilovers. The additional parts such as headers will be available for purchase as well.
