I drove to Cars and Coffee yesterday. Car was running well and I even gave it a few full throttle pulls from a roll with no issues. While idling in the long line to get in the car suddenly starting running rough then died. It would not restart. I have a hood mounted fuel pressure gauge that is...

I purchased a used Powerlogger from a reputable member of the board, purchase a new TT chip from Eric including the 2.2 Scanmaster chip. I finally got it installed, when I put the key in accessory there's a long green flash from the PL and when I turn the key off there is a short green flash...

I have a brand new, never installed Racetronix FPS-G7255EQ pump/hanger combo. This unit will work on stock lines with no modifications. I purchased it with the intent of avoiding installing upgraded fuel lines but decided to go a different route. Asking $220 + shipping. Sent from my...

I am upgrading my fuel lines but would like to leave my stock lines in place in case I ever want to revert the car back to stock. Are any of you doing this? If so, how are you capping the lines?

After fixing one or two more minor things I am finally starting the quest to start adding power. I have some great ideas and plans on how to do that and while this will never be a racecar I'm curious what the consensus is with contemporary parts and tuning what the horsepower limit is with the...

I’m at a crossroads. I just picked up a wideband O2 and a Powerlogger. I have stock heads and turbo but am about to drop in the Racetronix 255LPH pump with hanger and have been running 60lb injectors. E85 is readily available in my area so I don’t plan on doing alky. Long term I plan on doing a...

For those of you who have done power or ground distribution blocks to clean up wiring for all the after market electronics and gauges in the car I’d love to get ideas and photos of what you’ve done. Where are you pulling power and grounds, sources for the busbars, etc. Under my dash is a mess...

I just wrapped up replacing my timing chain. I am getting oil pressure and it is cranking but not starting. I've done some basic troubleshooting: I am not getting any spark I am getting fuel pressure but it does not appear that the injectors are firing (based upon cranking and dry spark plugs...

I’m specifically looking for the driver’s side but refreshing both would be nice. Mine is a little chewed up and not threading in smoothly. Photo attached to highlight the location and stud I’m looking for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I know this is going way back but I have a Kenne Bell hood mounted fuel pressure gauge that isn’t getting power to the backlight. I want to trace the wire down and see if I can’t fix the problem. It’s surely doable without the manual but if anyone has the factory manual scanned in or has one...

I need to get my timing chain replaced as it's still factory and makes me nervous every time I drive the car now. I've done some reading up and research but since search is broken and the site is a little flaky now and then I thought I would post a new thread. Anything else I should have done...

In the process of chasing down some voltage issues and in the mindset of preventing future odd problems I ordered the Casper Ground Stretcher kit available here: Casper's Ground Strecher Kit The instructions aren't 100% clear at first glance and as far as I can find there aren't any good...

I'm chasing down a strange issue. My alternator had approximately 12.3 volts at the back of the alternator and was not charging the battery. I replaced it with a brand new unit from Kirban's and now am getting about 12.5 volts and still not charging the battery. After the fact I realized that...

I fought for five hours yesterday to replace the valve cover gaskets. What a huge pain! I shimmied and forced them in and out and thought things had gone smoothly but was too tired last night to fire her up. This morning I did and noticed a fuel smell I haven't noticed before and an occasional...

It looks like the original GM part (14060130) for crossover pipe bolts is discontinued. The description is "Bolt,Hexagon W/Torx M10X1.5X40 33.5Thd 10.9,Phosphate Zinc Organic." I've reached out to Fastenal and I'm going to call a few other places which have M10x1.5x40 bolts but they can't...

I am looking for a battery tie down bolt as well as the threaded end that goes into the sheet metal. Mine seems to be missing and for the life of me I can't find a replacement anywhere.

I am converting my a/c and the new accumulators are all silver regardless of brand. I would like it to not stand out and look more factory so I am going back and forth between painting and powder coating it. Obviously, painting would be cheaper but I don't plan on replacing this accumulator for...

Does anyone know of a good radiator shop in Austin? I have a line that was cross threaded by the previous owner and now I have a nice constant oil leak.

I'm looking for a driver's side seatbelt with or without assembly. Mine is discolored and starting to fray. Thanks!
