I bought my Jac-Fab bent V8 frame today now they are back in stock. This will ensure the 5.0. stay off my back.

I love my JacFab bracket. Easy off and easy on. Perfect for car shows and don't have to worry about drilling, riveting, etc.

The 5-0 (da police) won't bug you but I'm not sure sure about those 5.0 Ford groupies.

Haven't even gotten the HFC off the car and I already got a guy who is ready to buy it and willing to wait a couple of weeks. Getting $400 +shipping which will go towards my JRE tune. Score!

I also stopped by CVSi about doing my halo's and knight rider light. I have a ton of traveling to do so not 100% sure when I will take it. They have some power license plate brackets in stock and are ordering the door lights that illuminate the ground. They mentioned that other camaro goodies that they can do if anyone is interested.

Also, what is the best way to buff out minor scuff marks (clear coat only), I rubbed a box backing out of my sister's garage over the weekend.

Jason, love that plate!!! Dude,another bumper scuff! You're 2 fer 2 now. Sounds like this one is minor compared to the other Camaro. I have a Flex polisher if you need it.

Running new untested setup. New PB too by 0.31. After a few runs yesterday, dialed in ok today at + 0.03,0.04, 0.05 off my mark. Sprinkled occasionally. Some cream of the crop is here too-with cars dialed in from last year.
Got tagged on GM HTP Magazine on facebook-was nice. Cam 803.

1LE Arrives

Not sure how many of you guys visit the 1LE section of the forum, so I thought I'd post here as well. Picked up my 1LE yesterday after waiting way too long for it to show up. I thoroughly enjoyed the drive home yesterday from Des Moines. This Camaro was my first purchase from Karl Chevrolet and I have to say I was very impressed. Great delivery experience. If anyone is shopping for a 1LE, they have 2 others that showed up with mine.

Here's the link to my thread in the 1LE section:

http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=284225

Again, look forward to getting this car out there for some fun once the damn weather improves!

Nice ride! Glad you could get it home before all the snow hits.

Well I found out today that a 2013 Camaro is ever so slightly different than a 2011 Camaro. I attempted to install my sub, using the ******** stealth box from my 11, and it wouldn't fit. I know why it didn't fit and I kind of had a hunch that it wouldn't fit. ******** redesigned the box for the 12-13 Camaros. So that was a bust....for now. Disgruntled that I couldn't do that I decided I would tackle my ADM race scoop. I also had to do some tweeking on that too but I got it in. Between the CAI, VMax PTB, and the ADM scoop, I am very pleased with the jump in power I have gotten.

Turns out the scuff was mostly dirt. It washed off. I will give my car is nice rub down when it warms up a little. Even before they were so light that I couldn't get a good picture of them to post. I will take a "scuff" from a box in my sister's garage over a possibly side swipe while parked on the street.

Thanks, I really like them too. It only took 4 weeks to get them!

Always something and never easy. More power is good!

Next mod is either a Hydro-dipped Engine cover or some hi flow cats. I usually try to stay with performance upgrades as they usually pay themselves back. But those hydrodipped covers look so damn cool.
