Trying to save the money and not going fully adjustable on suspension parts. Just ended up re buying them and selling the old for half the price.

 

i doubled gasket'd my oil filter the other day. start my car up and it puked 2 quarets of oil all over the driveway

 

On this car? Nothing but this was my second Fbody.

On the first one instead of just buying a cam I spent a ******* ton in worthless bolt on's like air foil,underdrive pulley and things of that sort (It was an LT1)

 

One word, Tornado...

 

Bullshit! I can't believe anyone is that stupid.

Be wary of install days with tons of people working on your car... I can't find half of my interior screws after the nitrous install, lol.

 

getting my car tuned after my header install

 

why would that be a mistake?

 

Mine was more of a newbie not mod mistake. I had a 12-bolt with 4.11's and sticky tires (and a bunch of other stuff) before I got SFC's

I just forgot about them...

 

when is it worth it to start looking into roll bars/cage?

 

when the track kicks you out for not having one.

 

any clue what times they do that at?
i kno you have to wear a helmet when you get into the 13.xx's, least thats the rules for the track out by me

 

I believe its somewhere in the 11's that you need a roll bar, and 9.99 for cage. don't quote me on that tho. I know with my local 1/8 mile its 7.49 that you need a roll bar.

 

11.49 or quicker is a roll bar

9.49 or quicker or 150mph or faster is a 'chute I believe.

And a bar at 7.49 in the 1/8th would put you mid 11's in the quarter so that sounds about right...

 

Changing gears in my 10 bolt after I broke the factory set. Should have done a 12 bolt at that time.

 

trying to make my DD a race car !!!!!

 

not knowing how to swap the intake properly and breaking the damn oil pressure sensor

 

That sounds right.

on my third set now

 

screwing up my credit and not being able to buy a f bod sooner!

 

My mistake was along the same lines, however, I DID purchased the 12 bolt. I don’t dislike 12 bolts but, I purchased it from Moser . NEVER PURCHASE A 12-BOLT FROM THESE PUNKS UNLESS YOU WANT TO GO DEAF!! Worst choice of upgrade I ever had. At 40 MPH you couldn't even have a conversation with the person sitting next to you without shouting. BIG thanks to Lonestar Performance in Garland TX for making the best of the situation and at least making the rear end tolerable for me.
