    muffler eliminators

    If you have all three of your cats on the car I do not see how running muffler eliminators would make it to loud. I have them on my car without cats and at idle it sounds very nice, but at WOT it is almost to loud.

    Question: Need suggestion on what to do next

    If your doing the shocks I'd go with Bilsteins. ;)

    86 vette, lopes at idle

    First thing I would do is check the code. See what that is, and it might help you find your problem.

    Question: Which Engine?

    I agree with the above posts of rebuilding your TPI. Definitely take some time. I think Lingenfelter has some books dealing with rebuilding our TPI's. And from speaking from experience with rebuilds (mine and my brothers) do not go the cheap way with either parts OR the garage or person doing...

    Plenum Removal - '90 Vette

    I did not remove the runners either when I pulled my plenum. I found the hardest thing to do was the vacuum line to the brake booster.

    Opinion: OEM Stereo or Not

    I put a CD player in mine, and have had minimal problems with the stock speakers. With the dash kit installed it is not an eye sore like many other cars with after market head units.

    Plenum Removal - '90 Vette

    I did a quick search and found this thread http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/forums/c4-technical-performance/60249-doing-some-porting-soon.html I am not sure if it is the one you originally seen, but it does list the bolt sizes. I have had my plenum off and it is an easy procedure to do.

    I just changed out my factory installed battery.

    I just replaced mine in my Vette this year. I've had it 5 years this summer, and It wasn't "new" when I bought it.

    1987 headers

    TPIS for the headers. They are a little expensive, but everybody says they are the best fitting headers around and I had very minimal problems installing them on my car. As far as the rest of the exhaust there are many systems. I am sure somebody will post in that has one.

    Blower Motor does not work

    Yeah I agree I had problems with my 99 Alero twice. First time it was the motor. Second time it was the motor AND the resistor pack. Good luck. Did you look to see if there are any fuses?

    Help! Aux Fan Not Working

    I had a chip burned with a moates adapter, but I have been having problems with that so I went back to my Hypertech that I bought years ago. As far as my mods descreened MAF, TB coolant bypass, I bumped my timing up to 12 degrees advanced, Ported plenum, and minor porting on the intake...

    Help! Aux Fan Not Working

    I changed my Tstat to a 160, and have my fans set on at 180 off at 165, and with bolt ons and free mods I ran 13.9@101mph. with a 2.3 60 foot. So I am not sure if you actually see a gain in performance or not. No disrespect to all the others that definitely know more then I do, I just hated to...

    Help! Aux Fan Not Working

    To my knowledge the small aux fan does NOT turn on while the main cooling fan is on. I don't think it turns on until higher temps then 240. My 87 has never seen temps high enough for it to come on, since I have changed the temps my main cooling fan comes on. Hope this helps. My 87 FSM is...

    1990 corvette runs rough

    Not to be mean but go back and double check or even triple check the wires. While doing my headers my brother and I got two wires crossed and the car ran terrible.

    Help

    Just as an update I threw my ECM off mine into Craig's car and his ran fine. So I would imagine the ECM is good.

    Help

    The car will not run unless the throttle is constantly stabbed. I originally thought it was an ignition component,(plug wire possibly), however after a complete tune up no change. Craig has been burning me tunes and we looked to that next. We threw an old hypertech mem-cal in, and no change. I...

    MSD distributor cap

    I was thinking of just doing that too. I was going to do that the other night, but I didn't have any screws to use anyways.

    MSD distributor cap

    Anybody have this on there car? I ordered one and the setup looks different. The cap that I had put on the car previously had screws that actually screwed into the distributor. The MSD one they sent me has is called clamp down? and I have the screw down. I doubt there is any way to make this...

    Vortex Rammer

    I like it for the fact of the big visual improvement over the stock filter housing.

    Fog Lights

    One of my fog lights in my Alero burned out and was going to replace both of them. I want to go something brighter then just the standard bulbs. Anybody have any recommendations?
