not saying it can't or shouldn't be done - just after seeing a bunch of vette & truck guys keep the factory gearing or even go higher, i'd imagine that would be a nice trend to follow. just my 2¢
For me, I'd like to do gears but maybe keep the same ratio. I just want them for the strength over stock. But until I break them I'm not changing them.

Z... I want the gears now as that's more attainable than a supercharger. Just no way I can afford the SC as of now. Seems as though there is always something going on that takes up all the spare cash. Gears for me are only $210. Compare that to 4,5 or 5k.

tune...gears... I could be set again for a while.

oh, and the fact that we have a couple spare pumpkins lying around might help.

I had a GREAT time out at Pete's shop today. I walked in and it was like....parts HEAVEN.

We took out the old, installed the new, and took it for a spin to check it all out. PERFECT. The camber adjustment is simply awesome.

Now I can't wait for the next Retama track day. I'm going to turn these puppies full in for maximum camber and see what times I can put down.

Thanks again, Pete.

Have you seen Doug pack box's in his Camaro....

Lets see, carry one, add two, I figure he can get about 300,000 worth of inventory in his car pretty easily...

Why am I reminded of the Goonies, when that kid dumped out his marbles and filled the bag with jewels? Red jewels iirc....

Pete, did you find a SS tire inflator kit? Easily pack a couple grand worth of parts in the spare tire well....

Sweet!
All you need is a jack & allen wrench?
How much camber is that?
Is it infinite adjust or 3 or 4 settings? (I saw the extra threaded holes)
