Ant,

I do notthinkanti-squatis a necessity. It appears that about "3177" or two more ;-) Cobra replicas have none and perform very well.

I wish there was a web-site with pictures of suspension used in sports cars.

Race cars rarely have anti-squat, because that only becomes effective with a lot of wheel travel.

I check a Superformance soon, but by looking at the picture of the rear suspension I think that they do not have anti-squat.

A typical XJ suspension does not have it, unless the differential is mounted in an angle anf the track rod allows for that movement.

Don't ask me how, I can only tell more onece mine is finished and I can check the camber and toe curve by moving the wheel (or better the chassis) through their travel.

Milliken's book is like I thought by what you tell. More for the Chassis Engineer at GM or FORD who is building a completely new car.
Good if one understands it, but easier to consult a field engineer for questions. Like KONI's.

Cheers,

Dom
