I don't mean to ignore the upgrades but the Mid mount accessories setup is so sweet!Here is the bullet. 6L LS, BTR stage 2 cam, BTR trunion upgrade, new gapped rings, bearings, head studs, ported 317's, Flowtech headers, Holley Mid Rise intake, 102mm Throttle Body, 98L/hr injectors, Holley mid mount accessories, G body oil pan.
I've been waiting for SpeedTech to come out w/a g-body version of their T/A set-up for the reasons mentioned. It get's worse the lower the car is as well & my stuff is low.Trying something really different here.
I didn't have confidence in the angled upper control arms. Don't feel like they do a good job at locating the axle housing side to side. I've always felt if you push these cars side to side. They move some. Fox Mustangs have the same thing going on here. We've all seen the Mustangs into crowds and heard of the G body shuffle.
My friends Camaro has none of that going on. Feels solid side to side so I installed a panhard bar like an F body to control side movement.
Part of the package is a torque arm. With these two additions we can eliminate the 2 upper control arms.
The axle mount is an off the shelf item but the other side is totally custom. I am also going to add a bar for the mount to reach the driver's side for more support.
The torque arm will be mounted to a custom transmission crossmember that will also support my 4L80E.

I read about this & have always wondered if anything could be done to help and/or if it might be model (weight distribution) biased.? I know of a few g-body guys that opted to swap to a 3-link but not sure if that layout would also suffer as well. If not, what drives it on one (T/A) but not the other (3-link)?Sweet! Only downside is the axle hop under braking if you're not careful. You'll never get that on the street though, it's more of a road course ism. It's hard to tell what the arm is bolted to, that isn't a Camaro axle is it?
