I was beginning to wonder that myself. It may be chafed somewhere and some of the strands are broken... can't carry the current as well and heats up? I don't know...

Take a voltmeter to the power connector for the radio for good measure :P I'm a little stumped what could be doing this so far. Do you have any other aftermarket radios you could try?

You'll also need your tire size to make sure it's correct.

I was a little off in my explanation I guess. You need to pull the intake to get easy access to the starter on the 4-cylinder because of how everything is cast.

I do so like the looks of that truck :)

Hey, be happy. In a Northstar engine (also one of the Saturn 4-cylinders), probably many other motors too, you have to pull the intake off just to get to the starter because it's down in the V where the lifter valley would be (OHC motor).

When it talks of 'earlier' v6s, it's probably talking about before they switched to one piece rear main seals, etc. in '87 with the small blocks. You'll know for sure when you to to put the flywheel on.

Many of the newer radios also just have the fuse on the back of the chassis.

Wiring it directly to the battery wouldn't fry it, unless there was too much voltage... in which case everything else would get fried too. The fuses are there so if it draws too much current you don't fry something. Voltage and current are two very different things.

I'm not sure if your bellhousing has a provision for it, but the ballstud on the G-Body bellhousings was (I'm guessing here) about 3/4" below the 'normal' ballstud for the clutch fork. You also need a G-Body-specific clutch fork. I also agree with what Turna says. For a bellhousing/fork, you...

:lol: You change allegiances quite quickly ;) Sucks he got fired :?

Lookin' good :D

That's my plan :D I just have to get the interior/exterior trim & correct glass.

... but will it bolt onto a Malibu is the question.

I have a few pics of what you need to remove to change it (planning the same for mine):

That's an excellent build :D Not a bad price on the blower for sure... Some (maybe all) of the centrifugal type (look almost like a turbo, bolt to the front of the motor) use an oil line. The article basically says that one doesn't require any maintenance, i.e. bolt on and go. At the same...

So long as the axle splines are correct.

Yeah, I haven't measured the back yet (no clue on side-to-side with the old bushings), just tried to get an idea of whether or not I'll even be close to being able to fit them. The wheels themselves are 9" or 9½" I think, maybe even 10"... they came in all those sizes :-k Being a 40 series I...

I'm going to be attempting a 275/40/17 on mine (came on the wheels :?), I hope I'm not being overly hopeful on them fitting :lol: Overall width of the tire is about 10 7/8", height is about 25 3/4". I used my little tire tool doohickey and it looks like with the right backspacing (spacers) I...

You shouldn't rely on the battery to power your components when the car is running. Essentially you use the battery only to start the car, and the alternator handles the issue of charging and keeping your components going. If they're drawing more than what the alternator can produce, it's time...
