Latest progress.. Ralph and I installed the KW V3's, Tarett drop links, and TRG sways. I think I'll have to get RS rear drop links, the tarret drop links don't seem to be long enough to be used with the KW V3's and TRG sways. Right now the biggest hold up is a missing oil cooler bracket.

I'm not sure what the tang on the shock body looks like but for JIC you need to use long tangs and RS curved drop links

here you can see the RS drop link secured to the incorrect short tang, the required long tang is below

Thanks Bill. Ended up having Ira at Tarett make me some custom bent adjustable rear drop links.. haven't installed them yet but they should do the trick. Here is the latest:

Almost done! Painted and installed a ducktail that I picked up in LA a few weeks ago from Peter at Rennspeed. I'm really liking the ducktail...The 3.8 RS tail just wasn't me.
