    288 Miles and an engine failure

    Now I’m curious to know who the builder was? *update* I found it.

    Can confirm no blackwing label with base seats. I went with base seats in mine, too.

    288 Miles and an engine failure

    Supercharger bearing? So sorry for the failure. I’d be really upset!

    Manual trans owners--both 4 and 5

    I’ve driven a ton of high performance manual cars in my 25+ years of driving and my 5BW is one of the better feeling trannies I’ve experienced . Notchiness is perfect and shifts hit precisely almost every time at any shift speed. My only complaint is the clutch is a tad too light for my liking...

    CT5-V AFM for manual CT5-V Blackwing

    Thank god the manual doesn’t have AFM or any shift gear lockout for fuel economy. Would’ve ruined the driving experience.

    Carbon Fiber Front Lip Installation 5BW

    Looks like pop rivets go in there. Do you have a pic of the underside? I was just under there doing an oil change….

    Oil Changes

    Oil change was pretty simple. I’m a little surprised the filter and drain plug are uncovered and open. The BW does have a helluva front skid plate I’ve noticed.

    Oil Changes

    I have a set of custom built ramps that I use. Raceramps are way nicer though!

    Oil Changes

    I change every 6 months or 5k miles, whichever comes first. I’m about to do my break in oil change at 1500 miles. First time I’ll have my black wing up on stands….

    CT5-V Mobil 1 ESP (Supercar) on sale…

    I know we’re splitting hairs, but the PF64 is $7 at Walmart. 10qts & 3 filters for $91 after tax. But convenience is worth it, so Summit with the $10 off coupon would be a good one as well. I will look there first when I hit 5k miles for the next change.

    CT5-V Mobil 1 ESP (Supercar) on sale…

    So I went into my local “Zone” and bought 5qts and 1 oil filter for $42 after tax with their oil change bundle. Did this twice, so $84 for 10qts of Supercar plus 2 stp filters for the daily beater. This is a better deal than the online 20%. Will grab a Delco PF64 filter at Wally World now...

    Z06 Embargo lifted, any 2nd guessing?

    Z06 is unobtanium. I’m on a list for an Eray instead….

    Are you f'ing kidding me, GM? Red Seatbelts - ONE belt mismatched?!?!

    I always wondered why Cadillac didn’t go with a red closer to Edge Red for the belts? Doesn’t bother me, I love them but it woulda made sense to me to match the caliper color.

    CT5-V Mobil 1 ESP (Supercar) on sale…

    How’d you do that? I couldn’t find the deal bundle? Awesome price!!!

    CT5-V Mobil 1 ESP (Supercar) on sale…

    There are other options. The list has a number of acceptable brands on there. I just don’t remember seeing Rotella on there….

    CT5-V Mobil 1 ESP (Supercar) on sale…

    Oil type/brand/weight threads can go south in a heartbeat. With that said, GM recommends dexos2 certified oil with the factory fill being 0w40 Mobil 1 ESP for the LT4. I don’t think Rotella T is on the list. You can google search and check for verification.

    2023 BMW competition announced

    I really like it as well. The red is ugly, but I can see it looking great in a bright green or blue.

    CT5-V Mobil 1 ESP (Supercar) on sale…

    Heads up to the DIYers, Mobil 1 0w40 ESP (now called Supercar) is on sale at the “Zone” for 20% off with free shipping. Saves you about 13 bucks after taxes. Pick up a PF64 filter at Wally World for $7. **update** Grab 5qts and add an stp extended life filter for $38. Do this twice and it’s...

    That makes sense because the interior has tan seats. Red belts contrast with the entire interior setup.
