I have a 00 LS1, so far it only has bolt on modifications (LS6 intake, headers etc) I picked up from a local shop a perfect condition 02 LS6 cam and a set of 01 LS6 heads. I know that the 01 LS6 heads dont have the lighter valves but are they the same length as the 02+ LS6 valves. Also, the...

Has anyone ever used this particular pump. It is GM part #17801830. All I ever see people talk about is the LS6 pump or a melling but this one is advertised as a high volume standard pressure pump for the LS engine. They are all over the internet for like 80 bucks shipped which is considerably...

My wife has decided that the B&B bullets are just too loud for her. Id like to either trade for something a little quieter or even a stock z06 ti system or sell them out right for 500 plus shipping. They are 3 months old with maybe 1000 miles on them. It is the dual tip system.

long story short, pothole hidden by water puddle plus wet road equals busted fender. I can get a new one relatively cheap and have it painted or try to hold out for a used black one to swap right in. Any idea on the estimated cost to replace paint a fender?

Will someone point me to a good how to on rebuilding the parking brake. I found a few out there but the pictures suck and reference parts that are not identified in the pictures. Thanks,

Up until now I have always hung out in the C3 section trying to keep this one on the road. Today I brought this one home to add to the headache:D The hard part is going to be seeing how long I go before I start doing anything to it.

I am looking for a good place to take the car to here around the Melboure FL area. My new job doesnt allow a lot of time to do anything so I can wrench or I can drive. Id rather drive. Looking for someplace that I can just drop it off and go pick it up when ready and enjoy it rather than...

I am looking for a tach for a 75-76. Im buying a DUI distributor and the price difference between non tach drive and tach drive distributors is outrageous.

I am debating with myself over sidepipes. I am either going to get a set of stainless for my 454 from the Superpowers guy that is selling the XS power brand (proven to fit perfectly) or a set of sterling ceramic coated from jet hot. I got an email from jet hot today saying that hooker has...

So my R&R is over and in a day or so I have to go back to S Korea. There is nothing that makes you realize how much you like the States and miss your family than living in a 3rd world country for a year. Aside from a speedo cable that decided to break (easy fix at least) the new engine in...

does the tranny care of the speedo cable is unhooked. I have the two piece cable version in my 72. The lower section internal cable kinked up and snapped in half. Will it mess up the drive gear in the tranny if I drive the car without that square rod inserted into the hole for the speedo...

9 months ago I left the states for a tour in S Korea. My 72 was in the shop getting a new crate motor. Family picked it up and took it to the garage once it was finished. Its been sitting there ever since. Today I am back in the states on leave and the wife made me promise I would spend the...

I am looking for an early christmas present to myself. I was thinking new wheels would be great. I dont like the look of the huge 17 inch wheels on the old cars so definitely staying with a 15. everyone has a torq thrust variant. I am really starting to like the look of the ansen sprint...

I have been posting lately about doing a head swap and having a shop tighten them down so much it destroyed a valve. I ended up deciding to just go ahead and buy a crate motor because I didnt want to deal with the possible damages. Turns out the heads are in a lot better shape than even the...

has anyone ever been to this race. when i get back from korea i will be stationed in tampa florida 90 miles from the sebring raceway so i was thinking about trying to catch the race. is it worth the 90 bucks for the 4 day ticket.

I took this off of my 454 to replace it with the LS6 version. It is in great condition with no cracks or breaks. All it needs is to be cleaned up and repainted. The exhaust crossover has been filled in with plaster of paris. If you are wanting to convert your spreadbore to a square bore and...

went to the shop today to check on my engine swap. old motor is out. messed up heads are off. the #5 intake valve is definitely bent but with a new valve guide and valve it should be usable. while it is apart they are going to reseal my transmission, replace my upper and lower control arm...

for reasons i dont want to get into, i am replacing my entire gen iv 454 with a crate engine. spec sheet says it is coming with the comp cams xr276hr. hydrolic roller and moly rings. do i need to do anything special for break in like with a flat tappet or can i fill it up with standard SL...
