    What spray paint do you use?

    I do, seriously :mrgreen: I usually shake it for several minutes.

    What spray paint do you use?

    I tried that, but after a few seconds it was still spraying so I stopped. With the Dupli-Color it cleared up within 3 seconds or so.

    What spray paint do you use?

    Painting the engine yesterday, I realized I got two different brands of paint - first RustOleum when I painted the heads a while back, then Dupli-Color yesterday. I found something out: Spraying with Rustoleum sucks (at least with this can), the Dupli-Color sprayed much nicer and covered much...

    seats

    Any G-Body will fit. If you have a split bench it uses bucket seat tracks, but if it's a full bench you would need the mounts near the trans tunnel to put buckets in. I think one of the guys said late (4th gen.) F-Body seats bolted right to his seat tracks.

    In dash tach not reading correct when hooked up to msd 6al b

    Re: In dash tach not reading correct when hooked up to msd 6 A little late to the party... I had the same issue. I have a 2nd tach that reads even worse than the first one. I also used this one: http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/electronics/357893-90-92-tachometer-fix.html

    What all needs to be hooked up to my hei dizzy?

    Technically it's next to the ground ;) But yes, the external tach connection is next to the +12v lead. http://www.chevelles.com/techref/techref5.html The 3-across connectors are where the module plugs in, and the other two are for +12v/tach.

    What all needs to be hooked up to my hei dizzy?

    Basically for the distributor to work you need that 3-prong plug to be plugged into the coil (where the pins come through to connect a switched 12v), that and the switched +12v are all you need for the distributor to work. Off the top of my head there is a green wire for temperature/dummy...

    Anyone put "gears" behind a 3.8?

    Does it have a 350 or 2004R? With the o/d trans it would probably be just right for the expressway.

    Turbo or Supercharger?

    Yeah... I'd say that kit is ok for the plumbing, but I wouldn't use he included turbos. I was reading about a turbo build (can scan it if you want it), and the waetegate wasn't opening fast enoug and overboosting the engine. They replaced it and it ran a lot better, but still didn't run up to...

    Looking for muffler suggestions

    I replaced a regular Flowmaster 40 with a Delta Flow and noticed no change in interior resonance (there was quite a bit). I'm shocked with the low amount of resonance with my Pypes setup. At 55mph or so you can hear it a little bit, but it's a low amount. On the expressway I hear more road...

    Valvespring height vs. daily driver

    Ok. The springs I'm looking at are an installed height of 1.7", and they're basically a drop-in spring, I'm just not sure what my heads will come out at (stock 193... late model 350 TBI heads).

    Valvespring height vs. daily driver

    That, sir, will be awesome :D I'll have to let you know when it's almost time to get the retainers, etc. so I can measure.

    Valvespring height vs. daily driver

    Nope, already knew all those goodies :) I'm just trying to justify whether or not to invest in a valvespring micrometer. I have no problem calculating required installed height for springs, it's just I'll have to get shims, etc. if they're too far off. I'm looking at a Comp complete cam kit...

    Gauge Pics

    My dad works at the metal fab plant in Flint... when I was up there beginning of Oct. he took me for a drive past it and if I remember right, he said it's the last diemaking plant in the U.S.... pretty sad if you ask me.

    ok..so lets see em!!

    I do gotta say that looks nice. I've been thinking of how I want to do my interior. I've tried to do different shades with other vehicles (i.e. black/gray) but it didn't seem to flow well. I may go the route you did though, it doesn't look half bad. I may go slightly darker on the gray though.
