I see folk spending a lot of money on things that dont improve the performance on the car just becuase it should improve it, does not allways mean it will. yes with a day at the track and a stop watch you could well get better results from the wish bone front end but it will take somone who really knows how to drive and somone who knows how to set a car up to get the best results form it. The stock beam front end is very good and good results can be had with very little mods done to it.
Unless your in a unlimted race class and you are running at the front i think the money would be better spent on wheels and tyres, even with perfect suspension unless you have the bits that actuly make contact with the ground being the best that they can be you wont get results.
How much differant is the wieght of the wishbone front end? we allready have a light front end with the heavy beam, losing more wieght from the front i can see a lot more understear and the change in front rear balance would be hard to adjust for.

If you're going to put limits on cost, who drives and who sets it up I'm not playing any more!
What you say is very true but I would love to have a go at building a space frame bug with double wishbones front and rear with monoshock front and horizontal coilovers on the rear with bell cranks.................(its a lottery project)
