Sam, i've got 20 sets of Pfadt coilovers coming in next week. I'll let you trial fit my personal coilovers to see how they fit.. If you like them, i'll hook you up on a set if/when your ready.
This way you dont have to fork out a ton of cash if they do nothing for you..

I purchased hose just like what you have but in 3" diameter. The problem I have is there is hardly any room between the AC compressor hardlines and the frame on the passenger side. Even the smaller diameter hose is pinched down in this area. What did you do to avoid this very tight area ? Larger hose is still going to be pinched down inhibiting flow. The AC lines are in such a place that it seems unavoidable to pinch the inlet hose.

Congrats on the new combo. 700 and change is definitely more than enough power in my opinion to get the job done. That's at a power level where you really have to be careful how you drive the car to stay safe.

I have the coil overs and and would route the hose the same way you have yours. They should fit. The problem I have is the AC lines crush what ever I try to place on that side. Can you get a picture of the new AC lines and how it looks with the inlet hose?

Thanks Garth!
Leading Edge Performance in Las Vegas is an amazing shop , I dont think i have ever been treated like Family as the way this shop treated me! Garth was more concerned about my car than i was
Garth gave me a play by play on everything that was going on, He put my car ahead of other cars when he did not have to.
Even when my car was done , he called me up with hows everything going
For any f-body, GTO, Corvettes in Vegas , who want undivided attention and a shop that goes above and beyond , I HIGHLY RECOMMEND giving Leading edge Performance a call!!702-375-4999
They have experience with TTIX , APS all S/C's ,MAGGIES , HEADS AND CAM ,any drivetrain .custom fabs , you name it!!!
oh and NO "Corvette Tax"
Thank You!!
