Double A-arm, strut, rack and pinion... all makes a difference... drag car or road race...I would advise reading up on the front end geometry.... I just built my chassis and front end... you can see it in my post(started my build for next years Drag Week)

That right there is THE most important thing.
ok i'll read up on the front end geometry. thanks for the suggestion. it will be a street strip car, so i would like the best handling possible, but still some straight line performance. i would want r and p and to get rid of the torsion bars, so i would like coil overs. thank you for the plans on how you fabricated your own frame. how did it turn out for you. does it drive nice or better then stock? are you happy with it? thanks for the input everybody.

Not sure what your real goal here is, few are really marketing their front ends as an upgrade for affordable high performance street use, setting up a decent handling TB system is a lot easier, but maybe not as sexy. I seriously doubt based on your level of questions asked that you can even design/match a RMS set-up. He has spent a lot of time and developement on his system. I suggest you upgrade stock system, or buy a ready to go front end, save your mistakes and learning curve for another direction.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
