Saw all you guys at Santa Clara on Jan 2. Congrats all!
ref Shell Valley Daytona #27
Went to SF CHP today for my VIN, took 5 minutes! Officer Dwyer was great .. show me the vin, OK done.
Went down the block to get Brake and Light ...
FAILED Brake Inspection - big hassle trying to get specs for Ford 9" stuff and Wilwood Dynalite front. Long story short, rear discs were not within min specs!$%#@!
(only 1400 miles on car!) Changing to Mustang Cobra rear kit anyway ... What did I learn? Bring lots of docs for brake system with all the specs (hopefully on your reciepts) so they don't have to look it up, especially if it's aftermarket stuff or off a donor car. ... Or they can pull off your wheels and look at the rotors and ... $$$??? (but that's too easy ..) $60 but no charge for retest.
Passed light inspection after adjustment. $60
Total time: 2 1/2 hours.
Have appointment for BAR at Skyline College on Friday. Looks like they are not back logged in San Bruno or San Jose.
Will get another brake inspection after I change to Mustang Cobra rear brakes
Good news is that I drove down to Monterey this weekend with the rebuilt motor. The TKO 500 OD and 3:50 rears gave me over 20 MPG
Anyone know about registration fees after May 15th? What kind of increase?
