Challenger Hellcat Oil Change and No Dust Brakes
Afert 1000 miles of driving bliss, I figured I'd go ahead and perform the first oil change on Go Man Go to get that break-in oil change completed. Hellcat engines are broken in on the engine dyno prior to installation in to the car, but I still wanted to do one oil early oil change at 1000 miles. At the same time, I decided to swap the front brake pads for something less.....dusty. The factory brakes perform great, but MAN do they dust. I could drive 100 miles and the front wheels would be absolutely covered in black dust. No bueno!
