  1. @clarkspeed Thanks for the incredibly comprehensive response Clark!! 1) 100%. Have GC coilovers at each corner w/ GC bolt-in camber plates (to maintain EP spec). Will adjust ride height after the exhaust is in. 2 & 3) You have given me a lot to think about here. Car came with 3/4"" spacers, so I'll have to measure and possible buy more or taller spacers once I have the ride height set. Greg runs 3 1" spacers stacked, and has one machined to make-up for the effect on camber/angle of the LCA mounting surface. 4) 10-4! I am allowed 2" extra track total (1" on each side). I will achieve this by: a) modifying stock LCA w/ heim rod-end w/part list recommended by John. b) Futofab TC (on order) c) either Apex s130 front "low profile" tie rod kit, or fabricate my own with parts from McMaster. All three parts will work together to achieve the +2" plus track I need. 5) I am running #350 springs in the front. Il be able to add the negative camber w/ the camber plate, and the addition of track. I am targeting -2 degrees, but might go less as you suggested for the heavy springs. 6) The Futofab TC's should solve this concern, but Il look at it more clearly when they are in-hand. I need to become more familair with the geometry. 7 & 8 ) agreed! Will be looking into heim rod ends for sure, regardless of something I fab or purchase. It is frustrating that the A/M suppliers done explicitly state the weight. Not sure why... I weigh every OEM suspension part I remove from the car so I can keep track of the net +-. 9) yeah I will use the stock knuckles for now With all of your help, I have a much much better grasp on the front suspension geometry and modifications. Il have to play around with the roll center a bit, but besides that I think I have it squared away! Thank you again for your help Clark, Ben, John!
