Installed my Barton shifter today. But, I will still have the stealth bulbs to put in on mod day.

The shifter looks great.

I talked to Brandon at IPS Motorsports today. The headers have arrived and the exhaust has a tracking number. It will arrive on Monday. I will probably have them installed on Tuesday.

I am interested in feeling the difference between the Stock/Barton/Hurst shifters. Will be good to have something to compare against.

jrhaus76, GC-Camaro and lowbubba have Hurst shifters for their manual transmissions. It looks like we will be installing a Hurst shifter for Drew10.

I have a MGW shifter for my manual transmission. We may be installing MGW shifters for SilverIceMan, 1 RD JEWL and v1c1ous. We will probably have various shifter knobs on the MGW shifter. I have the race knob and I believe SilverIceMan will have a ball.

Darth_Emma has a Barton shifter for her automatic transmission.

WOW, we are going to have alot to do! What time are we starting?

As I said, I will probably install my sway ahead of time so I know what the heck I am doing.

Looks like we will also have the following:

Springs and sways on OldSchool's RY SS

Sways on hrpiii's CGM SS (new wheels by then???)

I have no idea what else we have to do to 1 RD JEWL's RJT SS??? I think he was talking springs, sways... etc!

You guys can use mine as a model. My spring/sway bars/end links were put in about a month ago. I'm loving it. "I don't need no stinkin' brakes no more!"

WHOO HOO!! I CAN NOT wait to see your car again! Will you have the wheels by then?

I will likely have my headers on by then. As you know, I already have the RotoFab on.


I looked at my engine today... man it needs a cleaning... Anyone have any suggestions as to how? Normally I just hose it but there are so many electrical connections...

I have heard the trickiest part is getting the front one out... and subsequently back in. I will fight and cuss at mine so I get it out of my system, figure out the "better way" to do it, then I will know how to do hanks and kerwins!

I'm thinking about getting a pair of these to replace my fender emblems. What do you think?

I think I'd need a dremmel to remove the mounting pins.

NO NO NO NO NO! The car is "retro" but the 68/69 style badges on an 2010... NO!

Just my opinion!

Sometimes you're a little hard to read. Is that a "no" on the badging? You are just so subtle.

+1 on the no. I've seen the badge used to dress up the passenger side dash, but it just looks out of place on the exterior of a modern Camaro.
