Thanks C4ever, the more I dove into this project the more I wanted to back out. so I am going to just install my amp to the stock stereo. By the way, C4ever, you have muffler eliminators on your 82 and 85 right? how is the volume of the exhaust at cruise and WOT? can you compare the sound to...

Last night I get the bright idea to wire in my Clarion head unit. blah blah blah....... My Hayes' manual doesn't have the right color description for wires in the manual. It mentions colors that arent there and leaves out colors that are there. Does anyone have a reference or know what...

Does anyone know if the flowmaster mufflers advertised in Eclkers, Jegs, and Summit for the 84-90 models will fit a '96 Lt1. Thanks -D -'77 muncie, coupe -'96 auto, coupe (daily driver)

As of this evening I am the proud owner of a green 96 auto LT1. As I was cruising around tonight the "SYS" message started blinking at me, no other warning lights are on. I dont have a manual so can someone give me some insight as to what the OBD II is trying to tell me. Thanks guys. -D...

78SilvAnniv, I sent you a PM. I didnt think there was enough room under the rear deck lid to get in there and do that. how cool, can you you give me any more info? thanks a bunch, guys aint this a great site!!! --D

I started her up today and noticed as I walked around her that there is a slow but steady fuel leak on the passenger side, near the rear corner of the fuel tank. Its dripping onto the passenger muffler. I'm guessing there is a rubber fuel line in that vicinity that has cracked. It only leaks...

The E-tec heads are for vortec intake maniflod (ports are .2" taller than standard sb heads). I have heard they can be machined to fit, but why go through all that when you dont have to. Through my research for heads, the only diference b/n the performer and RPM is that the performer has a...

Bubba was tuning my carbuerator!!! turns out the "cam sound" was lack of adjusting BOTH fuel mix screws on the edelbrock 600. HEHE I agree the performer cam isnt much. I have heard very good things about the high energy and Xtreme energy cams. vroom vroom Thanks everyone for your input...

Thanks for the input Roy. Here is where I stand in your outline. 1. put Edelbrock 600 on, Quadrajets give me nightmares... the edelbrock has always been reliable to me, every Quad I have had kept comming up with problems. 2. plug wires are in good shape, but some new sparkplugs are in...

the valve and pushrod not on the same centerline worries me, are there any other cyl heads I should consider? JHL-- why did you go with shorty headers instead of full length? Thanks, -D

Thanks for replying, I did more research on heads and found that the vortech weren't what I was looking for so I'll pay a lil more and get the Edelbrock 64cc heads. I swaped a Edelbrock carb adn performer intake on her today, much better than the tired old crap-a-jet and iron intake. Thanks...

I'm looking to get some mo' go go out of the momo (-ter) 8.2 compression :puke plan: headers- Hooker SC or Dynomax intake- Edelbrock Performer RPM carb- Edelbrock 600 or 750cfm cam/heads-??? my goal: streetable potent power for daily driver. 300+hp range. Id like to not break the bank on...

Thanks for all the replies. I got the clutch taken care, fixed the accelerator cable while I was down there.... :bang what a mess. Next week I will tackle the door locks and parking brake. I thought maybe the parking break was just in need of tightening but nnnoooooooo its all fubar :r oh...

"lock thingy"-- dont ya love technical terms ok now by "both sides" do you mean the driver and passenger side or both sides of the lock mechanism?? So I need to replace the entire lock assembly not just the key lock cylinder. Well I got her form a private owner, that wasnt very nice to...

Hey guys, I just got my 77 coupe 4spd monday night. I'm still in shock when I go to work in the morning and she is sitting in my driveway. :) I have a few questions: 1st. My dad drove the car yesterday and now the clutch go bye bye. how much should a new clutch/ flywheel +install run...

Are there any aftermarket seats fro the C3 that dont involve dremels and hacksaws to get them in? :)
