thank you sir... and "dem small calipers" stayen on there for a while becuase brakes arent in the budget.. plug only have less then an inch of clearance left from the stock lt1 brakes so i have no clue what ill use in the back when the time comes... doubt there is a fixed caliper out there that will clear the wheel

Rear brakes don't do a whole lot anyway... wouldn't worry about them

Gear oil is by far the most repulsive oil there is. Aside from burnt gear oil.

I do agree gear oil is rather putrid. Burnt dexcool is pretty bad too though....
