My bad Will. It worked this time. Thanks (I think) spent more than I should have, again.

You got lucky! I just tried that 10% code and Summit told me it could only be used once and it must have been you!

You may have to call in- that code is on a catalog I got from the Cruisin’ Ocean City Maryland event and thousands of people likely have the same one.

I didn't call in but I did a chat session about it. They wouldn't budge so I told them I would go elsewhere. Ended up getting one from Jegs at a discount as well.

Summit has really gone down hill. I tried a lot of different stuff on this car that sometimes did not work. About a year and a half into this build they sent me a letter that told me I was gonna lose my shopping privileges if I didn’t stop returning stuff because I had a 28% return ratio. I called and explained my position and the lady I spoke to was rude. I shop anywhere I can but Summit now if I can. They ruined a 27 year relationship with a “corporate” letter.

Back in 2010 I installed a gearbox from Napa 88-277060. The box is still in use and serves me well for LONG distance driving, carving the Tail of the Dragon, some Autocross and semi-daily usage. If there was any reduced turn radius, it is nothing that I have not been able to live with.
(back in 2010 it was $139.00 out the door...)
