Is this car to be street driven? I have heard that the bars be paralell for street use
Dave Morgan told me that paralell bars will not make it darty on uneven roads. The upper bar being on an angle (racing) will go shorter when hitting a bump(rear end going up into the car) due to the arc the bar travels
If you hit a bump on one side of the car, that side goes up while the other side goes down, making the rear end point in a different direction than you are steering
I have no idea how much of an effect this has in reality, since I have not got my car out yet
take care

I think if you look at old street rods the bars are paralell
