No not this month. Last time I was at C&C (Jan), it was more of a late model car fest, with mustangs/jeeps/blinged out Chrysler 300s/Scions. There were only a few muscle cars there.

I was surprise too. The headers did not tuck up as tight as Holley's new set up, but it works. Was told by Dynatech that they used Ridetech's old Velocity camaro as a mock up, and they flipped the motor mounts.

Yea not sure I'm making this one either. C&C has quite a few classics usually, just mostly high end cars parking inside Vintage Park now. Need to get a big group to get there early and secure some spots for the old cars! Like to see them making more of a presence.

When does Nifty Fifties start back up? I need to hit that up again. Been a while.

I'm not sure when that starts back up. I know they moved from the old location at Kroger's, but I don't know where the new location is.

Drove the car around the block yesterday afternoon. Pretty stoked that my exhaust cleared the driveway, but now the belt is squealing like a pig.

Also fixed the parking brake on my LS1 rear brake. So I have working parking brake now.

Nifty Fiftees starts back up this Saturday, March 1st. The first show of the season is normally a good turn out as well. Gonna try and head out there myself if my plans workout

Where's the new location for Nifty Fifties, or are they still at the old location in Kroger's parking lot?

The headers fit a lot better that way.

Yep, apparently it was designed with the motor mounts upside down. Greg @ Dynatech said they will update the installation instructions.

I purchased an SC&C Street Comp Stage 1 plus from Marcus and full set of Ridetech HQ shocks back in thanksgiving of last year, but now finally had time to put them all together.

SPC upper and lower control arms



One side installed (missing the shocks)



Now just have to do an alignment.

Got a Lat-g decal from Jody.
