It moves... Needs exhaust, alignment, and a tune before its driveable again

Picked up a few things for the car...


My old toyos



Lk9 head and lsj cams

Aside from that, car still needs exhaust, alignment, and a retune.

Interesting... I seem to be missing those exact items from my parts stash.

Also, why are the tails not on the car yet?

That's the original subframe out of the car. Hasn't been repainted or powdercoated.

Just a few updates...

Traded my front Baers for a set of wilwoods





Got the brakes bled and the car back on the ground. Just waiting on some parts so I can get the new motor prepped and installed in the car


In the meantime, working on getting the spray paint off the vis hood so it can be recleared.

What is the smallest tire you can fit on the wilwoods?

I swear I seen someone using them under the stock LS-Sport wheels.

I miss my Cavalier, even if it made 100 hp on a cold day and had more suspension then it deserved.

pretty sure Fetter and Karo ran 15's over wilwoods... but they aren't using your run of the mill wheel.

i've seen lss and even z 16" wheels run with spacers.

I'm thinking about larger front brakes for road course and half mile events.

I can easily get some Baer's, but I know how heavy they are and I believe 17's are the smallest.

The wilwoods are definitely lighter than my Baers were... and you need at least 17's as you said. You also need to be mindful of wheel design as my old 18's wouldn't clear the Baer caliper due to the design of the spokes. (At least not without a spacer)

So is the supercharged hybrid done and smashing cones yet? Or is that a 2021 thing?





Re: strat 2014... resale value be damned

Tracking to be a 2021 thing at this point. Got a few odds and ends to tie up to get it inspected, then it needs to come back apart for a few more parts (fuel pump, injectors, water/meth) before it’s ready to tune.
