    Question: Has anyone used 9006-80W and 9005-100W bulbs in their cars?

    Has anyone used 9006-80W and 9005-100W bulbs in their cars? I have couple of sets of these bulbs and I would like to install them in my stock headlight but I'm concerned about melting the housing, wires or damaging something else. I could go HID but if these will work I would rather go with these.

    I've just bought the new Vararam VR-2B intake on e-bay. Bought it on impulse but now I'm having second thoughts about the purchase.

    High Watt bulbs.

    I found a new inexpensive source for buying aftermarket high watt bulbs. The 900680 are 80 watt and 900510 are 100 watt. These are considerably brighter than stock. I'm concerned about any problems associated with using them. I've seen them on several on line stores for what I call crazy money...

    Throttle body heater bypass on 99 LS1.

    I'm interested on installing a bypass on my vert. I was wondering if it would be OK to run a straight hose from the metal tube by the intake to the radiator. This would eliminate any splicing and chance of failure in the future. Wonder if anyone has done that and how it is working for you. Also...

    Oil catch can - which one realy works?

    I have purchased an oil catch can off the eBay and I'm very disappointed. The design is totally useless in separating oil vapors. The only thing I can see it doing is cooling and condensing the vapor when the engine is turned off and it has time to cool. I'm talking about the vapor which when...

    Plugs & Wires - which are best?

    It's time to give my 99 a little tune up, she's been idling a little ruff. I will be changing plugs and wires but I'm not sure which are better. There are so many choices in plugs and wires I'm not sure what is hype and what really works good. I would hate to spend a lot of cash and time on...

    Best oil at 80k.

    My 99 vert just rolled over 80k and its time to change the oil. The manual recomends Mobil 1 5/30 which is the same oil I used when the car was new and engine was tight, Now with some weare I'm sure most tolerances have loosened up and I'm curious if the same oil is still the best for the motor...

    06 Z06, how much$?

    I'm looking at a 2006 Z06 black coupe, 6 speed with 5k on the meter. Just wondering if $76k is not to much for it. I think I can have it for $75k out the door but that still seams bit to much for me. What do you guys and galls think a fair price should be?

If I go from 6 to 4 (eaven partly into 4) then it will shift to 5 with no ploblem...
