I read an article on fordmuscle where they put upper/lower rear control arms and said it drastically improved their 60' times and it was much harder for them to break loose their tires but the price for what they did was like $600. I went to 50resto and MM has a "Rear Grip Kit" for $560 and it has more than the other kit minus the upper control arms, and I am figuring that since MM is the best company that this kit must be the one that will give me the best performance. What I am wondering is if this is true, and if so why don't they include the upper control arms in their package? Not neccessary? This is the kit I am talking about:

In the picture, the long black "Torque Arm?" doesn't come with it right?
Also, I figure while I am making this, will I notice a dramatic improvement with handling if I install a strut tower brace and k-member brace from MM aswell? I read that they are pretty much neccessary for Verts but nothing about Hatch's. I am spraying this with a 150shot soon and I just want to be able to fully utilize the power I am going to be putting down.
Thanks for your help!
