Any of you guys are planning on doing the Cars & Coffee at Blackhawk? I been these several times and this is a hell of a venue around. This place will pack between 700 to 1000+ cars depending on which month.

Blackhawk host one of the best Cars & Coffee in the area. They have a good variety of modern muscle, American muscle, European exotics, and very little Fart cans there. Big turnouts every time. I went to the last Cars & Croissant in Santana Row and it was a little disappointing as there wasn't much of participate like we thought. Blackhawk is probably just as good if not better than Treasure Inland's Car & Coffee.

Very nice! Will you have a before and after dyno sheet?

Will you need to raise the front of your car up a little after this?

They only did an after dyno. I don't think the ride height will be affected, but won't know til Saturday when we go pick it up. I know with the Edelbrock kit is heavier and would require front height adjustment.

Josh said I got 550rwhp 👍😁

I had to raise mine back up a little.. The close to 100 extra lbs makes a big difference if your car is already lowered .But its an easy fix, just a few turns... depending on how much you hve to adjust you may need to have alignment adjusted ..... I didn't at the time.. I was waiting till I got the new tires.... but never got to do it cause well you know.. some asshat totaled my car....LOL
