No worries Dick. I realize I didn't properly separate those two thoughts nor describe the upper link correctly.
I have a GTD GT40 which was built with a simple bushed (vs Heim-jointed) suspension. A few years ago I converted the entire suspension to Heims – trying to more closely match the original GT40 design. The results were absolutely transformational. The GTD GT40 is now very predictable and pleasant to drive where before it was terrifying.
It's also interesting to note the strong similarity in suspension design between the GT40 and Mangusta.
