    vador hood scoop

    Is it just me or is that thing starting to look more like a tuned up GTA or Formula rather than a Vette?

    85 (heads)

    He's talking about hairline cracks not huge valleys. Usually all machine shops will magnaflux the heads for cracks before machining because who wants to waste their time right? Feel good about it you'll know for sure if you got a primo set of heads or if its time to go shoppping. You wouldn't...

    Pump or Rack???

    Morning Sickness from your rack Id bet. What happens is the metal that makes up the components of the rack are harder than the aluminum sheath that surrounds them. As time go's on the aluminum gets warped but the components stay true causing binding in the steering until lubrication is fed...

    engine trouble--need opinions

    Do you have an open air box? What might have happened is you got water into the engine and it eventually died. Also when you installed the Opti could it have been damaged or sealed unproperly causing the weather you had to kill it?

    98 cutting out

    Describe "gauges are flipping" Are all the gauges reseting like as if you just started the car or?... If they are I would say you have either a computer problem (yet no codes) OR an ignition problem. What might be happening is the ignition is reseting...Hmm I wonder if the alarm is shorting...

    Buying Vette

    Im telling everyone and some think Im crazy but heres my theory. Car companies and sticking microscopic charges of C4 in various parts on the cars now. Every car has them in different areas. Now heres the catch! they are set to explode 1000 miles after warranty. If you bought extened...

    Buying Vette

    Theres flaws with all cars.... If your after a newer looking car go for the 93. They have fixed a whack of troubles with the car by then and the only thing I (and I mean I ) don't like is the LT1 they are a trick to work on and I don't like the optispark system they have. But again thats my...

    88 Coupe - will not start when hot

    Also after you've cleared fuel as a possible answer, try pulling off a plug wire from the cap. If you have no spark MOST likely you've got a module problem. Simple fix: Pull off cap Take off Rotor You'll see the module now. Kinda horseshoe shaped Plugged into a wire harness at one end and...

    Should I switch from the green stuff to Dexcool?

    I won't touch Dexcool IMHO its garbage. Heres my reasoning... Has anyone ever seen that blacky browny crud in a Dexcool overflow tank? Reason is if you DON'T look after you car the way we do our Vette's the water in the coolant will evaporate as steam from the overflow...NORMAL but Dexcool...

    Chrome Roll Bar

    Here it is. Stainless is more bucks yes but way easier to finish AND to bend and fabricate. BUT. A105 Mild could possibly be used as a actual NHRA standards roll bar with some proper schematic's PICK! Choose your flavor! Pretty or functional! (Wishing I had a convert now!!)

    Chrome Roll Bar

    You know, how hard could these things possibly be? If we're not talking about NHRA standards just cosmetic this could be fabricated easily. Whats the pipe diameter of these things? 1 1/2? So either do it yourself OR have a welder/fabricator take the pipe and bend it. (Various ways of doing...

    89 ground location for cluster

    All I know is that there is only one. Is comes from the lower panel relaying to the upper via the pins. One of my pins were fryed so I soldered a wire from the lower circut to the upper then to the wire connection....works like a charm. It takes a little tracing with a multimeter and a test...

    Want to improve performance of an 1985

    Here I go again LOL. I have installed a WHACK of couple hundred buck style performance parts and the ONLY one I've felt a very noticable difference is....Aftermarket ignition. Im a MSD fan myself but everyone seems to have one now. The MSD 6A is a good choice in that it delivers 60% more spark...

    Cooling ducts to cool underhood?

    I think with the new fuel injection models that the hood scoop's are purely cosmetic. The air being fed into the TB as you know, is through circular plumbing leading to the front of the car. Now how exactly are scoops going to help the engine? I have seen a funnel ram available that gets...
