Interesting article. Not being a GMHTP subscriber, I hadn't seen it before. Has it shown up elsewhere, such as in Camaro Performers (which I do get by subscription)?
Brett - do you think that different rack bushings would improve the feel of initial turn-in for "moderate to fast corners"? Those appear to be the only lower front end bushings left alone. Norm |

While GMHTP and Camaro Performers are sister publications, they don't typically reprint the same articles.
Thanks Brett, I bookmarked the article, handy to remember all the part names.

One of the first items recommended in the article is a subframe connector. I'm puzzled that I haven't seen much mention of parts like that in other threads. Have I just missed that or do most people not bother with subframe connector parts?
