**** me off. about two years ago my started pooped, so i replaced it. then about 4 months later it wouldn't mesh with the flex plate, so i replaced it again. later i had issues again and ended up having a shop replace the flex plate and starter. this was in feb. now after 8 months of...

http://carcraft.com/upcomingevents/116_0508_rse/ make sure you vote for the '80 Vette I'd love to see a late shark can do

daily driving with dynomax ceramic coated headers. why do does the driver side header look so crappy? They have been on for a year now, and I thought the cermamic was suppose to hold up will? is the coating crap, or did i run the enigne to hot, or is there something else that you can tell by...

After 2.5 years of Vette ownership and 1 flat tire, I finally found the jack and lug wrench hidden UNDER the plastic tray behind the passneger seat. I never could figure out how you were suppose to store the jack in the tray:L

find that damn ticking sound. Not sure if its a rocker or maybe an exaust leak. I just hoping its not a piston slapping a valve. and even worse, figure out why my passenger door all of a sudden decided that it doesn't want to open from either inside or out. :ugh I've got an extra set of...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7942596460&category=63690 i'm not the seller nor know the person. i just remember somebody looking for one.

:confused I'm thinking that would be a sweet mod to do after all the others are done.:L

Long painful couple of months. My stock shifter cable on my 81 auto snapped. Replaced with a napa unit, 2 weeks later, the shaft at the top crumples, replace with anouther napa unit, and 4 weeks later (today) it crumples as well. I'm gonna call zip tommorrow and ask about the cable they sell...

You probally have seen the arguement a number of times. Are sharks invisible to radar. My conclusion is that they are less likely to be picked up on radar then most cars. This pic was taken this AM. Notice, that there is no speed read out. I did see several other cars set it off, including...

How difficult, and how long would it take to put these goodies on?

:D What a difference. The engine revs up so much faster (23%) and smoother. Unfortually, its break in time, so I have to take it easy, but I like it so far. I did stomp it once from a stop in my parking lot at home, and it easily left some rubber on a slight incline, where as before, it...

Anyone have an idea? Is there any demand for them? I've never seen one on ebay. Anyone know the supplier? Would it be a dana set since its a dana diff? :confused

My advice is to take care of yours. :cry My rear gear swap/ujoint replacement turned into gear, ujoint, side yoke, carrier, spindle support (shop busted trying to remove shock mount), strut rod replacement. Today is day 15 and tommorrow there is a 50/50 chance it will be done. With...

Went to leave for work this AM and the transmission shift cable snapped. There isn't a single replacement in town for it, but NAPA should have a new one for me tommrrow, so instead of dropping it off first thing in the AM for new rear gearing, I'll be installing a new cable. I sure hope the...

OK everyone. This may sound a little crazy, but my friend and i have thought up this idea that we could use an electric leaf blower as a turbo. We have it worked out pretty well but there are a lot of potential problems. Would the leaf blower blow too much air into the engine, or not enough...

So what gear would you choose and why. I mostly use the car to drive back and forth to work (about 2 miles) and the rest is spent dinking around town with a few trips home. I'd say the non work driving is about half highway and half city. The choices are 3.31, 3.54 and 3.73 Right now I think...

Its a stock 81 rear end. I know the gears are a 2.87, and I believe it to be a dana 44 that can hold up to a 3.54 gear. Correct me if i'm wrong. The shop i'm talking to is ****ing me off, acting if i don't know anything about cars. I don't believe it will be going there.

I'm gonna be getting new spicer u-joint in the next week or so. Teh shop is gonna take a look at tommorrow to see anything else should be done. I think that the seals on the pumpkin should probally get changed, as driver side leaks pretty good. So my question is, what is the tallest gear i...

I ordered a set of header gaskets for round ports, but summit sent me one's for square ports. Can i use them or should i send em back???? Also, there are 6 thin gaskets, do i use 3 on each side, or 2 or 1, or does it depend?

Which are better, teh stage 8 locking bolts or the bolts with the allen head in the middle.
