    DocRebuild's 1974 OOSOEZ Wiring Guides

    Does anybody know of another company that sells color wiring diagrams. I'm not the greatest at reading schematics and these seem so simple to follow. I've tried to purchase these twice now. The company refuses to sell it to me because I don't have a stock engine. On the first cancelation...

    High Speed Setting on Heater

    Is the blower relay located right new to the blower motor/ac? There is a small box there with 3 connectors on it. Two of the connectos are attached, but the thrid one isn't. The connector that isn't attached would be the one facing the drivers side of the car. The other two face the...

    High Speed Setting on Heater

    I just bought the schematic. When I go to the link for the harness, it says I may need the Distributor to Coil and Lead Wires. What are these? I changed my ignition from points to HEI. Will I still need these wires? Can I use the one's I already have if they are in good shape? Thanks

    Radiator Overflow

    Thanks. I think I will go with that. I'm guessing that's about the cheapest I'll find one that includes the cap and hoses.

    Radiator Overflow

    is this the correct tank? It says it is, but there are three lines. I'm guessing one to the radiator, one in the tank to suck out liquid, but what's the third? An overflow for the tank? 73-77 Corvette Radiator Coolant Recovery Reservoir Tank, Cap, Hoses | eBay

    Radiator Overflow

    Hi, When I bought my corvette somebody had replaced the stock radiator with an aftermarket. They deleted the overflow tank. The problem is when I turn the car off the coolant expands and pours out the overflow. I was wondering if anyone knows how to connect a new overflow tank. I've seen a...

    High Speed Setting on Heater

    sorry. I meant under the drivers side. It's been a long day at work. lol. You said an alarm horn? I don't think my vehicle has a car alarm. Would this also be just the regular horn?

    High Speed Setting on Heater

    So the horn, amperage gauge and high speed blower is all connected to the horn circuit. I think I may know what the problem is. The horn is rusted apart under my back passenger fender. I was told this is why my amp gauge doesn't work. I guess it senses voltage by the horn and the battery...

    High Speed Setting on Heater

    Well I moved some wires so high speed works now I think. Must be a short. However there are 4 setting on my control switch. Far left appears to be low. Second setting is the same speed as far left. Then medium, high off. Is this correct? I thought far left was off and far right was off.

    Question: Full Length vs short headers

    I've found a lot of information on the forum about brands of headers that people recommend, however, I can't seem to find if full length headers will fit under the car. Is there enough clearance for full length or should I look for shortie headers? I've determined I definitely want a pair...

    High Speed Setting on Heater

    Thanks. I'll check that when I get home. I wish I hadn't bought the new resistor now. :) oh well. I might as well put a new one in since I have it anyway. Will the red hot wire go all the way from the blower motor, through the firewall and connect to the high speed on the motor speed...

    Steps to build a chevy 350

    I've been looking for an L82 so I can get my car back to matching numbers. Are these motors any better for building than the 76 LM1 350 from a camaro?

    High Speed Setting on Heater

    I know there are a lot of discussions about the heaters on here, but I can't seem to find any detailed steps to take to test what has failed in my car. I just bought a blower motor resistor. I'm not sure if that's what's wrong but I thought it may be a good start. The blower works in off...

    Steps to build a chevy 350

    Found a fairly well priced crate engine from Jegs. It has 260 HP 350 ft/lbs of torque for only $1400. That doesn't seem bad at all. And it's low compression. 8.5:1 I could supercharge it later on down the road if I decide to. Let me know what you think. GM Performance 10067353 GM...

    Steps to build a chevy 350

    wow. Just started reading up on turbocharging a carbureted engine. It sounds like there are a whole lot of modifications to the carb and fuel system. I'll probably stay away from that. Just curious. Could you use the snorkle off a supercharge for a turbo?

    Steps to build a chevy 350

    That is a thought. I never really thought about selling my motor to get cash for a better one. Do you think I could actually get $1200 out of it though? I've actually been wanting to put a 383 into my car. I figured I'd just buy the heads, intake, carb, ect for now and then have the internal...

    Steps to build a chevy 350

    I wasn't trying to make it sound like they didn't know what they were talking about. I switched over from building rice burners to a corvette. I'm pretty new to this. haha. On my rice burners I'd add a few bolt on parts remapp a few fuel curves and timing on the ecu and gain 100 hp for dirt...

    Steps to build a chevy 350

    That's over 2 thousand dollars. 310 hp is a good amount, but not that much. I had 2 grand in the motor of my turbocharged laser and it was pushing around 275 hp. I'm sure for that money I could get more bang for the buck building an engine. When I was asking what engine you'd recommend, I...
