    Power Steering High Pressure Tube 86/87

    I need the metal tubing section that attaches to the discharge of the power steering pump. The one with several right-angle bends, and threaded fittings on each end. It is number "3" in the drawing on page 6-68 in the parts catalog, and is part number 7849856. GM no longer stocks this part.:(

    Keep Right!

    Just noticed on the tech board a couple of folks complaining about those slow pokes who plug up the left lane or lanes. I agree, 1000%! They not only slow up traffic, they keep the traffic from moving at a steady pace. So, even if they were doing a "good" thing,making us slow down and save...

    Rear Bumper Fillers

    Who is making good rear bumper fillers these days? Mine are collapsing, and ugly, and way overdue to be replaced. But I've read that the GM parts are no longer available, and that some of the aftermarket parts don't fit. So where to find the best fillers, at the best price? Do I have to pull...

    Plastic Tire Chains.

    Years ago, I had some things like tire chains, but there was no metal involved. There were cleats that ran across the tire, and they were made out of hard rubber, or plastic. (It was yellow, not sure what the actual material was) They had straps to hold them onto the wheel, sort of like tire...

    Brembo rotors, include bearing races..

    Had new Brembo rotors delivered earlier this week, and when I started to put the wheel bearings into them, there are already bearing races pressed into the rotors, both inner and outer. Is this normal? Should I use them, or remove them and use the races that came with the SKF bearings? It sure...

    Classic Industries GTA Wheels..

    Weeks ago I ordered a set of four front GTA wheels from Classic Industries. 16X8, with zero offset. A week or so after I placed the order, I got an e-mail that said they were back-ordered. Well, I need new tires, but I don't want to buy a set of 15" tires if my 16" wheels will EVER arrive...

    Throttle Cable Bracket

    This should be easy. The stock bracket that holds the throttle cable and the TV cable is not adjustable at the throttle cable attachment. This means that when the throttle cable stretches, you may lose "full open", and it's hard to fix. (Yeah, you can put washers under the end of the cable...

    Why is emissions chip needed?

    My car passes the NC tailpipe test every year, because I put in the stock chip, and turn down the fuel pressure. My street chip is a Thrasher, with the open loop idle, don't think it would pass. But it seems to me that a performance street chip SHOULD pass emissions testing. Why can't I have...

    Cotton's Performance.. No Catalog?

    I've tried for a week or two to get through to the online catalog at Cotton's Performance. The "Shop" button just won't work. The other buttons do what they are supposed to do, but nothing happens when I click on the "Shop" button. I sent Jack an e-mail, but got no answer. Anybody else...
