Suspension/Steering / Upper Control Arm interest?
Here is the dimensions of the lower control arms. This is from my Solidworks CAD file of what I currently run on my car. This control arm was designed from the original one off the car.

Engine Tech / New Coil Pack Ignition works
Maybe at the end of the semester I could put something together. In my senior year of Mechanical Engineering so I don't have to much free time during the semester.

Engine Tech / New Coil Pack Ignition works
Never been supercharged but it used to be a v6 automatic and then I put a 5.0 5 speed set up out of a 1991 mustang about 2004. I put the twin turbo set up on it about 2006. I was using the Anderson Ford Motorsport PMS for tuning but it was garbage. I installed the AEM in 2008 and It was much better for tuning but it never worked well with the py Ford TFI module so in fall 2010 I parked it and took out all the factory 5.0 engine wiring and started from scratch building my own wiring harness for the AEM and incorporating coil packs and a crank and cam sensor which never came as a factory option. Best thing I have ever done for the car! The AEM works perfect with a cam sensor and a 12 tooth crank trigger wheel and coil packs. The coil packs are just standard GM Coil packs and are inexpensive good coil packs that still use the factory style plug wires.

Suspension/Steering / Rear Control Arm Center to Center Lengths??
I run a spherical bearing similar to that on my rear end but I forgot where I bought it from. They work well though! No squeeking, binding or wheel hop ever. The handling is very predictable unlike other rubber and poly bushings.
