Alright so after Big Willow, there was the redline time attack at buttonwillow, which i didn't go to because I was starting to become weary of the AP1 retainer cracking issue. Also I heard after the button willow event that one of my buddies AP1 retainers gave up that day and dropped a valve in the motor. So I decided to reinforce the valve train by only buying a brian crower dual valve spring/steel retainer kit, as well as cleaning up the head and replacing all the gaskets/seals that were worn out. Didn't buy valves or cams because they weren't bent and I'm on a budget. Dropped it off at Tony F. shop auto function and the car felt like it gained throttle response, and my mpg's shot up! In addition, I also bought some buddy club roll center adjusters so I could move my front camber from 0.3 to 2.5 More low speed turn in hehe!

Hi there BBK's should clear at 17x9 +38 offset, if you go 45 offset it will need a 5mm spacer
