Hypertech Chip
Yes, the stock chip actually produces more power. I could feel no difference with the Hypertech chip, so I had it dyno'd with and with out it. You see the results. Hypertech would only say without them running the test they could not see why their chip gave less power, and could...
I put in a switch that grounds out the 5 volt side of both solinoids. If you ground out the 12 volt side, the switch gets too hot from all the amps running through there to run the fans. The computer hooks up to the 5 volt side. Then you can turn them on or off whenever you want. If your...
I've got the Borla mufflers. They sound great. But they are expensive. If they weren't on the car when I bought it, I'm sure I would have gotten something else due to the cost. But they just purr at slow speed thru a parking lot.

Mine doesn't fit exactly right. I have to fight with it every time I take it apart., so I sorta know what you are talking about. But it's not off so much that I can't use it. For what it costs it should be a better fit. Sounds like yours is a little more off.
I bought a Dana 36 3.07 complete carrier to replace my 2.59. Should fit right? Well I found my first glitch. The new one is from an 84, and mine is a 92. The spindle support rod bolts on the 92 were 1/2". The 84 has holes for 3/8" bolts. The area around the whole on the 92 is larger also. As I...
Has anyone changed the rear ends? I have the whole carrier setup, cover and all to install. I'm putting in a 3.07 to replace my 2.59. Any difficulties I will run into? Do you have to use the leaf spring compressor or does it just make it easier? Would appreciate any pointers before I start...
I have an AP22. It works great. The times posted are a little higher. I only checked at the track once.

My 86 did the same thing, also my dad's GMC pickup. Dealer told me that the cars run too hot and fry the poor little seals. Got to keep that temperatue down.
Mileage
Took a trip in my 86 from LA to Phoenix years ago, averaged 29 mpg w/2.59. Got 16-17 around town with foot in it. Haven't checked my 92. Didn't buy it for mileage.
If there was a kit or ready made dash for something like this I for one would do it in a heartbeat. A nice looking dash is important because that is what you see the most. Someone at Chevy had their head up their butt when they decided to go with this digital crap. I'll bet someone could sell...
I talked to Ron Z, He wants $275. The thing that surprised me was he said he actually retards the timing 0.5 degree instead of advancing it. He basically adjusts the fuel mixture. He feels that the timimg is pretty much optimized already. Maby he's right, I don't know.
