Just wondering what everyone thinks of the home made limiter so far. It's going to be a temporary thing until I can save up for some TRZ's with the built in limiter. The flat Speedway arms complicate things and hit the frame before the upper BJ binds, so this is why I did this. Right now it's...

The car is quick, but I feel there is a lot left including my 1.71 60'. The car ran 11.83@115 with that time. Stock springs, bilstein shocks, spohn rear sway, front sway removed, Nitto 245/50 nt555r drag radials, 3400lb car with 3.73. Since then I added some cheap 3-way adjustable shocks, and a...

Will be used on track, looking to improve my brutal 60'. Found a set of prostars powdercoated gloss black for $500. Want to check with the experts first. Don't want a tire sticking past the fender (stock height) Fronts 15x4 1.75bs Rears 15x8 3.25bs Any thoughts on this setup? Tire size? I...

The wheels are basically a "knock off" of TTII's, Coys, and Foose's classic 5-spoke wheel. I really like them and I'm wondering if anyone has a set of these with LS1 brakes. I know the TTII's have problems with the LS1 brakes so I want to know before I order a set of wheels, if they will cause...

I'm doing a new swap and since LS engines use same side radiator hose openings, I went with a same side radiator. However the radiator tanks are larger, as is the core, and really is more of a universal fit radiator. The LS specific for a G-body was close to $650 :shock: So where is everybody...

Well I'm not starting the swap yet, I don't even have the engine trans accessories or anything, but I'd like to make a thread to clear up a couple questions I have. First one is, how would you guys go about using both a Gen III/IV engine and a newer trans like a 4L60E in our cars? I was...

I have a Goodwrench 350 crate engine, the 8.5 compression one, and I'm doing some upgrades around the engine. I'm adding a serpentine setup from a 88' F-body, and since I have only one accessory bolt hole in the passenger side, I decided to try and fabricate something to strengthen that side up...

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...

Just wondering how much had to be taken out of the driveshaft. I bought what was thought to be a driveshaft for a GN but it's the same as the one that's on the car right now.

Hey all, picked up an 87' Monte LS cluster with speedo, fuel gauge, three dummy lights and the MC logo in the tach's spot. I switched all the pins around for the connector on the back side, but I'm only getting the seatbelt light and the turn signals, but I'm not getting the choke, voltmeter...

Hey all, picked up a knocking noise in the 355 that was in my Malibu and for the rest of the year, we are gonna put the engine that we took out of the car back in. The engine is a GM Goodwrench crate replacement, 8.5:1 CR, Edelbrock Performer Air Gap, 670 Holley Street Avenger carb, 1-5/8 Hooker...

Hey all just picked up a 8.5 rear end today. Bought it knowing it wasn't posi, because I have one in the garage. Problem is, it's out of a newer style GM truck with 30 spline axles and the battle is between trying to get axles for a 30 spline, or buying a new 28 spline posi unit. I'm pretty...

I just got done replacing the pan gasket and filter, and the trans still leaks. It seems like more towards the front right side. Before fluid covered everything from the TC shield back to my trans x-member. If the car sits for 15-20 minutes no leaks, but it just starts leaking when I'm not...

Hey all, I think I saw a thread on here a while ago but I lost it and now I have a question about it. Is anyone on here running the second style ZQ8 S10 wheels with the 1LE brake setup? If so, what is needed? The tire size on the wheels is 245/50/16. Thanks for anyone's help.

Hey all, installing a Sun Pro (it will work for now) tach in my 79' Malibu. Right now I'm replacing the speedometer cable and thought well I might as well run the wires for the tach. Would it be a problem if I ran the tach signal wire (green) next to the speedometer cable through the firewall...
