Speedway G-comp suspension

Every suspension system has its pros and cons. Sure, when you get rid of the torsion bars you get more room for headers and things. And you can go rack and pinion. But you also load the chassis in a direction and location where it wasn't intended to carry suspension loads. And if you want to get really picky you probably raise the CG of the system because the coilovers are above the LCA's.

Don't get me wrong with some applications there are reasons to do the conversion. But just to have rack and pinion steering? That's a lot of work for a preference in steering feel. The worm gear boxes don't effect performance at all if they're in good repair. And now that you can get a borgeson power steering box, well I know what I would do.

There's no real improvement in handling capability, as shown by the performance of the Hotchkis cars and a few others. And in this case so far there'd be a decent amount of fabrication needed. You're chopping up a $4,500 suspension system. For that price you could get a Hemi Denny or alterkation set up and just bolt it in. Still a mustang II based system.
