    Head Gasket Failure

    Probably not the fault of the gasket. Lots of people running 9441's don't have problems. The tune-up probably tells more about what happened then anything. Lots of people in here going on about the surface finish.... Not saying that is not "the right way" to do it. But there's...

    Aluminum Performance Transmission Mount Adaptors

    Drove the car last night. Didn't notice any difference under normal driving conditions. I can feel a little more vibration when I'm beating the piss out of it though, which is fine.

    Aluminum Performance Transmission Mount Adaptors

    Well it fits in there pretty good. I don't have a lift so it was a bit of a pain to install. but generally speaking I'm pleased with it. I have some more, if anyone wants one they can DM me. Again; this lets you use generic TH350/TH400/700R4 trans mounts. and unlike the other ones out...

    Aluminum Performance Transmission Mount Adaptors

    Hello, I felt like the existing aftermarket transmission mounts were overpriced and some purposefully omitted information. I designed and ordered these to allow for use of a standard Poly TH350/TH400/700R4 trans mount. They are anodized black and include threaded(M10x1.5) holes for the...

    gbodyparts avoid at all costs

    I have used G-body parts for years. I think that they have definitely fumbled some of their customer service cases. Working in the customer service industry, I keep in mind that mistakes happen, its how you react to them that matters. There have been examples here where Gbody parts...

    I'm talking engine oil pan. I don't like the deep sump options because they become the lowest point on the car.

    Aluminum Oil Pan Options.

    Hello Folks, Are there any options out there for aluminum oil pans? I'm investigating making them myself. I would like to retain the same depth, but add wings to increase capacity to that of a deep sump. Also improved baffling, depending on interest. Stock LC2 is the 20 bolt pan if I...

    Read if you dare… Big Boost on pump gas

    I work in the industrial electrical industry and am mostly off the tools already at 23 years of age. A lot of this industry is networking and using nepotism to your advantage, and it is likely the same for the automotive industry.

    To anyone that has removed a tranny in garage

    Typically its a fairly miserable 2 hours or so. Getting it out is pretty easy. getting it back in is a pain. I use a motorcycle jack but its a really cheaply made one and the jack goes a little sideways so I have to make sure its facing in a direction that will help the trans go in instead of...

    Engine shutting off after 10 seconds

    if it does there will be a rubber plug/teat looking thing on the body of the gauge. Upgrading to the LT1 or LS1 MAF and MAF translator will make a big difference in the cars performance by the way.
