Had antifreeze flushed and all new hoses, it'll be another 5 years before antifreeze needs another flush which would have made the hoses 11 years old, not worth risking.

Did you do the heater hose relocation or have a later model that had it factory done?

2013 has the hoses routed along the inner fender, seen that relocation kit though, definitely would have done it on an earlier model.

I did the JRE heater hose relocation kit on mine when I swapped the LS3 in last month. Gained a lot of space and it looks much better. Very high quality piece with partial hardlines. Definitely worth it.

I did the hard line ones. Fantastic now. I notice a huge difference in how the car feels when hot, and my heat stays hot now.

Installed a strut brace from a salvaged 2014 vert. A little Nevr-dull and it looks like a million bucks.

Also replaced a hydraulic trunk strut. PITA to slightly compress and was chasing lock rings more than once. Good idea to lay a towel down in there first otherwise they slide into a black hole somewhere.

Took the 13 year old granddaughter out and let her do some launches yesterday. It was a good day.

Interesting how the girls behind the steering wheel of Camaro are always so laughing :-)

Well I drove my car today after I changed out the fluid in my M6 to the Royal Purple Synchromax on Saturday night. Man this stuff really is great. I highly recommend it.

Today!

The Camaro getting a complete suspension overhaul this time to handle the power without breaking everything in the rear end. Manual transmissions cars are notorious for being hard on driveline parts with big power and drag radials.

:Lakewood Front drag Struts
:Removal of the front swaybar
:GForce Driveshaft and Axles
Driveshaft Safety loop:
:BMR Chassis Brace
:BMR Cradle Bushings
:BMR Trailing Arms
:BMR Toe Rods
:Eaton TruTrac Carrier
:LPW Rear Diff Cover
:GM 'Performance 3:91 gears
:Hendrix Offset Bushings
