Re: Just back from new camshaft tuning Question

I left the engine in the car, as I did not switch the stall converter. The biggest challenge in that method was re-installing the harmonic balancer. With an automatic transmission, the motor will rotate, I had to remove the starter, and use the flywheel to hold the motor in place, the books say tor...

Re: Disabling Stabilitrak

You guys are not reading the info put on first page from GM themselves. The stabilitrak is not just a Traction Control feature which can be turned off to allow burnouts etc which is what most people are looking or hoping for I gather reading this. The 2011 had it setup so it was not able to be turne...

Re: Brembo front calipers using 345mm PPV rotors

Are you trying to install Brembo calipers or are you just replacing stock parts? Your last line about will 9c1 pads work makes me think you are talking about the Brembo upgrade as the title of this thread suggests, but if so why would you order the stock PPV rotors?

Re: headlight adjustment

Thats definately not a stock bulb, the low beam is supposed to be a H11 Halogen bulb, if you want to go back to that type do yourself a favor and buy the H9 bulb instead, there is proven more white light from them and they are still $10 a bulb. I've had a set installed for 4 years zero problem. http...

Re: MY JBA exhaust setup, questions left, lessons

I don't know where you got the info about the H pipe not being a restriction... It clearly is as it has the smallest ID pipes in the stock system, I find it hard to understand how you have headers with what 2.5" cat pipes? getting necked down to that somehow and don't think its a restriction. P...

Re: Radiator fans are loud

Its not an actual recall, the letter I got years ago was to extend the warranty period of the fans to 6 years 100k miles which I have now passed.... I guess I can try talking to dealership before I buy anything since mine did not fail.

Re: OFFICIAL Master Production List - All Years

How did you determine your car was a GM fleet Demo car? My car has a weird origin at a OH dodge dealership that they would not explain to me and I don't see anything looking at Carfax for prior ownership other than they denote it was not a gov fleet vehicle? My 9C3 clearly had been upfitted with a c...
