No, Cincy Speed is going to install them and retune the car. With the headers and RotoFab, it will need retuned. We are thinking over 400 at the wheels HP and TQ. I am hopeful myself. Only wild card is the OEM exhaust. Similar setups with aftermarket cat backs make well into the 410s and 420s so I should be there too... We shall see. I hope to have those on by the 23rd. I may also play around with my sways when they come in, prior to the 23rd, incase we need to install some others that day, i will know what I am doing... LOL!

For those of you that have NOT changed your fluid in the manual transmission or the rear end, I would highly recommend it. You can ask Jason about the transmission. Big difference and also if you would see what came out of the rear ends. YECK. I will bring my hammer for any work that requires fine tunning. It takes 4 qts of Mobil 1 automatic trans fluid. This is the fluid
Mobil 1 Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) You can get it at AutoZone, Pep Boys. It takes 1.2 qts of gear lube. Mobil 1 Synthetic Gear Lube LS 75W-90 Randy |

Jason, the 23rd is good for me.
I am toying with lowering or headers. If I go with lowering, any suggestions on which manufacturer/kit I should pick?

If you want headers, Drew has installed headers so as long as he comes, he can help you there but you will likely need a tune soon after so keep that in mind. He says they take about 2-3 hours. We can whip out a lot of stuff. Most people are very eager to get dirty! Also, I can be there as early as needed. |

I haven't research springs so I don't know if there is any reason to be concerned about the Eibach springs for Camaros. Last edited by heinzd01; 04-25-2010 at 09:31 PM. |

No I haven't and he mentioned "older" cars... how old? I mean, are we talking the mid 90s civics and integras from the Fast and the Furious days? After time all springs will wear out. I wouldn't worry about it.

I've got the MGW shifter install videos on my laptop and I've summarized the steps below. I estimated 30 to 60 minutes per install. I'll have the tools ready to go.
MGW Shifter Install Summary Tools Rachet 3/8" or 1/2" Uninstall Remove shift knob (twist/pull up) Install Transfer shifter body bushings from old shifter body to MGW shifter arms (use soap) |
