I used dual spal 12" fans needed something thin and powerful due to limited space. These fans were on the pricey side. Temps in 100* weather plateau around 185* when stopped. When moving temps are 175* fans are off at anything below 180*. I have a 160* thermostat, fans are rated at 1451 CFM and...

Heres mine 5.3 swapped, wish I had a clip of the old sbc 305 with the vintage hooker mufflers sounded even better back then

I been using e85 for about a year now and love it. I just added a flex fuel sensor and set it up on the Holley. I have a weekend toy, 5.3 turbo LS on low boost. I tuned it myself so the added octane and cooling effects have saved my ass a few times. I have major fuel slosh if I go under 1/2 tank...

I had a similar problem the kit came with only one new bracket that spins the star adjuster. I reused the old one on then other side since they adjusted fine before. One side kept getting a lot hotter then the other, checking with temp gun and could smell/feel it. Replaced the bracket that spins...

180* oil/coolant for hard acceleration and towing.

Yes it did have fluid I remember it coming out when I loosened the bolt on the fresh paint lol. Thanks I'll do an inspection for corrosion and pitting.

I wound up ordering new wheel bearings inner and outer and seals, brake lines and wheel cylinders for the back. I figured why not replace it all lol. Got a question for you I removed both calipers to paint. Once out caliper 'L' pushed in by hand with some force. The 'R' caliper I had to use a...

Slowly replacing old components as I get extra cash. Bought the power stop front disc and rear drum kit. Wondering what else I should replace/upgrade while I have the brakes apart? Any special tools needed?

My tires measure about 11" wide. I went ahead and picked up another trans off a 99 suburban awhile back just in case. I'm just gonna swap it out when I get tired of this tiny miniscule leak or it stops functioning. But hoping to get another 1-2 years out of it.

I just went and measured my 'carb stud dent' its a lil over 1" towards passenger side on 71 Camaro

Cammed 5.3 to a TH350 I was messing with the speedo wheel and noticed the fluid was glittery at around 200 miles builder advised changing fluid so I did. Looked the same as the pictures above. Pics are from 400 miles later I have added a turbo 3-5PSI and was trying to get rid of leak passenger...

Thank you, this 10 minute job is turning into two weekends lol!

I did the helicoil it was a pain doing it upside down but i got er done!! Anyone know the torque spec to the rear shock top bolts

Thanks for the reply! I may attempt a couple dabs of weld and drill and retap!

Hello I was replacing the rear shocks on my 71 Camaro and stripped one of the nuts on the top mount. Anyone know a good fix?

I bought an 18 ft kit was not long enough to run up to the battery tray and back to the starter. So ordered more wire waiting on it to come in.

Yes would be super simple with DBW just limit the pedal to like 50% lol. Takes awhile to learn but, I been playing with a lopey idle tune and a smooth idle tune.

I went with a terminal fuse that goes directly on the battery positive. How did you guys connect the 14AWG fusable link that goes into the rad support junction block?

This is with ls3 WP and Stock style rad. Gates 21837 upper(cut for best fit) Gates 20734 lower I have heard Dayco 70649 will fit lower, and may provide more room for turbo. I will test when I add the turbo. I can only verify the top two though.

My plan is to do the passenger side trunk and run it inside the car under the carpet all the way on the passenger side. Maybe do a bulkhead through the firewall and go to the starter then to the alternator. Then I gotta sort the 14AWG fusable link wire to power the harness, maybe I can replace...
