Not Ranked
This is same method the BRE Datsun team did to the spindle arms on the Datsun 510's when they were being prepared for under 2 liter Trans Am back in '69 or '70.
The entire length if the arm was heated and bent while still applying heat, then zyglowed for potential stress risers afterwards.
Rob.Smith's recomendation of relocating the steering rack is a better idea given todays undestanding and technology. The above solution is pretty much the standard for Club racing and Auto X preparation given the general bugets available. Be safe. Have the part checked for underlying cracks.
