    I pulled the ball joint cause the strut bolt was frozen on both sides on the bottom and I was stripping it. I didn't want to have to cut it off or have to drag out the torch to heat it up to get it lose. Normally I woulda just unbolted it from the top of the car but my other brother was...

    Can somebody please explain the lowering process to me?

    I run with the FRPP C springs and needed very little correction of my alignment it lowered my front just over a 1 1/4'' and the rear 1 5/8 I didn't need CC plates but I do need new shocks so I'd recommend saving money till you can do all of them at once just to save the hassel of having to do it...

    Springs are a cake install the front can be a bit hard when trying to seperate the ball joint from the spindle but the rears took less than 10 mins. Of course it's easy when you have access to a lift and impact tools :banana: I've done springs before without that stuff and it's just as...

    I'm Slow...

    I don't remember it being very humid outside so I don't think it was that bad to cause your car to run slower. What were your 60'' foot times. Bring the slips up this thursday might be a indication of what's going on. 66 usually has good track prep but I've never gotten a good run at their...

    T45 vs Tremec 3650

    T-45 is not that bad I've actually heard of them lasting longer than some of the 3650's and vice versa. If your already on your 3rd tranny I'd forgo the T-45 or 3650 and go with a TKO will cost a little more but you won't be swapping it out in the nearby future
