Isn't that the first gen Camaro the someone is putting an entire Ford drivetrain in? As for shocks, I am sure those rods are only in there for mock up purposes....

Yea, there is no way I could use a spohn tq arm on my car. They six-speed crossmember and mufflex y-pipe for long-tibe headers would be all in the way. I'll probably go with random tech. for a tq arm.
The pic I posted is not a mustang. It's a 67 Camaro.

Edelbock. Certainly better than stock, but nothing special.

where'd you get that edelbrock arm? and how much was it? does it hook up in the stock location on the tranny? because i have to run a custom tranny crossmember to clear the my exhuast.

The Edelbrock was from Summit, part # EDL5280 (black only. Mine was powder coated). The cost of $169.69. Fits the stock mounts.

JamesC how good is your edelbrock torque arm over stock? Did it help with traction? I just added the Hotchkis LCA's and Panhard rod, Spohn LCA relocation brackets on the way. I still spin both tires when I nail it at 20mph.

By virture of its tubular construction, the Edelbrock is obviously stronger than the stamped steel of the stock version. I can't really comment on traction since I'm not a slam-it-to-the-floor kinda guy.

That Edlebrock setup looks fairly stout. I run with the Random Tech arm, no pictures, yet.

question for JamesC
Sorry to get off the subject, but this question is for JamesC.
I was wanting to know what size your rear sway bar is in the picture. You can email at riced4@***.net if you like.
Thanks,
Chad
