    to rebuild or not to rebuild

    I would look at the bearings, especially if this is the 2nd cam.

    18 inch wheels??

    One of the guys here has a wagon with 18s on the rear... I can't think of his username but he also has a late 50s Impala (like '58 or '59). Take a look through this thread: http://maliburacing.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=35753 One thing I'd like to do in the future sometime (I'll likely...

    Lets see some engine pics

    Is it that seafoam green they used on the S10s, or is it more like this color (my mom's old Suburban... r.i.p. 'Burb :()?

    Custom LED taillights...

    That's an interesting concept :-k My recommendation... don't get those plug-in ones you see at Autozone. They don't do a good job of lighting the taillight housing. Get a set like you see on that spaghetti engineering site: It will do a much, much better job at lighting the lens. I have a...

    Custom LED taillights...

    Have you checked these out too? Not sure if you've seen them, but it's more expensive than the LED lights if you already have 'em :lol: http://www.spaghettiengineering.com/comersus/store/grand_national_page.asp

    8.5 diff

    You can use wheels with different backspacing, but personally I'd want a stock-width rear (which would be doable).

    Opinions on this combo - new direction

    Re: Opinions on this combo It's probably a little big for the street I'm guessing... from some of the reading I did at LS1 Tech in the past they were talking about power under the curve, etc. since it seems even with a fairly stock long block these things make killer power up top with the right...

    Tach filter/erratic/unresponsive/etc.

    Re: Tach filter/erratic/unresponsive/etc. pics/video 56k death! After doing a bit of research as far as the tach signal goes, I did the math (based upon the crankshaft rotates at ½ the speed of the cam, or the other way around... I'm a little tired, but the math I did works out) and it comes...

    Tach filter/erratic/unresponsive/etc.

    Huzzah! I found one :lol: I just need to figure out how loud it needs to be for the correct voltage (I'm guessing it doesn't need much) to test it for the "rpm" it's supposed to read. http://heliso.tripod.com/download/generator/dsg.htm To do this you'll need a 12v power supply (car battery...

    Tach filter/erratic/unresponsive/etc.

    I didn't have a pot. in the range I needed (highest was 10k-ohms), so I dove into my treasure trove of electronic bits & pieces, came up with a couple 100k-ohm resistors. I'll wire these in temporarily (with the white/red wiring) and try to find myself a signal generator...

    Tach filter/erratic/unresponsive/etc.

    Well, after cutting the trace from the #4 pin, I measured the resistance, came out to about 305kΩ... Everybody on the F-Body forums and in the MonteSS.com article have been saying it should be somewhere around 190-200kΩ. I'll probably go the route of using a small potentiometer to get the...

    Tach filter/erratic/unresponsive/etc.

    Thought I'd do some searching around for tachometer repair, and maybe figure out what causes error on the tachs... low & behold I found an article on the Monte SS forum (http://www.montecarloss.com/community/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=646206#Post646206). I'm gonna give it a shot &...

    Tremec TKO-600 (2)

    I believe outside friction materials, you will only have a couple different OE clutch sizes for SBC/BBC. Far as what I've found, they're either a 10-spline or 26-spline unit. Some Fords had 10-spline (T10s, etc.... older transmissions like Saginaws), and they also have another spline count...
