What are you F-body guys who are primarily streetcars and some autoX using for torque arms? Right now I'm stock. I have been bent on the idea of a global west trac link after the SOTP feel in a friend's car. But now I'm thinking a simple full length adjustable like the UMI 2205 should do the job without feeling too noticeable and noisy. What's your opinion?

I have to say apart from relieving the stress off the gearbox tailsection which kept working loose (Muncie) and eliminating brake hop the Spohn one which cost me a fortune to import didnt help with the lap times. Its also mega heavy and meant I had to run a compromised single exhaust so if anything probably slowed me down. I may eventually do away with it and try to modifiy the gearbox cross member we fabricated to run the standard TA directly from that. Oh the other problem I got was the force on the gearbox with the standard arm kept ripping apart the gearbox mounting.
