Only thing i see being able to convince me to sell my SS is if a ZL1 is the result.

I believe PTM works in conjunction with the eDiff and active suspension found on the 1LE. Even if you could flash the software onto the ECU, would still need to integrate the rear diff and fancy...

agreed.
My guess is that the whole rack may have shifted? A curb hit or impact should only effect one side which would throw off total toe and change camber. Since the total toe stayed the same....

You will be fine. By the time you get out of the city you will be plenty proficient. I find the Camaro clutch to be quite forgiving.


Also, I am happy to take your place.
