    First time wagon owner intro

    I think like one of the guys posted if you seal the top edge of the A/C Box with a nice clean silicon bead, you might fix the problem and all will be done. I really think you could get the top half off pretty easy and it will not break. just take your times, reseal with Silicon. Some times the...

    First time wagon owner intro

    First awesome wagon. Second I believe the Tach is for a V6 which is why it is reading wrong. V6 typically are 6,000 tachs, while V8 are 8,000 tach readings. There is not adjustment, it would need to be converted to V8. Connect http://www.speedometerplus.com/repair they can get you Tach...

    New Wagon From WA

    Welcome, Great looking wagon. Like your idea of a 5.3LS swap, you cant go wrong with that, 4L60E transmission and get the great overdrive option. if you need help, check out my comments about modifing your transmission so you can run the factory speedo and new computer for the 4L60E.

    Purchased an LS1 & have a few questions!

    Brother check out my other post. this is correct fix and you can run your factory speedometer. I have installed the 4L60E and I am using the factory speedometer and still use the correct VSS for my transmission. You just need to modify your transmission as I have posted here several times. Check it out...

    Purchased an LS1 & have a few questions!

    I think for the money, to pay someone to convert your speedo to VVS it would be cheaper to modify the tail shaft. I know of a speedo shop in CA. Contact http://www.speedometerplus.com/ They do alot of mechanical speedo, maybe they could make a VVS speedo like factory.
