    Rally gauge question

    If it has dummy lights where the volt/temp/oil gauges would be, then no. You need a different cluster housing and printed circuit board. There are also some changes in the harness plug you need to make.

    What did U do to your G-body today??

    They probably lean because I'm guessing they used the outside mounts? The seats in my '81 are like that, it was before I became familiar with the way G-Body seats are mounted. My '78 had a split bench so it had all the mounts for buckets... found a set at a local junkyard for $40 and they...

    What did U do to your G-body today??

    Be sure to run the proper projectors with HIDs... http://www.theretrofitsource.com/ I'm pretty sure they make a set that will fit into an H4 housing relatively easily (composite replacement for 6054 headlight).

    possible turbo build.. give me direction

    They're the same block, I believe just shorter stroke... probably similar to 350 to a 383.

    possible turbo build.. give me direction

    700 is basically yhe same as 4L60E, just not electronic.

    possible turbo build.. give me direction

    I would vote a turbo cam for your power range, research the turbo to make sure you're in the best efficiency range, 4L80 for sure (durability). My thought is why not go for a T-Type/GN style intercooler setup?

    HVAC guys... R12 vs. R134 and other A/C ?s

    Looks like that's probably the route I'll go. Did you have to do anything to the Blazer lines?

    heater core 78 wagon

    S10s and full size Chevy trucks ('88 through at least '94) are straight up evil. A Fiero on the other hand can be done in literally 20 minutes. I had to do mine less than a month after getting it, I was quite surprised.

    Buick V6 TBI conversion

    Look at the EBL too. It's basically a plug & play setup that you tune via laptop from the driver seat. I'm running a 383 capable of 370-400hp with it, liquidh8 has used it as well. Personally I think it's the bee's knees far as TBI is concerned, and Bob is great with tech support. He should be...

    What did U do to your G-body today??

    I'm anxious to get my '78 out here to AZ, I'll drive it every day. Wicked6 take a look at the replacement starters for Vortec.8 trucks (168 tooth) and LT1 cars (153 tooth). They're gear reduction, cost a little more than regular SBC starters but will likely last longer in the grand scheme of things.

    need help please

    You should be able to run up to about 4 7/8" backspacing up front, that's what I tried with my 17x9.5", but they stuck out a little past the fender (my car is also lowered) :x I think 17x8s would quite possibly fit, could probably run 255/45s, and they'll be almost 1/2" taller than 275/40s. A...
