Having problems with my speakers cutting out randomly, all four at the same time, only when the car is running. My subs keep playing while the others act funny. The weird thing it doesn't happen consistently. For instance, yesterday the system worked fine in the ACC position, but once I started...

Had my rear end rebuilt. Moser axles and a Detroit TruTrac were among parts installed. Upon driving, I noticed a clunking sound going over bumps and occasionally when making turns. Took it back to the shop where they noticed what they think is excessive slop in the differential gears. They could...

Long story short, my current rims are tweaked. I need new rims pretty quick without spending a lot of dough. I have 15x7 with a 235/60/15 tire all around. I would like 8" in back, and would also like to be able to rotate my tires. Jeg's currently has some blemished Cragars for $49/piece...15x8...

I'm sure a lot of you know, but for those who don't...I just found out today. I bought a set of their gears thinking that I was supporting an American made product. Get them from UPS today, box has Made in USA printed on it, but I open it up and a Made in India sticker is staring right at me. I...

I've weighed my options and upgrading the 7.5 is going to happen. Please don't reply with comments saying I should get a 9" because I just signed a hefty student loan and with new brakes it's not in my budget. I have a 385 stroker with a th400, no idea of the hp/torque output (engine or at the...

I'm not an audio expert. From googleing this i've read that as long as the subs are identical and are powered by a single amp in mono it shouldn't matter. I've also read that w/out a divider, it might affect the driver of the subs and cause premature failure. The reason I ask is because I have a...

So...I've had subs hooked up with the original 307, no problem. I've had someone else swap in a 350. Went to hook my subs back up today and here's what happend... Hooked up everything like it was before. I have a negative battery terminal disconect with a 15amp fuse so I won't lose radio...

What does the electrical gadget inside this trim piece control?

Getting ready to upgrade to braided hoses and start using 2 filters. I have read that using a 100 micron before the pump and at least a 40 micron before the carb is the norm. I currently have a 35 bronze element filter between my mechanical pump and carb. Said filter has the hose fittings, so...

Got an '85 Monte SS remanufactured fast ratio steering box for my '85 Cutlass (800 series, 4 bolt top). Thought they were a direct swap out on any Gbody, but I've been reading conflicting info that the hole sizes are different in the pitman arm on different models. The part# on my pitman arm is...

Wondering if I should go with Chip or just get a reman quick ratio steering gear box at O'reily's...any suggestions? Price difference is about $100 more plus shipping to send it to Chip. http://www.powersteering.com/products.htm Edit- I told myself to save some money and went to O'reily's. The...

Purchased one of his refurbed jeep steering shafts...excellent product, professional packaging job and super fast shipping!!

So I didn't thoroughly read the details on their website on how this crossmember fits short tails and I have a long version (looks to be 9"). However, I thought the mount locations on all TH400's were the same? Anyone have a longtail mounted to a G-force?

Anyone here ever run into this problem with a cutlass? Have read/heard that some people with gbodies experience one side hitting the floor. It fits, just touches when it shouldn't. One blog stated that the problem didn't arise until new Energy body bushings were installed. Also, is there any...

I need to search some junkyards and come up with another crossmember for the TH400 in my '85 Cutlass. I know some Monte SS's and '78 Regals had them. What else should I crawl under??

Put in some new headers, the transmission lines now run along side the collector and block the starter from being installed. A search resulted in reading about using rubber hose for a short distance to connect the lines to an external cooler. Will rubber (even with ss braiding) be sufficient for...

Took out my gauge console to put in a tach. When I put it back in, the shift indicator moves fine when shifting into gear but the spring won't pull it back any further than neutral. If I tap the linkage it'll eventually return to P. The spring had plenty of tension when the console was out. I...

I've narrowed my gasket choice to either Remflex or Mr. Gasket Ultra seal...or possibly Earl's True or False, Ultra Seals can be trimmed to match ports without damaging the gasket. On Remflex...I've seen ratings at 50/50. People rate them as POS/Awesome. For those with experience using them...

Converting to dual exhaust with a Pype x-over and dumps before the axle. Welding is not an option at the moment and I don't really want to drill into my floor. fyi...the header to muffler kit DOES NOT come with the 1ft extention pipe and only includes 2 clamps.

...without a lift? I've seen 2x4s across jackstands and this, But they make me feel uneasy because I would need something like a dozen 2x4s
