I have wondered the same thing. Eric I have the same KB control arms and I have them installed the way you do, but I have also seen the picture Jimmy posted on their website. I got back under the car and tried to put them on according to that picture and they don't fit. So I put them back on the same way you have them. I have several track days and probably 3,000 miles on my car with no issues. They are just noisy. Maybe we are both wrong though, who knows...

Justin and I put the MGW on today. I was getting used to the stock shifter and forgot how amazing that MGW is. Worth every penny.

Fantastic! Thanks for letting me know. Your new suspension setup looks killer by the way. Be sure and let us know how it performs. Also, I believe you mentioned Chicane23, are you located near OKC or north Texas? I'm in Tulsa, OK and have a friend with a Boss who has had some work done at the OKC shop.

Im thinking about dropping that stripe and then adding

Steve. Let your Boss sit in direct sunlight for an hour and the decal will peel right off. It will look fine without the hood decal. ;)

I did this with Ditzler Textured Blackout paint. OEM for 1969 Boss 302 hood and decklids.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Late to the party, but...

...On the whim, I decided to spend $20 & 15 minutes at the muffler shop today, during lunch, and have them slap my new 3/4" discs on the side-exhaust. :eek: Damn! ;D

Discs were well worth the money. Likewise on the $20 install to avoid having to wait three more days.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Dealer installed TracKey software. Haven't had any time to play with it as it's raining. Wasn't too impressed with the so called lopey idle but I could tell it was there. Also had the windows tinted, 25% on the sides and 10% on the back glass, Arkansas limits. Looks good!

the hotter the car gets the better the trackey idle. I did find that the trackey lopey idle was very inconsistent. AED lopey idle is spot on perfect and sounds great :)
