'68 Camaro stock subframe mods.........

[AWDPete]

Hello all,

I just found this site about a week ago and have been looking for some info on modding the stock subframe on my '68 Camaro. Money is a big issue so I need to be frugal. It's not so much about appearance for me, it must work! I will be using the car for primarily autoX and big track venues, I want to be competitive! I gathered bits and pieces from different threads, and this is the conclusion I have arrived at - let me know if I am close?

Tall spindles or tall ball joints need to be used to correct geometry, are tall ball joints reliable?

Bumpsteer is an issue, can this be fixed with a power R&P?

I see coilover conversion kits, what will these do that a good shock and stock style spring can't do other then easily adjust ride height?

It looks like one of the bigger advantages of an aftermarket sub is the ability to run a wider wheel/more rubber. It's also probably stiffer and has better geometry.

Can I mod my stock sub geometry to be competitive with the aftermarket subs?

I've got tools and time, but not much money.
