    A few winter Jobs

    Also remember that the original alu 81 diff only came with a 2.87 ratio. The 3.08 you have are an aftermarket set already and the question is what quality or previous life did they have. Greetings Peter

    Help! 69 Overheating - Big Block

    When looking at Hib's things. At idle or slow speed: 1 and 4 make no difference if the is no or slow airflow. The fan clutch is a good idea and the auw fan right way even better. If would also say. When replacing the clutch fan and putting in a aux fan. Is it pushing or pulling more of the same...

    Electric Cooling Fan Direction

    I would say. At the front of the radiator it should push it through the radiator. So if looking at the front of the car if the upper fanblade is at the right closer to the radiator and further from the radiator at the left then the fan should turn toward the passengers side. So pushing the air...

    HEI Distributor recommendations for 1982 5.7 Crossfire

    In the past I found one other brand that sells HP HEI distributor. Problem is with the ECM control there isn't to much around. If your other engineparts are stock then just keep it stock i would say. Greetings Peter Verstuurd vanaf mijn GT-I9195 met Tapatalk

    Original L81 engine pic's..

    I see it's already 1.5 years ago since I last updated this topic. Well there is not much to say about the vette. It's still in the same spot and I didn't loosen a nut or bolt. On the other hand I bought an average '63 Pontiac Catalina in light blue still original except for the Grand Prix grill...

    Troubleshooting possible fuel pump failure

    Sorry no thoughts. Ones I was busy trying to fit a 86 caprice ECM into my 81 corvette (same carb) with a zz4 prom but it still it in a corner somewhere. If it's a simple swap you can always try. But before swapping out the ECM first take a look at the coil and other things. I think it's much...

    Troubleshooting possible fuel pump failure

    As the ECM controls the spark lets start with that. As you have fuel and i think enough air the only thing you're missing is a timed spark. Greetings Peter Verstuurd vanaf mijn GT-I9195 met Tapatalk

    Troubleshooting possible fuel pump failure

    Maybe the fuel filter. When you have the filter out of the line look if fuel is comming out if you turn the ignition key. And put something under the fuel line so fuel isn't all over the floor. :) Greetings Peter Verstuurd vanaf mijn GT-I9195 met Tapatalk

    Time to address the transmission...

    Sounds great to me! Did you always run the 2K converter or are you changing into it right now? I think with the lockup the 700R4 has it will be a great combo, High stall but still low in mileage because of the lockup in 4th gear!? On the one hand weird to hear it's becomming difficult to find...

    Pre-Mixed Antifreeze

    I think they only sell premixed overhere so yes most of the times I have a 3 gallon can (10L) in the garage next to the engine and transmission oil. As winter and spring tend to have a few days or weeks below zero we never put just water into the system. Greetings Peter

    Finally Found The Battery Drain

    I would say check it my measuring it! It could be the antenna is the mean problem but who says it's the only problem? On mine the gps alarm drains the battery at a contant rate even more then the entire alarm itself. Measuring how much amps go to the different fuses gives you the best insight...
