Haha, you will probably be fine but if you are going to do it, and it a significant/critical part my motto is over build so you don't have to worry about reliability.

I've had the Whiteline bushings for a number of years. Did fine for DD with a little fun on occasion. But now I want to take it to the track, and I don't trust them. So I just bought SPL bushings.

I slept on it last night and decided I wanna be like you when I grow up. Placed an order for the SPLs with my parts guy. :tup:

So I just doubled my build budget. Total WHP increase: 0

:shakes head:

Between hotrodz and JC, by the time I'm done with mods/repair/maintenance, I'll have a z with the transmission and suspension ready for a 1000+ HP motor. I'll save myself some money and not post what body mods I want..lol

You'll enjoy the increased rigidity in your chassis though, or at least, I know I did.

You starting to feel the gravity pull to the rabbit hole yet? As you get closer. The pull gets stronger.

Not quite. The bbk, was a vanity mod, purely for aesthetics. Camber links and bushings were necessary. SPL necessary? maybe not, but overbuilding it is!
