Default Camber Brace Installation

Installing the Camber Brace yesterday took me 1 hour. It was a tight fit but with my son helping to guide it in, it went in on the first try. I only had to lossen the serpentine belt to remove the control arm bolt. I would suggest removing the harness clips that are attached to the water pump. I broke one of them. I didn't have to use any of the supplied shims. I just have to go out and buy a serpentine belt tool today to re-install the belt. There isn't enough room now to get my breaker bar down past the brace.
This being my first mod(I guess really an add-on), I can't wait to try it out.

It must be harder on the LT1's because of the engine design. On my L98, it took about 10 minutes.

Yep, there is more room in the L98. The LT1/4 is a little more time consuming. But well worth the results!! :steering:
