    Squeak - possibly the speedo cable?

    I have a squeak in my front end that varies with speed. I could have sworn it was the left front wheel. I replaced the front wheel bearings. Honestly, the old ones didn't look bad at all, but I had already bought the new ones, and they weren't expensive enough to warrant making a trip back...

    Virginia Emissions - 78 no cat converter

    Hello again - it's been a long time since I've visited CAC. Nice to see some of the familiar names are still hanging around. Buying a Harley, getting married, and transitioning from the Marine Corps into a civilian role has kept me pretty busy the past year! Now that I am off active duty, I...

    Keisler 5 speed - which OD gear to buy?

    I'm looking for input from the folks who have made the Keisler 5 speed swap. I'm buying my Vette a Keisler 5 speed for Christmas (shhh, don't tell - it's a secret). But which gear ratio should I go with? Current engine is the L-82 (220hp) and I'm planning/saving for a ZZ-4 (350ish hp) in a...

    Mods for a tall guy

    I have a friend who is 6'6" and has always loved sharks. Now that I have one, his interest is renewed, but he still doesn't fit in them. He is guessing he would need to gain 3 inches to the rear and sit 3 inches lower (even with the extra room that glass tops give over solid ones). Has...

    Metallic chatter/squeak from rear wheel

    Here's my problem: I hear a metallic chatter/squeak from my right rear wheel during acceleration that has been occuring more frequently over the past couple of days. The oscillation of the squeak seems to match tire RPM's (something downstream from the differential), and the sound stops when I...

    buy air car or non air car?

    I am a Marine deployed right now and am looking to buy a 68-74 when I get home. I want air - should I hold out and buy a car that already has air, or should I buy a non air car if I find one that has the other options I want and install an aftermarket air system? So the question is, how easy...
