Has anyone done an in-depth analysis of the front roll center of the A body cars? Instant centers, roll center, C of G etc?

I've had a look through the archives, but can't seem to find anything.

I would do mine, but it's all in bits, and I need to take all the measurements with the car at rest with the engine in.

Most of the books skip torsion bar cars, but the swing arm theory should be the same.

Thoughts?
 
there are a million cheap to free software programs to do it, or you could make a spreadsheet from scratch. But I haven't seen dimensioned suspension drawings for these cars (or any production car, really) to be able to plug the geometry in.
