camber link height?

Not changing the angle of the top link, but changing the distance from the lower arm to the top link.

eg, to increase the link height - space the link 1mm higher both ends, so its at the same angle, just relatively higher to the chassis / lower arm.

Does this have an effect on setup? cornering / camber gain?

Hey,

if I understand you correctly, by moving the linkage higher but keeping same angle, car would roll more which means more traction and better cornering speed. Little less in corner steering

Thanks, perfect 8)

Ide guess then that lengthening the link on the inside of the chassis (using the L1 L2 mounts) also has a similar effect as it is moving the instant centre further away from the chassis / C.O.G

yes, better cornering speed and car is easier to drive because is more stable
