Now that Obama elevated the current N1H1 Flu to a "National Emergency" is this thing for real? Just curious to hear what everyone things. I personally thing that this thing is all Hype. I'm not any more worried about N1H1 than I am about getting a head cold. 400 people die from it and it is a...

This last weekend I took my stock G80 Gov-Loc unit out of my '98 Silverado. The unit was failing to lock-up. I assumed that the springs had failed and I pulled it out. I swaped it out with an Eaton LS Carrier... I could not be happier with the swap. But upon further inspection the stock unit...

I just wanted to announce my return to the forum. Sorry to all of those who sent me PM's. I have been in the process of a career change and neglected my account for the past year. Looking forward to getting back on here, and back to working on my Elco.

I'm shopping around for exhaust on my '98 Silverado. I want replace everything from the headers back. Its a daily driver and I don't want to deal with headers. Any personal preferences on brand/style?

I finally got it finished up. I went with a Fex-A-Lite Fan. I bought a new radiator while I was at it. My transmission cooler ripped the core on my old one. I made a couple of brackets for it this time instead of using those push pins. Let me know what you guys think.

[/img] A couple shots of my garage. Getting the elco ready for winter. It wont be long now before the snow hits. Just thought I'd share!

I really want to replace my interior. I'd like to go from my stock dark blue to black. Were are the best places to buy carpet kits and door panels? Do they make every interior piece through aftermarket companies or will I have to die any of my existing stuff?

The other night I watched the movie Enemy of the State made in (1998). I like the use of Gene Hackman's '86 Chevy El Camino SS in the chase scene towards the end of the movie. I esp. liked the part where they exit the garage! The movie also includes an '83 Cutlass Supreme and an '86 Pontiac...

I want to remove my stock fan set up and run an electric fan. I need to find out how much CFM I need. I'm also going to remove the stock fan shroud, does anyone know what type of brackets they make for the upper radiator supports?

I know this is a little off topic but yesterday I was wheeling with my '89 Ford Ranger and I blew apart a front locking hub. It was a new Warn Steel hub I have only had them on there for about a month, and this was my first time out. It blew up the outside of the case. Is this anything anyone...

What is the most rediculous comment anyone has ever said to you about your GBody? I know I've had a few stupid comments: About a year ago I was at a Saturn Dealership picking up parts for my girlfriend's car. A couple of the techs were outside having a smoke and one asked me if my '85 El...

[/url] My buddy took this picture on his way home today! It just cracked me up! Another funny thing is that it wasn't bad out, the roads were clear! :lol: Hope you enjoy!

Whats the best way to hook up an aftermarket transmission cooler. I intalled a Flex-a-lite cooler on my car and ran the line from the trans to the air/water cooler in the radiator first and then into the air/air aftermarket cooler before going back to the trans. I've heard that is the best and...

I finally got around to taking some more shots of the motor. My most recent addition the Serp. Belt conversion. [/img][/list]

Latley I've noticed how slow the response time is on the site. I think some advertisement could go a long way! Who here would be intested in in a GBodyForum.com sticker on their car? I could look into having some of them made up. I just need to see what the feedback is like.

Heres a clip of my Elco warming the tires in the water box at Pacific Raceways. It was at the All Highschool Drags, sadly there were few muscle cars there. It was a big crowd pleaser. Hope you enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeGo4jS0-wg&eurl=

I was just wondering how many of the users were from the NW? I live in Auburn, WA and I've noticed that their are a bunch of mid-west and east cost people. Just wondering if anyone is in my neck of the woods. Let me know

Does anyone know when GM stopped offering 5.7L 350's factory in G-Body El Caminos? I've always thought that '82 and up only had a 305 option, with out the 350 avaliable. Do the earlier body style '78-'81 have 350 in them?

I currently have a B&M Holeshot converter. Its advertised to stall between 2000-2500 and I dont feel like I'm getting my moneys worth out of it. I have hotter cam and carb, how high of a stall should I go with? I'd like something thats mostly street with some track use. Gas mileage isn't an...
