Best Chevrolet dealership... Warranty work
 
Can anyone recommend a good Chevy dealer for warranty work in the St. Petersburg/Clearwater area. Maybe mod friendly, or not asking many questions. Just fixing what's broken.

I had problems shifting the stock shifter since day one. Yesterday, while redlining third I accidentally shifted to second instead of fourth. Tires locked up, revs skyrocketed, and bad things happened.

I think it might just be bent pushrods, but it might be more. I only have one code which is a misfire. I'll be sure to get an aftermarket shifter right away though.

bent pushrod no doubt. Hopefully no bent valves. Shouldnt be too big a deal. Definately gotta watch that 3 to 2 accidental shift...Ive done it myself before. Scares the CRAP out of ya!!

i had the same thing happen to my SS. definitely a bent pushrod. i highly doubt they are going to warranty it man. pushrods in these motors dont bend that easy, and thats basically the only way to bend them is by overreving. fuck it, just spend the money, upgrade the pushrods, put in some 1.8 roller rockers, roller lifters, etc. i had my work done at Ramseys w/a 1 week turn around period and they are fair priced as well. just some food for thought.
