Ok - I got a couple of hours Saturday and a couple today. If the spreadsheet was accurate I nailed the re-indexing. I have everything back together except reconnecting the axles and installing the catback. I was out of time and I just couldn't bring myself to drop it to the ground and see the results. I am quite confident though. I measured and remeasured. The "H" measuremet from the banana plate and the hub is almost exactly wha the spreadsheet calls for. Side to side is within a 1/4 inch.

Oh yeah. Dropped the car and it was dead on, first try! Only 1/4 inch difference from side to side. I really appreciate all the help. Skip and Joe went above and beyond answering questions. Thanks Guys

Sorry, way to late. Throw the torsion bars in the garbage can and go coilovers.

Glad to hear it all worked out. That last 1/4 inch can be adjusted via the spring plate and is best done when corner balancing.
