Welcome to the site Torpedo..
Yes, you can modify that LCA (that thing is beefy, especially for the tiny car you're working with), just be careful not to lose too much distance between the pivots (don't shorten it any more than you need to..
I had to do this mod for my Honda N600 build where space was a premium (build at
viewtopic.php?f=36&t=14452 ) .. in my case I had to shorten the LCA leg and flip it to the front of axle centerline to make it work (pics give an idea).. Never had an issue at all with the mod.. cut away Torpedo!
