It always seems to take longer when you are anticipating them to show up. It is like they know or something.

If they showed first I could at least be installing the new rad and fuel pumps. I can't do anything but change the pulley right now. Which I already did.

So I am guessing you made the pulley smaller? I did the same thing with my Cobalt, dropped the pulley size and had bigger injectors thrown on along with a tune from GM. Gained some good power out of it.

Caswell239 · 02-21-2013, 02:28 PM

yea dropped from a 4 -> 3.75. those cobalts are pretty quick up top, thats for sure.

mhoskins76 · 02-21-2013, 02:45 PM

It was what I called "sneaky fast". A lot of people didn't realize how fast that car was. Many times I surprised people in how quickly the car would pick up speed or how I could pass other vehicles with ease.

But I know my Camaro will be just the same...just this time with N/A V8 power.

And then you are adding the S/C, going to be a BEAST.

Sooo.......did the other parcels show up??

Or is Canada Post getting a beating today?

Caswell239 · 02-21-2013, 05:05 PM

No mail or parcels today... I'm pissed, I've wanted to run to the store 3/4 times but said no ill wait for parts. Now it's 4:05, they won't be here today. Like wtf, this town is ridiculous.

Canada Post has been very bad lately, but it seems to be in only certain places in town. If you in Eagle Ridge or around Timberlea service has been spotty at best. I live over in Thickwood by the arena and I have honestly never had an issue.

If I have the tracking number and it says it is supposed to be delivered on XX day, it always shows on that day.

Caswell239 · 02-21-2013, 05:45 PM

Hopefully it will show up for you! They are severely short of workers, just like pretty much everything else in the city. So unfortunately some of the mail gets delayed.

Well that sucks. Hopefully Canada Post will come through for you tomorrow.

mhoskins76 · 02-22-2013, 01:55 PM

So any good news from Canada Post today?

Caswell239 · 02-22-2013, 02:13 PM

No, chatted with mail lady, said packages are delivered by the package people. Mail people just do mail. Still no show. A cp van drove by about 3 minutes ago, I'm stalking the window haha.
