Ok if I flip flop later so be it. As of now this bastardized Ford looking Dodge colored POS Chevy is gonna experience some big changes and it's just sooner than I had anticipated. Sometimes you just can't control timing and some parts landed in my lap that I just could not pass up. Good thing the guy takes layaway. Thanks Larry if you're reading!

My current subframe with all the goodies is pretty much sold so I guess it's in motion now.

Here's the goods:

Jake's Rod Shop Apex C6 subframe
6 way Bilsteins front and rear (might upgrade to double adj)
1.25" splined sway bar
Jake's torque arm

Of course this triggers lots of other discussions and decisions to make. I think I'll end up with a Moser or Speedway Floater (using my existing Wilwood brakes front/rear) and a dry sump has entered back into the discussion again.

What is completely up in the air at this point is timeline. It is possible I miss Buttonwillow in September, but if that's the way it has to be for this car to get real serious and solid and safe, then so be it. I wanna get things solid and right with this car before I really start going fast. I haven't been 100% comfortable with my stock sub, 12 bolt with c clips, and a few other things.

I might not have a car at BW in Sept, but I will damn sure be there regardless.

Not in my possession yet but deposit paid and I'll pick it up in the next month or two. Ok lemme have it.
