I’ll echo the comment that the 4BW doesn’t need an LT1. I much prefer the low end grunt of the boosted motor over the na V8.

If the price was right, I’d buy a SM 4BW for a track car. No warranty so go ahead and tune it, plus you know it was broken in and maintained properly.

Thanks for posting those. Looks a lot like the the couple photos they released. I really like that color, but worry about how it will age. I’m reminded of my junior high math teacher who had a gold Fiero GT.

I started a separate thread on the SPL rear toe links, but they worked great. https://www.cadillacvnet.com/forums/threads/must-have-for-track-alignments.4133/

That’s what I found in my research as well. There is set of satin wheels for sale in the FS section. I’m debating getting another set of satin black or buying the tech bronze for my car.

I've confirmed that the SPL rear toe links for the Camaro work fine for the 5BW. Without them, you won't have enough toe adjustment to get the requisite camber. SPL part number is RTAEL CAM6 and you'll also want to get new inner toe link bolts since the factory ones are single use - they...

If you have an MVPI 2 or 3 it can log directly to the device.

I really like the 3R, so that looks like a great option. There are also a number of ways to get some solid discounts on them which makes them cheap to run (e.g. USAA). I'm not so much worried about the rake and aero, rather it's the issues that the taller fronts will throw off the wheel speed...

Thanks, but it’s worth noting that is the CCBs from 15+ years ago. We know the tech improved, but by how much?

I decided to dig in to a few options in both slicks and some bigger DOT legal tires.

John was trying several sizes, but I know he started with a 285/295 setup, I believe it was 285/30-18 and 295/30-18. He mentioned though that they had some rubbing and was experimenting with spacers as well as the different size combos. We talked about the fact that the ABS doesn't behave...

I thought I’d save myself some hassle and drive my C8 to VIR. Blew the motor up on a Sunday afternoon and had a hell of a time getting a rental car so I could drive the 5 hours home. Luckily someone there was nice enough to deal with the tow truck coming for my C8 so I could get an Uber to...

I’m trying run what is listed as the track alignment in the owners manual, but could only get -1.3 on the LR and -1.6 on the RR and still get the toe right. I use the CSM Performance by stands. They are expensive, if you take you’re time you can get the alignment truly perfect. I’m thinking...

I'd find a local race shop, ideally one that has experience setting up gen 6 Camaros. I've learned that the rear toe link is the same as the ZL1 so I've ordered the SPL toe link so I can get more rear camber in.

I'm in at MSRP as soon as they produce a functioning online configurator ;)

It *could* actuate the brakes. I don't know if the car has to go to sleep and then wake up on key approach. I don't know if there is some sort of drop in pressure in the hydraulics that would need to happen. The first time I swapped pads on my C8 I didn't know to disconnect the battery and...

That’s great. Make sure you disconnect the battery before you mess with the brakes.

Are the part numbers the same? I’d be shocked if the calipers were the same.

I initially did a road burnishing using the OM procedure.

Pads are larger too.
