    December 2006: The Web of Deception

    Five minutes after it happened it did not matter, in point of fact it did not matter while it was in process. People need to take a deep breath. I like the new C6 sure but all this Holy Grail, searchng for the Fountain Of Youth and other such fanaticism is a little over the top. When all is...

    Tripower carbs

    Well I don't want to rub salt into a open wound B-U-T when I made the move to TRIPLE CARB's I stocked up on an extra set of the Diaphrams. In point of fact I think I bought 2 sets as well as a rebuilding set for each carb. These smaller "forgotten" parts are the ones that can stop a project...

    Tripower carbs

    Don't get me started, just don't get me started on "Where does the money come from". I am not sure where it comes from but I KNOW what started the spending and the "My wallet is bigger than yours" so who is gonna chicken out first shootouts at BJ. Toooooooooo much Kool Aid. Last night I...

    Tripower carbs

    Do you want the carb pictures or don't ya???????? As for the numbers: Before I apply the numbers: How can we be sure the car originally came with the left hand muffler bearing option? Do you have the original documentation and papers,? What is the car worth if we sell it without the...

    Everyone thinks they are ProTeam now with their pricing....

    I think they are low RELATIVE to the Muscle cars but..... here is a rambling disertation on the Price Situation While the A-body cars are more numerous than the Vettes they have the same Pinach for the Boomers. A real nice GTO or whatever is almost as cool as a Vette. I think the Vette guys...

    Steering Box rebuild

    Been oujtta town for a couple of days and did not have access to my E-mail as much as I do when workin at Home. I believe Tom Renia is the guy who did my Vette box. The A-Body box was done by Lee Manufacturing in California. http://leepowersteering.com/body_index.html The site is not much to...

    I'm not ignoring you.....

    Same here: every time I think I might have a minute to work on my garage or my cars ......SOMETHING comes up. We are now headed to the THIRD color on the walls of a small bathroom we have. Could have been worse I guess it could have been the master bedroom. ARRRGH. All weekend getting acquainted...

    Steering Box rebuild

    I had mine done by a guy in North Georgia. No issues, prompt and reasonable price. He apparently is a Boutique steering box only repairer. I can dig around and try to find out his address. He lived on Hartwell Lake in Nother Georgia along I-85. Not much more I can recall but if I do some diggin...

    Larry....got any install photos of the Barry Grant 6 shooter yet?

    You can get an air filter made to any height you want by k&N. I don't expect it will be cheap but they will make anything you want. I suspect you would need to send them an existing element so they know the shape.

    If It Don't Fit Or Work...Throw Money At It..

    Well I am glad to hear that VNV got his carb and that it was a successful install. Are you moving ahead with Project Blow or are you on the 3x2 bandwagon now? I saw your note about the condition of your manifold. I meant to send you a note about my manifold. I had a guy recondition it and the...

    If It Don't Fit Or Work...Throw Money At It..

    Yes indeed Darth did respond about the spelling ( another Manhattan Bartender!!!!!!! ). I corrected you and I was STILL wrong on the spelling. As for cutting the spring.. seriously here. I think cutting the spring actually will have the effect of stiffining the spring /retarding the...

    If It Don't Fit Or Work...Throw Money At It..

    Ya know as I read this litany of problems / solutions I am reminded of the old axion...."A bad mechanic blames his tools" perhaps the new axiom is "A bad mechanic blames his parts suppliers". If the new car does not deliver as expected perhaps it is time to get another wrench involved in workin...

    If It Don't Fit Or Work...Throw Money At It..

    New Garage Construction

    Dean thanks for the data. I suspect that Ct. is more expensive than Atl. but I am beginning to believe that it is not tooo much more expensive. BTW. I grew up in Litchfield / Torrington. Have you been to Marcus Diary lately? I miss that on Sat and the Bike day on Sunday. I don't miss the snow...

    hurray My Barry Grant six shooter is finally in

    Well after redoing the 435 setup that is on my 454 I can believe it. The things are EXPENSIVE to redo. Also note I said I had the OVAL Port which is rarer than the Rectangle Port. Who EVER would have figured things would get that crazy. I think I paid about $1500 for the Oval port. Empty..no...
