    CamT's build thread

    There’s nothing to deplete or refresh. My guess is it’s similar to a muffler; internal chambers and baffles to slow down the flow of fuel vapor to give it a chance to nucleate on surfaces and condense, giving it a chance to drain back before making its way out the other side. Anyone got $200...

    CamT's build thread

    Probably last update for a bit, finally catching up with some of the work I've been doing. The first time I heard about the IIMuch VSR vent system was watching one of Eric's videos on Grifter, he called it the "fuel non-smelly thingy", watching that video sold me on getting one of these...

    I believe for our cars with the Brembo rotor and caliper setup the rotors are as follows: Front 14.0" / 32mm thick Rear 14.4" / 23mm thick https://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=464080 2010 SS OEM Brakes: • ABS • ventilated front and rear rotors • four piston fixed Brembo aluminum...

    Rumbles SLC Build

    1. Don't know. I'd recommend moving away from being locked into the 5 bolt pattern; the only reason to stay with the 5 bolt is if you want to use the RCR supplied quick release and/or steering wheel, neither of which are "great". Better, nicer quick releases and steering wheels can be found...

    Mesa - these wheel hangers are really popular for the Euro cars exactly for that reason. WTF designs lug bolts instead of lug nuts? So you've got to balance the wheel with one hand while trying to start a bolt with the other? Yeah, get you some of these for your Audi. I didn't pull the rotor...

    CamT's build thread

    I've R&R'd my wheels so many times now I couldn't possibly have kept track even if I'd tried. Seriously, this is one of those tools you never knew you needed - but as soon as you get it you ask why the hell you didn't get them sooner! They're back in stock, get'em while you can! Don't do what...

    Now that I've been able to get things sorted with the new house and area, I've been trying to re-commit to having at least 1 fun drive in the SLC each week. Lately, I've started to get paranoid about rolling around on the 4 year old Michelin Super Sports that I've had on the car since I...

    Kurt H (hoffkm) SL-C build thread

    I had a shop apply it for me. IIRC the cost was fairly minimal, I remember being surprised it was as low as it was. Sounds like nasty stuff!

    I cerakoted my exhaust - it’s stood up really well and is somewhat abrasion resistant - I unintentionally discovered that ;) still looks new after a few years!

    CamT's build thread

    One aspect of this build that has continued to bother me every time I lift up the rear clam is how low the adjustment collars sit on my rear shocks. For most who are running an LS/Graz combo along with a reasonable-for-the-street rear ride height, you'll find your collars are almost bottomed...

    I've continued to play with my 3D printer though my modeling skills are ... non-existent. I got some flack for my carbon center caps - apparently some people out there think there's actually such thing as "too much carbon fiber" WTF? Yeah, I don't get it either. However, I wasn't thrilled...

    Another post or two of updates; Before leaving San Diego my father in law and I took our hot rods out for one last run through the canyons, me in the SLC and he in his 1953 Studebaker Commander. The SLC had a slight edge in the tight stuff but he did pretty well keeping up! I particularly...

    Fuel Pump Relay

    Dave - do you run your pumps’ high current circuit directly through that wire coming from the GMPP fuse box? I was concerned with the load going through that relay and wired an additional set of relays for each of my pumps. The wire coming from the fuse box acts as my signal wire to these...

    Wow - it's been forever since I last updated my build thread. I guess since I'm no longer in the "build" stage there are fewer interesting updates. Looks like the last time I posted here was back in January - boy, have things really changed in the past 6 months! I'm still kicking and I'm...

    lol congrats Kurt! Reminds me of my first start as well, I was so surprised that it fired up and stayed alive I kinda froze for a bit. enjoy the car meet, prepare yourself for the insanity it will bring. My first event I didn’t stop talking for about 4 hours, people kept asking question after...

    Mason’s Build: Superlite SLC

    You are correct Mason - the bolt should be inserted going front to back, so the head is captured by that slot. If you want to remove the cross brace it will require disconnecting the rear shocks.

    Ride Height

    Target ride height with 0.5-1.0” different front to rear, with rear being higher. I have 4” and 4.5” blocks that I slide under my car for measurement. To adjust, get load off your wheels, loosen the 2 adjustment collars, then back the collar closest to the spring down or up depending on which...
