What's Up !? Saw link to site from ISSF

Post by angelo »

Hey guys,
was snoopin' yesterday and saw this pic
Image


nice angle for a pic, really shows of the cars styling. I have a habit of buying cars based on style and not
reliability :lol:
My '96 SS is on Motor #3... :roll: Which i didn't get until 2001. If the SS ever dies this will likely be the model era
replacement for me.

Figured I'd start getting up to speed now... ;)

Saw the post of the guy who took pics of stock exhaust.....DAM that looks like a lot of extra unneeded weight...? :twisted:

Yes it is and I bought the spotlight off it so his looks less coppish than that picture.

PLEASE take good before & after measurements.

See these posts for how to take measurements:
viewtopic.php?f=18&t=84&p=1818#p1688" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
viewtopic.php?f=18&t=84&p=1818#p1818" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

(hint - measurements are not from a point on car to ground, rather point on car to bottom edge of wheel rim/lip, which will change based on wheel size)

What's important is to compare before & after numbers with the same wheels, should anyone lower their PPV and change wheels (diameter) at the same time.

I realize you've already changed your wheels. Good reason to measure before & after. This will tell us what the H&R springs do for a PPV, which is probably going to be different than the G8 numbers.
