    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...

    Tire Sizes Question

    11.5 a no lift shift? gasp. When i was rodding in the 70s a 12 was god and that took strategic science and, genius. That was the 1/4 and some twisted axles. Do these things leap frog? OEM stock?

    Fuse Panel Access

    ps. I wore nitrile gloves. I even cleaned my funnel with 99% ISO - did you?. Did you you want to go further down the rabbit hole? Sure I fucked up a couple times which made me think about the towel.

    5BW. 2024. Yeah the splash avoidance is real. To be sure, I'm surgical with this stuff. I did spill though that really pissed me off. I wiped the darn drips but this is the game?

    Cadillac F1 entry

    I'm not enthused at all either. The playback question. I haven't read an answer on that yet. I expect nothing but full-blown mediocrity from Crapple on this. My credit card gives me free Apple TV so I'll try to watch. But I've trialed Apple TV and outright rejected it three(?) times. I am not...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    WOW. Epic photo! (i see that asshat that ran a red - asshat) Speaking of colors. FLYARMY...what was the good lookin-ist blacking out there? ps. The president of V-Club called me back today and left a message from Texas. I'm trying to wiggle-in to the 23rd Spring Mountain as a 2nd owner. I will...

    Fuse Panel Access

    I do want the service manuals! I'd like to buy a printed manual set if there's such a thing and its not $1000. I heard about the digital version. Was probably the easiest oil change ever. The filter is easy to get to! using a fluted filter wrench, The only hassle was the valve cover oil fill...

    My probem is good old fashioned bullheadedness. I should take my car in for, say, an oil change. nope. I'll jack, crawl under, soil some clothes and wrassle it my way, for 3 hours. I shoud take my car in to have it professionally detailed. nope. 10-15 hours plus. with a toothbrush. Inner voice...

    CT5-V 6 speed and rear diff. fluid recommendations brand etc.

    I really want to put some slick stuff in the TR-6060. Mine is nowhere close to broken in but the shift linkage feels cranky - it's stiff and not that great at the monent. I don't like the "gate"of it right off the bat either- its off to me or my memory. I'll get used to it but if there's one...

    CT5-V 6 speed and rear diff. fluid recommendations brand etc.

    hmm, glad you mentoned it - I though I bought R but did't, just plain old Supercar 0W-40 dexos case code 126870. I can't believe the missing R got past me, I meant to get the R. Actually, the dealer did say it was the same. It was mentioned here before the difference, if any. I'm def using the...
