    LS6 and LS5 Engines

    Corrections.....ugh..... 2 things to correct here. Got in touch with the guy I bought this car from and he corrected me and said it was an engine from a '71, not a '70. However, after checking the numbers on the block, it was traced to being cast on December 12. 1978 and for a truck, not a...

    LS6 and LS5 Engines

    More on the 454 LS6 saga... Ok, I now know the block was produced in Dec. of 78 for a truck. So most likely it went into a '79 truck. The heads are rectangular port and have "HI-PERF" stamped in them, but I put a magnet to them and it didn't stick, so they are not aluminum. Getting info...

    '81 Temperature Guage on Dash

    Has anyone had problems with their temp guage inside their car? Mine was working fine and now all of a sudden it lays limply and unmoving below the hot side. I have wiggled the terminal and then sometimes it works, but will eventually go limp while I am driving. Not sure if this is related or...

    '73 Shifting Question

    Reverse Shifting Mine clicks too, but I find that I have to wiggle it around a bit first to make that click happen. If I am backing out of the driveway onto the street, which is busy, I have to make sure I allow enough time to play with it to get it to leave R and go into 1st. It is not a...
