Agree with Ted that there is a lot of dis-information on FB regarding cars/mods/etc. with hundreds of FB forums, but would not go as far as calling FB a "train wreck of information"- you just got to weed through the BS to find the truth.
Have you ever been on facebook? I do like Pray's stuff and I am sure the platform is making him a ton of money, which is awesome, but the FB being a trainwreck of bad information is one of the truest statements I have ever read and not just pertaining to Camaros I got in an argument on their one time with someone I used to work with trying to explain to him that he did not need a 3500 stall converter...in his 6 speed manual camaro.

Maybe I am just old but I have always loved the forum formats. I browse facebook for entertainment and trolling my ultra right and left wing friends.

Meth can be reliable.

You need to understand that those systems require maintenance like anything else.

I would replace the meth pump yearly. As well as upgrade to some BMRS meth rated line.


The Reflex controller is a great option as well. It's what I would recommend to most customers.

Totally agree… install the stainless lines and fittings with the meth for sure!

I had three AlkyControl pumps go bad when I was running meth, so definitely echo maintenance and replacing them. One of those was at a race and someone had already used the spare we had, so I was done. Another time a racers pump went bad and my car was down due to a broken driveshaft, so they took mine for him. Having just another thing to babysit, especially with a build that is max effort in every form of the definition, is just not fun.

Respectfully, on the FB comments, I find more valuable information there (and Instagram) than I have in here, in large part due to it being where the fast guys actually post. But, I'm just a drag racer, so maybe that is why. You definitely have to know where to look, where/who to avoid, and who to trust.

I absolutely concur regarding Facebook being a train wreck of bad info. I'm sure that Brett isn't posting bad information, but several others certainly are. I'm no Ted Jannetty or KingLT1 on issues relating to the gen6 Camaro, but I'm no dummy either. I have seen reams of absolutely incorrect information pertaining to our cars on Facebook.
The bad info on Facebook certainly isn't confined to the Camaro groups either. I'm an old dude, who has been into cars my entire life. I owned several '69 & '70 Mustangs, primarily Boss or 428cj/scj cars back in the day. I lived and breathed those cars for around 15 years. '69 - '70 Mustangs are one of the few things in this world that I truly am an expert on. If you think there's bad info on gen6 Camaros on Facebook, you should see some of the B.S. that's posted on Facebook about early Mustangs.

This format is far superior.

All of the information here is Vetted and easily found.

If someone post bad info here, they get politely corrected, and it remains public record.

You're smart enough to see thru the B.S. though. Lots of guys, especially the newbies would be much better served by starting in this forum, and only venturing out once they have a basic working knowledge. As others have stated, you can't get away with spreading misinformation on this Forum.
