You shouldn't boil over at 220 degrees. Have you checked your radiator cap.

Do you have part numbers for the air cleaners and the covers that looks hot.

I havent had any difficulty with my AFS rims. They look good balanced out well. I think the biggest problem with any rim is when you abuse it with curbs and when you dont torque your rims properly. Getting a rim thats forged wont address that

Inferior quality really, Hmm Well what is the net effect on that? I'm not sure, I guess I can understand it being an issue on a vehicle that is 10000 lbs but do the loads on these wheels really justify the forging process? Or does casting provide the required strength? I don't know

I picked up a set of new ZR1 replica wheels for about $500 delivered from AFS wheels (EBAY) and they look really good

This stupid cable is driving me nuts. It constantly comes off the right side then it starts rattling. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get the loop to stay put on the bracket?

Yea they charged an additional. 50 for shipping and the core was 200 but they said they would refund it as soon as they got the old top back. that cost another 50 for shipping so the total cost was 550 with all the shipping. But what a difference. I looked on ebay for a top for quite a while...

Does anyone know anything about how the cable is retained on the e-brake for an 84. It has that goofy rotor/drum combination thing. I'm sure there must be a retainer on the cable but I dont have one and I dont even know what they look like.

I just got my new top from astro tops. Boy that thing is nice. Fit right up and at $450 bucks the right price.

I still think it was probably the tensioner. The reason I think this is because if the tesnioner wheel is not just right it will exert a point load on one side of the belt and will cause it to pull to one side or the other. You can try an experiment with the wheel by purchasing a new one at a...

Nut drivers, a beer, an evening and lots and lots of patience. I have removed mine and performed maintenance on them and as long as I didn't get in a hurry it wasn't too bad. The nut are accesible from the bottom rear of the car but they are buried. It is blind and tight but doable. The...

I replaced the worm gear in mine two weeks ago for the same problem. It only took me about an hour.

The are only a couple of reasons for one of these belts to come apart like you are describing. 1) (most likely) One pulley is just a little misaligned any of the accesories could provide this opportunity for failure. The most likely cuplrit would be the tensioner pulley and its bracket since...

noise When this happens are you getting noise out of the assembly like the gear is stripped or is it quiet like the motor is not turning?

Hi everyone, I am looking for new seat covers. Where can I find good pricing on new seat covers for my 84 (vinyl would be fine I just need to get these covered before the foam goes bad. Second question the cable for my E-brake keeps falling off the right wheel. Is there a retainer that I am...

I can understand the reluctance to use Autozone parts but they have this rack for $137 with a lifetime warranty and you can get it right away.

It's not as bad as some would make you think. The years you are talking about have a special transmission but I have looked into it and ALL TRANSMISSIONS ARE EXPENSIVE. The motor is a 350 how do parts for motors get any more common? Yes some of the very unique stuff can get expensive but most...

ordered it Thanks, I just called and ordered it from them

I broke the rack that drives my passenger winow up and down this weekend. Anyone got any suggestions on where to get a new one and how much?

I love mine I've had mine for just over a year now and I love that darn thing. I Love dang near everything about it. Even the Crossfire injection (gives it character). I drive it pretty much daily and have had almost no problems with it. The only thing was the valve guide seals but I fixed...
