I need to raise the rear end on the Outlaw that I just put back on the road.
The six cylinder with the added weight of the oil sump has given it a bit of
a sag.

Are there other ways of bringing up the rear end besides adjusting the
t-bars? I know there is not a lot of room in there....are there coil over
direct replacement shocks with adjustable perches? Any other ideas?

Dunno shit about the 356, but if it's anything like a 911, then using coilovers in the rear would call for some reinforcements to the chassis.
The topmounts of the rear shocks are most likely NOT designed to carry the weight of the car

cheers,
