Default UPS man part 2

Well the big brown truck pulled up again at work today![sm=happy046.gif] and dropped off some BMR lower control arms and panhard bar, Hurst sts, and 373 gears from brenspeed. I put the control arms and panhard bar on today, turned out really good. Made sure i greased up the bushings good, no squeeks here. The shifter is gonna take some getting used to. I like the less travel but its just real notchy. Is there anything i can do to make it not as notchy, or is that just the way it is? I went with the 373 gears, i have 331 now and i also plan on supercharging the car so the 373 sounded like the way to go. Also will definitly be doing business with brenspeed again!!

Some people say the shifter loosens up a bit after some use but the MGW is apparently the way to go to get rid of notchy.

Either way, CONGRATS!!!!

Awesome!! You will love everything. About the HURST, they will loosen up a bit but not much. The reason i love my hurst is cuz of the short throw, and notchyness!!

I also made sure to grease my control arms and panhard bushings. No squeaking whatsoever. Sounds like stock, but handles better!

On Sunday I'm heading out to my cousin's shop and we're installing LTs, Prochamber, LCA Relocation Brackets, Adj. Panhard Rod, and UCA if Mr. UPS shows up tomorrow... [/align]
