    87 OCTANE VS 93 OCTANE

    Not true... the higher the octane, the slower the fuel burns... the slower the fuel burns... the more idle you need to maintain the same RPM.

    Ls1 into an 86 vette

    Why not?!? LS1 motor is bullet proof in stock form and makes so much power with just some headers.

    OK, now i'm baffled - high RPM miss???

    This may be something you've already done... but make sure those new plug wires are routed correctly. If they are touching anything like a ground source, you will arc and break up at higher RPM.

    headlight adjustment

    Jeff, The adjustment can only be reached from the top. You have to pop your hood and look infront of the hood as it is up... down in between the headlamp and the hood. I can walk you through it if you want... PM me your phone #. Dave

    fiberglass t-top adjustment

    headlight adjustment

    Jeff, It's not part of the assembly... its a tab bolt sticking out behind the mechanism. You should be able to see it if you hold the unit half way open. It should have a black plastic pad on it, but that could also be long gone. There's a nut on the back side you will need to loosen...

    headlight adjustment

    Yes, there is a stop you can adjust... impossible to describe... but if you mannually feel around as you rotate the assembly you will find it.

    REAR SWAY BAR

    My 74 BB came with the above as well... and I also switched to VBP 7/8" with Poly bushings. If you have the opportunity, upgrade front and back... what a difference!!!

    You got to see this supravettearossa

    The only thing Vette about that thing is the rear clip. Looks like an old 300ZX conversion to me.

    Master Cyl Seeping!

    No matter what I do the brake line coming out of the front reservoir of my new master continues to seep fluid ever so slightly. I kept tightening it little by little, but It won't budge any further. Not sure what to do at this point... any ideas? Thanks, Dave

    Repair or Replace

    From the pictures you have, it looks like you can remedy with a new fender grafted in and a new bumper cover.

    Bench Bleeding new Master Cylinder Help

    You know the two studs that come out of your booster that you bolt the master to? Yeah, well some tardo doesn't know how to weld those studs in straight, so every booster I got had the studs angled in towards each other. I could not get the master over the studs without destroying the threads...
