GTO Numbers
Permalink Closed


As some of you know, I brought my GTO to get the suspension redone, I went with a Pedders Street 2 kit which includes the 0 drop springs front and rear, Big Bore Shocks, GSR front struts with Ball end links X-Members, Diff insert, New TTY bolts, Bump stops, Strut Mounts and Bearings and The Cradles are Now in Alignment...

I also had the pedders upper strut bar, but already have a BMR Strut bar and decided to stay with the BMR

In addition I also added Hotchkis Front and Rear Sway bars...

I went with no drop due to our great streets....actually it looks like the car got raised a lil due to the new parts...the old suspension was reallllyyy bad...after sometime the parts should settle in and drop just a wee bit...

Lastly (and most importantly) I had the car dyno'd I don't have the sheet in front of me, but I made 365HP and 367 Torque... not to bad.....for now :)
