Dave,
 
FWIW  I flipped the lower arms on my 3 when rebuilding the front end.  It does give you an extra 1" lower.  I read about it in a book that I think is called "How to improve the Triumph TR3",  

Haven't tested it yet as I have no rear end, engine completely apart, body off chassis etc.

Hope it works!
