The last set I got a couple years ago were like $90. I just call them up and give them the size I need. :ohdang: I might consider this. I've got some valvetrain noise that I think is due to my valvesprings being overkill plus spaghetti PR's. A better set of PR's and springs more fit for my cam (max...

Skid plates on a street car just make me

The GTO came like that from the factory due to the aluminum pan's sump sitting in front of the crossmember.

Huckleberry

They are tapered, which helps with the strength. I've run them on three different engines now that all used factory heads without needing any additional clearancing. I do run dual springs on my GTO, but I have run PAC 1218s in the past. Most of the beehive fears stem from the Comp 918 nightmare fro...

Going off of this, you can save some loot by finding C6Z manifolds and midpipes. Your cam selection would need to keep those manifolds in mind. I would use Trend 3/8" pushrods. They fit and are my go-to for any LS build. Dual valve springs aren't necessary as long as the cam's lobe design doesn't r...

https://imgflip.com/s/meme/Grandma-Finds-The-Internet.jpg So, $65K for a 1LT Z51. Yeah, it is $11k more for a C8 2LT Z51 than my C7 2LT Z51 with the same options... but, cannot have the manual transmission. Maybe it will be like the 2014 SS where enough people will bitch about the car being automat...

Huckleberry

I was thinking the same thing, but I question the long term daily reliability and maintenance of highly modified cars like yours. I don't know enough about them, and they might be no worse than an unmodified LS3 car, but I pack the miles on mine so that's really the only question mark. I'd love to ...

So, $65K for a 1LT Z51.

Huckleberry

Ouch. Is that a result from road debris?

Huckleberry

I would go with the longest trailer possible while keeping within your towing capacity. It will help greatly with highway stability and maneuvering.

How much is he asking?
No idea IIRC he's been trying to sell it forever

So, probably too much and holding firm because he knows what he has.

Question for the collective. I bought the r32. I figured that a diet would let me fit into the sparco sprint seats. Well for one I’m fat and it would take a while to lose that weight which I’m working on. And two my shoulders are about five inches too wide. I’ll never fit properly. I need seat sugg...

Trying to swap seats with this kid. Or can but this supercharged mid engined beast and sell them to me.

So far, I really like it. It is much quieter than my truck and much more fuel efficient. Of course, I'm already needing to borrow a truck because the rear axle in the El Camino is on its way out the door and I'm looking to pick a replacement up. :lol: :fuckyeah: They're really great little cars.

Has anyone here actually purchased a car from Carmax?

I haven't. A friend of mine did and they fucked him hard.

Am I the only who is ok with how that looks ?

The blue's height looks fine to me. I have no desire to drive a vehicle that will scrape if a penny is laying on the ground.

So, I was listening to the smoking tire on the way into work this morning and Matt said something I really didn't think about.. All the C8's we saw at the launch were lowered. This is nothing new, they always do it, along with the online configurators and such... but, it does impact what the final ...

Too bad you can't buy a preproduction unit. I think there's a "lightly used" blue Z51 that would be available.

It’ll buff out I’m sure, Zaino fixes everything

I haven't heard anyone mention Zaino for a very long time.

If it happens, it happens. That would just mean I get all muh moniez back.
I should go buy a GTI too.

Indeed. VW had 1.9%, but I would have had to give up $2K in discounts to get the offer. After doing the math, there was only something like a grand difference between the 3.59% the dealer was quoting me versus the VW 1.9%. It didn't make sense. Even less so when I found out my credit union had actu...

$30.5K sticker discounted down to $25.9K. They gave me $8K for the truck. All said and done after taxes, tags, and trade, it was $19.5K financed at 2.75%.
