IT turns out I really *DID* blow all four headlights at once
I posted RFI's nearly simultaneously at two 'vette sites, and CAC responded with the most detail, so I'll put the original here first.
The wiring and switch are intact...after pulling and testing all four headlights, I really *did*...
After a series of alternator malfunctions on my highly modified - I only have the "no headlight option" still eneabled. I pulled the breaker on the panel and got a new one, only to find out "Acc" means "Power Windows".
When my dysfunctional alternator hit 19V the other day it popped the...
Wow. It's been awhile since I was here much - but I started getting my beastie going in November to December, in what's been a $7-8K three season most-of-car repair or upgrade, instead of a $1750 month long install-the-new-motor project.
One of the many things new to this edition of Burnham's...
How about the window mech/motor, passenger side?
I'd consider the whole door, possibly, but think my mech is a little bent up and the motor is definitely cooked (again!)
This silly project thingy will have it's motor w/i the month, so I could kinda use the window to, like, move and stuff... :)...
*WOW! Do *NOT*, repeat *NOT* hit the spell check and agree to the download of the IE spell checker if you are working on a post! You lose the thing you are trying to spell check doing it! (This is a rewrite...)*
I need a replacement column for my modified '75. I would be happy with the shorter...
Hey again!
While I am getting replies to my wheel request..... :)
Planning on doing the tires/wheels, have the top put on I've waited forever until I scared myself silly I'd screw it up...:), swapping out a few of my digital gauge-o-rama so everything that isn't multicolored is red (& swap...
Hey all
I know this has been covered a billion times (not even sure if it shouldn't be on C3 Reg. Forum):
I finally re-engine my puppy this weekend and have the funds now to finish this project to a good medium stage - so, with the new OD and motor, I need better tires and the wheels to...
Sorry for the superdelayed reply....
Computer (and financial) problems went nuclear for most of the month....well, at least the computer is patched up now!
1)Yeah, the new fuel pump rod is bronze, but the old one was a lightened Moroso number that should never have harmed a cast iron (or...
Much, much worse than hoped for....
Sorry it took so long to get back - computer on fritz for a while (still sortof is)...
Engine was trashed. Two spun main bearings, two rods....bores nuked
Took it to the machine shop recommended by my vette shop - which oddly turned out to be the same...
Sorry to hear that guy....I had really good service
out of the ultracheapy GoodWrench engine....unlike this POS I have now that we still haven't found the problem of.... The next few steps up one you're looking at seems to be a very good deal.
If that thing of yours is down already.....and...
There is some "stock" thing....I didn't have it....
I used about 5 feet or so (really not sure) of some 2" header wrap I had laying around, some aluminum tape (just for positioning), some aluminum "flashing" (the construction thin al sheet), and a fist full of zip ties (hose clamps or those...
Not sure, except I found one sorta dangling....over
under the passenger side near the heater works....have no idea if this was as it was supposed to be or not.
There usually are two flashers. Another place to look is deep up under the passenger or center (do you have 2 or 3?) rear...
You simply cannot imagine how much I HATE
you sidepiped bastiddz!!!! :drool: :BOW :_rock
I almost wish my current pipes didn't work so well....
$770? Really??? How much can the STS's be had for?
(This coming from a guy with a disassyed engine, maxed CC's, a ripped top and "Paint...
Mine came with a monoleaf that was too soft...
then I put on a heavier metal. One spring hanger broke, wrecking that,a nd I put on the whole dual mount rear monoleaf thing from VBP. I like it on the second to harshest (I drive on a lot of bad roads.)
Remember only with the fiberspring you...
Welcome aboard! Never too young to get into real cars!
That's not that great a price for a pretty standard vette. Pretty much any recent (last 5-10 years) factory crate motor (the classic "GoodWrench Target Motor") developed more power than the L82 of that year (another 350.) These were...
Not specifically.....after losing a wheel, I always worry about rear bearings....
but that doesn't sound right here.
If you can see something visually misaligned, then $60 at the alignment shop is called for right off. While it's up on the rack if you've never changed the fluid, do so with...
John that's EXCELLENT!!! Snap-On's is like a BILL-YUN BUX!!!
I was going to get one when I was playing with silicone fluid.....then I was going to get one when I just wanted to bleed it myself more frequently....
....now I'd like one set up for some other higher BP stuff like the Wilwood...
I posted on your CF question - but w/ shroud or not
the e-fans use a DIFFERENT shroud. Since e-fans are mounted as close as possible to the radiator surface, if you use a shroud with one, it's of a considerably different (and more friendly) design than the original. The SPAL/DeWitts one has...
