Front suspension installation issues Options

[rick 918-S]

I'm woking on Irv and Dan's car. (914coop)

The car is a slope nose. I have the front flares tacked in place. There is obviously tire clearance issues for two reasons. One the tires are huge. 235/60/15's which will eventually be changed. And two because theflares are designed to be installed much higher on a stock fender. I am going to reshape the wheel opens.

That's not the issue:

Is it possible to get the front torsion tubes installed cocked? I measured the sheetmetal and front flares for location. They measure out very close. The problem is the drivers side tire seems to be 1/4-1/2" farther forward that the passenger side tire which is causing a serious clearance issue with the leading edge of the tire.

I noticed the forward torsion mount is slotted. Can this have been installed cocked or does the rear cross tube (rack mount) set the suspension square in the car?

Couple issues to point out. The car has had a front end repair and a suspension change to a 911 front suspension.
