Default characteristics of the following setup

i hope i'm going for the right options. Could i possibly get some feed back on the folowing please. Such as what to expect and what to watch out for. I'm booked into power station this week to have the following done on my U.K classic.

the car has already got lowered 35mm springs and solid rear drop links.

I'm having an adjustable rear 22mm ARB and ALK fitted and will be turning up with adjustable rear camber bolts if they are needed when i have a 4 wheel geometry alignment done. i know that personal experience and feel is needed to fully understand what one wants from handling upgrades but should i have front solid drops put on at the same time and should i have the ARB put to the hardest setting? Overall, how does this kind of set up sound to those who have experimented?

many thanks,
Andrew.

That combination will work well, and Curtis' alignment will get the very best from it.
The ALK is not adjustable, but i think you mean the rear anti roll bar is. It will have 3 holes in it. Try having Curtis use the middle hole.

I would fit solid front links at the same time.

Once you are used to it all the car will corner far better than it does today I assure you.

Curtis is an ace guy, please say 'Hello' to him from '911'.

Dead easy to swop the settings on the rear anti-roll bar.
Start on the middle setting and later swap to stiffest.....

and see if you like oversteer !
