I think we're in ageement

Bruce, that is what I was trying to say when I said the thing about drag cars being lifted as they come off the line. So, I guess you agree that the angle of the TA can have an anti-squat effect? I have personally observed this on the previous cars that I have built. The benefits were very noticeable and very positive not only for straight-line acceleration but also for overall handling.

The only problem I see is that when you raise the inner pivot, you will get positive camber. Raising both will require you to raise the whole torsion housing (a big job). Then it also raises the engine/transmission.

Still In the Planning Stage

The plan would be to raise both the same amount. I'm not using the torsion bars so it will be less complicated. I'll let ytou know how it goes, but don't hold your breath, I move pretty slow these days.
