    Jacking up your Blackwing

    Okay, Camaro chassis tow plates at ZL1Addons will not fit Blackwing. Ryan said so, helped me with my cart/order. They also invite any Blackwing owner in San Diego to swing by so they can make more parts for the car. The cerakote 1/4-20 bolts are wicker bill only at this point. I was playing...

    How many miles on the odometer at pickup?

    125 miles used at pickup, 1 year old '24. Unicorn. Summer tires only and going into storage Tuesday. Or tell me the Winter only OEM 275/305 sized tires they don't make so I can keep it on the road on snow/wet wet wet sleet rut rivers and rain hydroplaning suprise confidence. I'm at 500 miles on...

    4 BW discounts?

    @DCV Traded for a Porsche. Bold, succinct. Maybe, even, a clever move. How dat and, what trim? Did you post about a 4S? Or, what did you spec? I've been oogling Caymans for 3 years but jumped at the used CT5 3-pedals 6speed V-8 Cadillac sleeper as soon as I saw it. No delay. Epic. But the...

    Jacking up your Blackwing

    ZL1 sent a cart reminder!, good! Recovered my stuff. but it got wiped out again. Argh. Tomorrow for sure. Shipping now up to $25 clams. Ugh, but legit.

    Draggy vs In Car Performance Recorder

    Not going to put green in mine for the reasons @shbox states. LMP confirmed on their dyno the OEM 4" intake is plenty good enough even though they offer their 5". ps. I still need/want a catch can. Maybe the LMP, I dunno.

    Draggy vs In Car Performance Recorder

    pulling a 12.9 in Blizzaks. Okay. Good to know! Ah, looks like you have an extra radiator? I want that but remove the CT5 front end to install, ugh. Ah, I see the CT4 has dual air filters- nice. Only 1ea in the 6.2L. Less is more? ps I'm shopping for an CT4 or a Cayman or a Z or a this-or-that...

    CT5-V OTA Update 654.10 installed yesterday and 2 power cycles I no longer have any connectivity

    Thankfully, no update available yesterday on '24 CT5-V Blackwing. I think I updated it, maybe, once, since July. The darn USB audio stick fires up playing every.single.time - cannot stop the thing from playing if its plugged in. Total B.S. Though. I think I read there's a new GM head of...

    Jacking up your Blackwing

    I think these might work on the Blackwing. If I'm remebering conversation with Ryan, not sure but I'll go for it. He was cool with me trying Camaro stuff on the Blackwing or return if non-fit. https://zl1addons.com/collections/strap-points/products/camaro-tie-downs doggonit I just lost my...

    Jacking up your Blackwing

    Exactly how I'm set up as well! but with 2 piece 10" ramps and, 4" trailer loading ramps - I'll haul the 4" in the trunk I guess, and try them for the rear diff. I need a second Daytona jack but I'm in the ZL1 cart now with all kinds of stuff for jacking. And the towing hook (don't really need...

    CT5-V Oil Change Report/Health

    I was going to skip my 1st oil change Blackstone test (at 500mi) and save it for oil change #2. But, you make a good point about having literal history. I think, now, I'll send in the oil I saved from change #1, will pour it out from the oil filter I saved. Might have to try that Amsoil test -...

    Plastic parts in my brand new Blackwing

    Keep the bag of parts for later and forget about them for now. Not for street, for race track laps at high heat braking. You have to remove the wheel, remove the disk, put those on for better cooling. Good luck with that. I googled it. I have the same parts and there's a sheet in the bag. It's...
