Grinding down shock tower for more neg camber, anyone have pics or tips? Options

[nebreitling]

i'm doing better and better, but i know i can go faster.

at the AX on saturday, demick and i were shooting tire temps. just as i thought, my fronts were significantly hotter on the outside than the inside. i don't remember the exact numbers (though IIRC they ranged from 80-95 deg F), but the disparity was significant enough that i'd like to dial in more neg. camber.

i know that a few people grind down the shock tower in front -- before i go cutting, i'm just curious if anyone has any "after" photos of this mod...

although not as slick as bending here is my way

if you cut an oval shape out of the tower with the center shifted to the center of the car, then took the section cut out and swaped it side for side on the car and welded it back it the holes whould be un modified. the oval on the pic is a poor example of where you would have to cut but it should give you an idea. the red lines show how much you would gain by swaping side to side. if you cut it 1/2 inch torwards the center you would gain 1/2 inch of adjustment.

i hope you can see what i mean with the pic
