You're modding too fast, I can't keep up, Derek! Haha

Busy weekend ahead! Phastek Air scoop and headlights, BMR trailing arms and bushings, and 80w LED's

Hey did you ever install the SS master cylinder and if so any big difference?

My brakes feel great. What exactly did it change for you? Easy enough to bleed?

If it's any help, flushing and bleeding are made easier with these two items.

Genesis bleeder bottle and a small suction syringe with hose. The bottle has a magnet so you can stick it anywhere while you pump the brakes.

(Don't mind the shameless inclusion of my 70 charger resto)

Very easy to bleed. Made the pedal stiffer, since it has a larger piston to move all 4 pistons in each caliper instead of just the 1 or 2 in each caliper.

Definitely worth the $80 or so, and hour install.

Gotcha. Ok I'll look into that as well. Thank you

The new MC comes with it. I bought an AC delco/GM

Got my scoop and headlights in today....pretty easy. Did not get the Halo's wired in though, as I ended up having some trouble with the headlight connector. Ended up pushing one of the pins out of the headlight connector because they were sooooo tight. Apparently pretty common with these headlights. Didnt know until i got everything put back together, so I get to pull it all back apart Wednesday, and do the trailing arms then too.

But, Pics!

So, got one drivers side light working, but the passenger side has to come out.

As for the scoop-very very easy install. And i feel like its a little more responsive around town, but definitely noticeable at high speed/rate of acceleration. Seems to pull a little harder

Looking smooth

Hell yeah man, more progress!

derek1387 · 03-08-2016, 07:48 AM

Done!

Think i need to get away from teh LED headlights...at least these ones. They work great, but i think the bases are too thick to fit in the socket properly, causing poor cut off.
