Default Stuff for mah V1

I'm making a list of maintenance items for my V1 for the next few months.
  1. 100K Maintenance Service
  2. CS Diff mount
  3. CS Diff Block
  4. CS Transmission mount
  5. LS7 Flywheel
  6. LS7 Clutch Kit
  7. LS7 Slave (Thanks wcryan)
  8. Pinion seal (Found grease on the exhaust shields this morning; have to check to see if was done under the recall)
  9. CS Motor mounts (when the current, new factory mounts fail)
  10. Shifter bushings
  11. PISNUOF Shifter
  12. Tune (also to turn the fans on earlier) (Thanks wcryan)
  13. Front Shocks

I'm planning on doing the diff and trans mounts in the next week or two.

Did I miss anything? (Remember this is DD, the car has plenty power . . . for now )

get the LS7 slave. You don't wana do all that work and put a spacer in it, and have your slave go out on you. Good idea since you are coming up on 100k

Mail order tunes are a waste of money. Go get a dyno tune. Spend the extra $200 for it. Or whatever the amount is

someone will chime up about a good tuner in SC

Also, you wont need the spacer anymore if you use the LS7 slave.

Read this thread. https://ls1tech.com/forums/cadillac-...-flywheel.html

It will help you save some money and also gives you exacly what you need to know. I guess SD parts has the whole clutch setup for like $495; which is a very good price
