Thank's.After I thought of the Idea I saw it on a 70 camaro.But I went ahead and put my twist on it.

This last week I instaled a set of Ride Tech's Single ajustable coil overs on the camaro.Man what a differants there is in shocks.These new ride tech shocks are night and day so much better than what I had.And they really worked well at RTTH event this last week.As soon as the lift is free I will get some photos of the shocks all mounted up,and have Tom post'em.The strange coil overs I had on the car made It drive with a little bounce.The ride techs ride so much smoother and have the same spring rates.2 weeks ago I drove the camaro 35 miles to a car show(bummer no autox) I noticed the back of the hood bounced a little.After I changed to ride techs no more hood bouncing just a nice smooth cadillac like ride.And at RTTH this week we made a few ajustments and bang we were in the Top 10 shoot out sat. afternoon.Ride Tech shock's and Kevin Miller wheeling the car is a good combo.

Car looks awesome, how is it on the highway? Does it fight you alot with the big fronts? I have 285's on all corners of my 1996 impala ss and it's not bad at all unless the road surface is really grooved bad.

The new Ride Tech coil overs really improved the drive & ride qualtiy over the strange coil overs.The car does not seem to wonder at all w/the 295's.I have not really driven the camaro w/the 315's yet.I am going to save those for another project.I have noticed a slight movement in the steering wheel because I just have a reg. Ujoint conected to the steering column.I need to get one w/ a rubber bushing in the column end of it.Thanks for the good word's.

This is a very nice car. I cant believe you are selling it. Someone would get a deal.

the only way to get the thread to extend that long is to post when you bleed your brakes and change your oil. make sure you take pictures..
