Hello everybody, This is the problem. I have all new vacuumlines something like 6 years old. All the rest is OEM with new rubber seals. I checked everything last year when I had a vacuumleak. Relays were oke, vacuumcan had a little hole, closed that and the drivers side actuator had a bad seal...

Hello Everybody, I'll also post this project overhere because most forummember aren't following my '81 project in the L81 section. Well as we all know the OEM headlight system is preforming under average so something began boiling in my mind to change it. This was back in '07 or '08. At that...

As a "longtime" member is see that the c3 sections are almost deserted for some time but now in 2014 I don't see any improvement. Last reply in technical over a week ago! So what is the problem and what is everybody doing? Not that i have a solution but i don't believe everybody is addicted to...

Hello everybody, As I already have alot going on in my '81 "resto" topic I decided to take the 400ci build part out of it and put it in this seperate topic. That way it wouldn't be one big mess and easier for me to update. So first the info I took out of my topic: For some time I was...

Well this is a long one! I just rebuild my E4ME almost to the letter put it on the motor and warmed everything up. After that removed the aircleaner and tried to get the dwell as close to 30 as I could but there is the problem. I also have my dual A/F meter in the exhaust and the A/F meter has...

Hello everybody, Maybe somebody had something similar before. The problem is when I brake hard I can hear a controlled rattle noise coming somewhere from the left front. When I'm just tapping the brake because I'm in traffic I don't hear it. The rattle doesn't begin when I start braking but...

Hello everybody. The problem is that me speedo isn't working anymore. What happend is that I changed the diff ratio so I needed another driven gear to correct the speedo. Inside the 700R4 is a 17 tooth drive gear, I went from a 36 driven gear to a 43 driven gear (with other housing). First my...

Hello everybody, As I recently bought a nice Dart 400ci SHP block I'm looking for a better intake then the stock L81 has (it's already aluminium but don't know the CFM) to build a nice engine. As I want to keep the stock Q-jet and airfilter (same for the hood) the options are very limited. In...

Hello eveybody, I need some advice on this one. I want to let a company shot peen my differential and everything in it. I already have it apart. All the internal parts are new from Tom's. I begun polishing the carrier but a friend said shot peening was a better option. The housing from my 81 is...

Hello everybody, I find it to be awfully quiet overhere the last few months so I'm hoping everybody is still checking in so now and then. But on to the question. I know there aren't much alternatives for the stock intake and the few that are there aren't that much of an improvement. With the...

Hello everybody, I want to upgrade my C3 Dana 44, one of the problems is that the stock carrier has a fault in it with the clutchplates. The C4 Dana 44HD carrier doesn't have this problem anymore and it's a direct fit into the old model. Somebody who rebuilds them told me that I could find a...

Hello everybody, Hopefully somebody overhere knows this sound as I have an idea but don't know for sure. The sound started very faint and in the background but it becomes stronger over time. I only hear it when the engine is cold and after 5 minutes it fades away. I hear it very clearly from...

Hello everybody, Most of the times I have an idea well before I have the money to put it in to action. But my idea is to better plan for somebody that you don't need in the end then to take action without a plan. So, a good friend of mine build his first 350ci stroker. All nice and good and I...
