That is a good looking Escalade. I like the stance and what you've done to it. I assume the long tube headers are now in? How do you like the performance and sound? Who did your tune?

I went with American Racing Headers, Magnaflow exhaust, not cats and tune. I like the sound and performance. Not supercharrger on this one.

Hey Bruce, how hard was it to align the wheels, did you need the camber kit?

Alignment guy had no issues, no camber kit, he did leave mine at -1 for better handling purposes. Stock I think he said they are -.25ish if I remember right he said he wouldn’t be a problem.

Speed Engineering. Well done. The Escalade and the Supercharfed 02 were both tuned. What a difference a good tune makes.

What’s up Brucebruce45, the esky looking nice[emoji1360]! I’ve noticed you went the strut route. I’m looking to lower my esky another inch up front but I’m missing 2 strut rings. Would you happen to have any rings left over? I would be happy to buy them off you
