Easy Stock LT1 Torque Arm QuestionLoadre 09-01-2005, 08:50 PM Does the stock torque arm have a slight curve to it. I noticed it when I took it off for a tranny rebuild and was wondering if it's naturally got a decent curve or if I've bent the flimsy thing. I'll get a picture tomorrow. This is an A4 car btw.
