So there have been a few different ways people on here have raised their rear mounts. Here is my way. I will be able to adjust my roll center by shimming the pickup points on the mount. I will also be able to adjust camber separate of the roll center. I have a few more braces to make before it is all done.

The rear suspension on the 914 has never been an issue. Go back and look at all the old IMSA racers. They left the rear pretty much alone with the exception of stiffiners. The key to roll center on the 914 is the front suspension. No different than 911's. 935 style aka ERP is the ticket.
