Ah! I didn't know you guys posted here. Cool.

Do you plan to sell the kit for home install, or will this be an "XV install only" kind of thing?

We'll sell kits but there is a bit of fabrication and welding involved.  Detailed instructions and templates will be included.  Hardest part is the rear as it needs to be set up correctly. 

An experienced shop would have no problem doing it, but probably not something to learn on if you haven't done this type of work before.

We may change the design of the rear to make it a bit easier, but there will be some welding any way you slice it.  There were too many compromises otherwise.  We think we might be able to do it so that it can all be bolted on the car and then taken to be welded, but not totally clear yet if that is feasible.  Front can definitely be done that way.

If people don't have someone they know can do it, or can't do it themselves, we'll likely have a very small number of shops we can recommend and we can also do the install if need be.  I already know someone in Florida I'd have no issue sending people to.

Our website has sections for this information under the engineering section.

We're still collecting data and will update it some time in May.

I'm based in Westchester County, in New York. 

We will have a showroom open here in late June, in Irvington NY, right on the Hudson River.

Our cars are being built and all engineering done in Ontario, Canada.

Here's some more pics for you guys.

Some better pics of the rear setup - three link rear w/ panhard bar. 
Billet aluminum lower arms and panhard bar itself is aluminum.

Rest of the pics were form track testing the car w/ the Level II setup earlier this week.

I really like those wheels/tires on the car.

I have some more pics and info, but no time to update it in detail right now.

BTW - this week's Dream Car Garage on Speed starts the coverage of the Level II suspension.
It's aired twice this week already and will go Sat at 9:30 AM and Sun at 10PM and 3AM EST.

Enjoy....

I love the wheels on that car. Two tone color schemes are the best. Red and black with silver and argent trims here and there.

Paint the bumpers and grille, black chrome the chrome trims and rims, shave the handles, gills & turn signals and you've got my ideal car.

Mmmmmmm....

Wow! This looks great, the stance on that '71 is just killer. Will the front and rear kits be sold induvidualy or do you have to sign up for both? Can't wait to se the finished powdercoated product!  :clapping:

Ps! I've just finished helping my brother installing a complete Coilover and Rack & Pinion conversion kit from Total Control Products on his 69 Mustang, and I must say, the TCP pieces look great. They are a little pricy, but if your parts would hold the same quality, I think I would be very intressed if your prices where about the same. http://www.lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=4216
