    7.5 will it make it?

    As long as it has aftermarket axles in it, it should be fine. A friend of mine has a Monte running in the 11's with a other than stock 7.5 with aftermarket axles, possibly an aftermarket posi (cant remember if he said that he did), a 9 inch slick and boxed lower control arms. He's shot a 200 off...

    control arm stop

    Ohhh okay okay gotcha now I see what you're saying. I saw a plate like stop used on a 99' Yukon yesterday so the UCA didn't drop too far down. Could putting a bolt there or something else possible bend the control arm? Really it's all depending on how hard you launch but would it cause damage?

    control arm stop

    For what it's worth, I've seen alot of people replacing the stock, usually stiff by now, bumpstops with ZQ8 S10 bumpstops. People from the B-body forums like them as well as people with lowered suspensions. The bolt is probably alot cheaper but the stop is bolt in and it may be cheap insurance...

    First trans build TH350

    Yup, read the whole thread before posting on here after making my list. Very good thread I like the pictures it has because the books don't have very good pictures. But I did email him today with a bunch of questions I was asking.

    First trans build TH350

    Trans is supposedly from my father's old 69' Camaro. Took it apart today and the apply band is burned up pretty bad as are a couple steels and frictions (2nd and 3rd clutch packs). I've been researching as well as reading the Ron Sessions book and I think I have a solid parts list, what does...

    Exhaust Manifold Summary

    Did you by any chance try out the truck manifolds? I saw in the other thread you had you said that you've heard they wouldn't fit. I've also heard that "supposedly" they flow better then many aftermarket headers. Then again, you did say you aren't really worried about HP, just seeing if the...

    A/C Summary

    Do you think that one bolt will be enough for the A/C bracket with the compressor? I'm undergoing some changes in the engine bay including a serpentine swap from an 88' F-body, only problem is there's only 1 bolt in the p/s head. I see you made some support braces which is a very good idea. So...

    Pypes Race Pro Dual Exhaust System

    Haha next thing you're gonna say is that you have a old school Autometer 2" tach mounted above the heater/radio section of the dash :D . Just playing, I also have the Pypes kit with x-pipe. My headers went from the bottom in though, like you said with the starter and oil filter out. The starter...

    Headers Recommendations?

    Yeah get the Hooker's. The collectors on that set is 3" so if you have a full 2.5" make sure you get a reducer from Hooker also.

    Headers Recommendations?

    I say get the 2451's. Even though earlier it seemed like I was bashing them, the quality of the welds on the headers are pretty nice. I just got the normal painted ones and a couple spots they are dinged up but after 6 months of being on my car there are no cracking or flaking paint spots. The...

    Headers Recommendations?

    Yeah I have those as well. I think spark plug number 6 is worse than 8 though. Especially trying to seat the boot onto the plug on my Taylor 8mm. The boot is huge on those.

    transmission making noises in drive

    I know in manual transmissions, the trans will make noise in all gears except the one that has a bad part. Example; noise coming when in 1st, 2nd, and 4th, but not 3rd. Easy, problem is in 3rd. Seeing as automatics don't use gears, I have no idea.

    Headers Recommendations?

    Now I looked on Shoenfeld's website, it says for the G-body headers that it won't fit with the A/C blower box? Any truth to this?

    Headers Recommendations?

    Very nice! Any pictures with the spark plugs on those Shoe's?

    Headers Recommendations?

    Any pictures of the Shoe's and Flowtech's? What spark plugs are you all using? I'd like to get a good set of headers over the winter before I start doing a serpentine and electric fan swap started.
