Koni Install on LT1 ?
In the middle of installing my christmas present. Rears in no problem. Passenger side in no problem. But drivers side im stuck. For an LT1 w/o the soft brake lines from the master cylinder how the heck do you get to the torx bolt under the master? I tried loosening the master and pusing it out the way, but even with extension and a wobble attachment I cant get at it.

I took the 2 15mm nuts attaching the master off. Are you saying you can pull it off with the lines attached? I tried loosen the damn flare nuts with no success. I do have a flare wrench and tried heat.

Shoebox has a photo with the master cylinder moved with the lines still attached:

SUCCESS! Too easy but im just reluctant to force stuff. I will let you know how they are. Im doing c5 brakes at the same time. Cant wait till a test drive. Now my only obstacle is changing the damn front brake lines. Those flare fittings wont budge.

My SS has Bilsteins, but my old favorite is Koni. I had Konis on my BMW and they were outstanding. The B's are good too, and it's difficult to gauge the differences, but it seems the Konis were a little stiffer and have some tight rebound.
