had to replace the bushings on my strut rods. I bougth these about 7 years ago from Mid America. I cannot find the installation instructions and need to torque the bolts that go thru the top (thru the bracket on the diff case), not the shock mount end. Any help would be appreciated

..and thanks for the nice comments.....it's a labor of love

Sorry--was out on business..to access the albums, click on my profile.

Special thanks to Lars and Sensei who helped me tackle one of two things I have not done before.....rebuild and tune my E4ME, the other is to completly service my sharks a/c system. Waiting arrive of the manifold gauges and vaccum pump. I hope these pictures will be useful to fellow 81er's. I...

Got both off ebay...yippe!!!

I installed this system without any issues.....of course have a 700R4 not the THC 350, but still should work

Please PM if you are willing to help a fellow 81 vette owner out......

Can someone point me in the right direction on what I need? Will assume I can get on ebay or hopefully a local parts store

Thanks for the info.

Many years ago it appears that my vette was involved in a crash (did not own the car when this happened, so no idea when it did). To repair , they installed a "used door" from another 81. My vette numbers match all around except the VIN plate on the door. Is there anyway to order the correct...

have this posted in the C3 Technical/Performance, makes more sense to post it in the 81 Forum.:) Which aftermarket EFI is best Helo fellow vetters, I did a quick search and found some "old data" about this topic. I ask the question as it appears the technolgy is changing every year. My...

Helo fellow vetters, I did a quick search and found some "old data" about this topic. I ask the question as it appears the technolgy is changing every year. My car is a 1981, with modifications to the engine (internal), mild upgrade to the cam, increased the Compression ration to 9.3.1...

I am leaning towards the nordskog, I like the price and the design as compared to Dakota.

Looking for a winter project and have decided to explore converting my 81 to a digital dash. I know Dakato and nordskogperformance have bolt in products. Would like some feedback..pro's and con's on this adventure

I like it I have the same color, both inside and out, except I have modified my vette to include a 700R4 overdrive (Fourth Gear), 3.55 rear-end gears, beefed up the engine (kept as much stock as possible). Your vette looks brand new, was it recently painted....very nice ride, let me know if...

I am running 3.55 rear gears attached to a 700R4. I am very happy with the setup. Shifts into OD around 48 and running around 1700 rpm at that speed. I did have some setup issues, but did work thru all of them...hell that is what is fun about having a classic

Adjustment on the Primary metering jets was successful. No more back firing, dramatic increase in performance......now on to the secondary rods..thanks GerryLP and Sensi....

Just not quite right. I have posted previously the work I have done on my 81. Because, I am never really satisfied a trait must of us vette owners possess (in a good way), I would like to get some feedback on the following. I have reviewed past post on this information and did not see or maybe...

response Sure...did get the car out for two test runs....I am very happy with the performance of the tranny and engine...... Step 1: Loosen slider and center on the bracket. (Lock down) Step 2: have carb at WOT....pull cable until you get a positive stop. Tighten TV cable nut (or what ever...

Update What I should of done was contact the transmission builder (Fourthgear) at the beginning, :bash...........would of saved me allot of time Don Marcone (Fourthgear: I highly recommend), talked me thru the "proper" setup of the TV cable of which I have done......weather is to crappie to...
