    Auto Transport companies

    I would NOT recommend Mecum or McCollister's Transportation Group! My '12 LS arrived with a large scratch along the top section of driver door, clearly caused by transport driver scooting between cars with something sharp hanging from his waist (keys, phone, pocket knife, jacket zipper, etc.)...

    Has anyones used a transport company?

    Wow! Paddy, your story sounds almost exactly like mine. I got quotes from 4-5 transport companies, all were competitive. I arranged to have Mecum transport my Boss from Phoenix to DFW via enclosed trailer. I even had them provide certificate of insurance. Mecum sub-contracted the job to...

    Tremec Magnum XL Fluid Discussion

    I recently swapped a Magnum XL (2.66) into my '12 Boss 302S "clone"; this thread seems like best place to ask 2 questions about my recent oil change.1. After the first oil change @700 miles, I noticed a lot of tiny, microscopic, metal flake in the oil. The oil had nearly the same appearance...

    GT350 Front Brake Pad Replacement Tips

    Hey Tob, Definitely planning to put some on my GT350! However, like C. Victor above, I'd like to know your pros/cons of stainless vs 4340. I've seen rust on some 4340's but the stainless have less tensile strength. Since you offer 2 materials, there has to be pros/cons of each. Please...
