best mod: none yet (She's pretty much perfect as is.)
worst mod: SLP Loudmouth II exhaust. It was on my 'Vette one week. It sounded great outside the car, but I didn't realize I would hear them so loudly inside. (I'm currently waiting on 0311retired to sell his NPP exhaust so he can buy my exhaust). I put the stock exhaust back on.
What did you spend on the 4.10 gears? Did it make night and day difference over the stock 3.42?
It was a while ago but if I am not mistaken I paid about $1k for parts and labor. They spent the time to make sure that they lined up perfect so that there is no "whining". BIG night and day difference. The gears are shorter but it pulls so nice on the freeway now. You shift more but I didn't get a manual tranny to complain about shifting (Ya Know).

My best mod is probably my Vette Essentials/DD Mods interior. The reason is that I get to enjoy it every time I drive the car, even when driving 10 MPH in bumper-to-bumper, high-season traffic.
Second place would probably be my CCW 505As. Changed the profile and look of the car as I love the deep dish!
Worst mod? None really as I'm happy with everything I have done to improve the looks and performance of the car. The only thing I am done with are the stick-on letters. I like them and I'm currently running a set of nice rounded SS Mid-America letters in the back, however I have lost other cheaper nylon and plastic 3D sets in the heavy Florida rainstorms, plus I have had some letters "mysteriously" disappear at mixed car shows over the years. I just had my front SS "double TTs" disappear at a show last month and I know they didn't fall off because I detailed the car upon arrival and they were there. If they had fallen off, they would have been on the ground underneath the car.
i guess the cam was a turning point (the best) and when I hear the car it just makes me smile.
The worst was buying a set of 3X heads from a place in NJ that made zero HP.

Did you install the Baer Eradispeed Plus 2 rotor kit? If so, those are 14" rotors in the back correct? Since you are also running CCW 505As, did you need to shave the rear calipers or did you add spacers to fit the new rotors?
