a arm anti-roll

I guess how much the roll centre height has changed will affect what the requirements are..

You've got me into a serious project with your previous suggestion of using 996 rear suspension, I'm now planning a new chassis using 996 front AND rear suspension! I figured this would be easier than chopping up a stock one and ending up very compromised in between.

Hi Jason, well hopefully the engine will be sorted buy the end of may,
new ally case new barrels (detonation took care of two of the others )
massive intercooler with two fans ,oh and some 1.4 roller rockers .
Just bought the ecu for the engine management today, made buy these guys ,http://www.enginemanagementsystem.com/products.htm it was between this and a dta s60 but this thing will run low impeadence injectors and has a inbuilt map sensor upto 60psi and also switchable maps .We now have a biofuel ethonol garage at york so it will be 116 octane for me and a laughable amount of boost .This will also control the ignition so the ghia will be getting some nice mallory kit on it from my car .I now have a long custom made oil cooler which i am going to fit under the frame horns in line with the axles .This is the final incarnation of type 1 in my car , if this vvv expensive engine blows then it will be alternate power for me although i hardly think in a standard form .
I am going to mail rich about the rear of the 996 as i have looked at it and i don't believe it will be that difficult to physically position it in my car( famous last words ) as i have no back seats so loads of room underneath although i think attaching the suspension to a roll cage would be my prefered method , the real ball buster is working the spring rate out and trying to figure the ride height , i suspect trial and error will come into play here .Well suspension is over the winter so a bit of time yet .
enough waffling from me

p.s Helen says hello and there will be a present in the post for you???
