    New tires for 16" rim

    Just looked at the pricing for the 245/45R16s and they must be uncommon. Most are around $200 ea vs $100 for the 255/50R16...

    New tires for 16" rim

    Are people running with 245/45R16 in the front? I have 255/50R16 in the back and they're fine. Tirerack has a Ricken 245/50 for $120 so I might just try it. The rubbing is really not too bad unless I really turn it all the way. I've been living with it for twenty years :-)

    New tires for 16" rim

    Tirerack seems to have several different type of 245/50R16s in stock but I'de rather not get them again if the 225/50R16s will work. I think they will fit but I don't often hear of people using that size. The 245/50R16s only rub when turned all the way but over time it does wear them down a bit...

    New tires for 16" rim

    I'm looking for new tires and thinking about downsizing mine from 245/50R16's because they have always rubbed a bit on the frame and the wheel well when turned to the extreme. It's not a track car. Has anyone put smaller tires on the front like 225/50R16's? Thanks.

    Mounting LT1 MAF and maintaining stock appearance.

    That looks great. I tried that but the plastic tube from the air cleaner is about .5" too small for the LT1 MAF diameter. I guess I could try to widen it (if that's what you did in that picture).

    Mounting LT1 MAF and maintaining stock appearance.

    When replacing the stock MAF with the LT1, the LT1 doesn't have the mounting bolts like the factory MAF did. Is anyone using the LT1 MAF with the translator while maintaining a stock appearance? There was a link to a post about stuffing the MAF in the airbox, but the link doesn't work anymore...

    Does LS1 MAF + Translator require new ROM for mostly stock?

    Right I understand that I don't have to change the stock ROM, but was wondering if I can burn a new ROM to take advantage of the higher precision. Similar to how we can change the fan temp turnon and TCC lockup speed, I was wondering if there are any instructions about how to modify the "stock"...

    Does LS1 MAF + Translator require new ROM for mostly stock?

    Thanks. I was wondering if there was a resource online that detailed what changes in the ROM are necessary to use the full 768 gr/sec from the translator instead of the stock 255gr/sec, since I can just burn a new ROM myself.

    Does LS1 MAF + Translator require new ROM for mostly stock?

    It looks like my stock MAF finally died so I am going to buy the LS1+translator. For a mostly stock GN, is it necessary to change the ROM, or will it work with the existing chip? I have seen some comments about using it with performance chips. Also, I do have a ROM programmer and can burn...

    Spool Fool Bumper Fillers

    Did my front and rears and they fit great, and look great. I'm not even going to bother painting them. Mike was great vendor to deal with, and helped me with some weird issue I had with the front fillers, owing to some body work that I had done years early. I highly recommend them. Thanks again...

    Power door distribution wire location from 30A fuse

    Thanks. I stopped by GM but they just looked at me like I had two heads so I'll wind up making a cable. The block has 3 rails, which are all separate. Does the other side of the BAT connector that plugs into the C453 block have 3 terminals or is is just connected to the single rail that the...

    Power door distribution wire location from 30A fuse

    Thanks! I don't think I would have figured this out without your help. That was the BLK/ORNG wire I was looking for. For some reason that wire is missing -- I'm not sure it was ever there recently. Whoever did the alarm seems to have spliced into the orange/black wire, so maybe it was getting...

    Power door distribution wire location from 30A fuse

    Thanks Dave. Yeah the problem I have is with the PWR/ACCY coming from the 30A and not the fuse that triggers the relay - the relay clicks when I hit the switches. Any idea what powers C453? I originally plugged the orange/black into that , however my block doesn't seem to have any power. I...

    Power door distribution wire location from 30A fuse

    Hi, I was taking apart the alarm system and accidentally seem to have disconnected the power for the power locks. According to the diagram there should be a Black/Orange wire someplace under the drivers side that plugs into the Orange/Black wire that leads to the relay on the passenger side. I...
