Yeah, it's a good deal. I tried them all out again this morning and all articulated smoothly. So that's good.

How about $840 shipped for the Bassani system? That's how much I paid for mine

You were the one that found it for that price I think! We PM'd back and forth about it last year, just dug up the PM

Anybody have experience with the CTS-V Brembo brake setup? If so, see my thread on the brakes I'm trying to put together:

I might buy the calipers and just have them for the time being. Amazon has them for $242 shipped.

Hmm, so I'm finally about the pull the trigger on the converter. FTI 3800 or Circle D 4C or 2E. Been talking to Chris @ Circle D and he thinks their custom 2E might be the ticket. 4000 stall, 800 RPM drop between shifts, and better than 95% efficiency on the top end. It's a bit loose, but it seems awesome.

Anyone ever run it? Sounds like a PT4000 type of converter...

Waiting to hear back. Chris will talk to you in the middle of the night it seems.

His 2E is a pretty interesting piece tho...
