Yes that helps a lot, thanks.

I need a bigger wheel and wider tire, leaning towards 17" rims. I like the original look and Yearone makes 17" replicas but not sure if they will fit and price appears to be double what you can get other 17" rims for. Option#1 is they Year One Staggered set 17x8 +0 offset in the front and 17x9...

Thank you very much

Just checking to see if anyone has answer before I have to start pulling stuff apart (again) to count. Anyone know the spline count on a 1987 Olds 442 that came with the 8.5 rear and 3:73 gears? Thanks

This has thread lubrication stuff had been explained to you correctly multiple times in multiple ways. This thread needs to die or be locked.

Specs listed are dry specs, as I posted in my first response, thats the point. To assume other wise is incorrect.

Your talking about the information listed in the large 1000+ page service manuals, Yes?? Which is referring to the exact same bolts GM used to build your car with. The specs in there are for the "GM Genuine" parts you would or could have bought over the counter 30 years ago, the same ones your...

Where do you think GM gets the fasteners from ... the fastener industry, I know this because I've sold to the Oshawa, Ontario GM plant. They are very specific about what they want and what the specs are. Like 99% of the worlds industries you can not supply a product to them stating specs that...

http://www.montecarloss.com/VIN.html ... looking at that chart and your VIN, I can see why your looking for help. You able to match that "serial" on the invoice to the VIN on the dash?? According to that chart they where all 305's none where 350's.

I've used 3M's adhesive remover before and Goo Gone with success, but heard good things about the product below too. Its never a "one shot deal" takes a few tries and heat help's. Info: Aircraft Decal & Adhesive Remover (KLE EAD908) removes both decals and adhesives with just one product. Is...

ok thanks guys, confirms what I been reading online. Just had not seen any gbody posts or issues with the cable before.

Ok yesterday I started getting a really odd noise from what sounds like the gauge cluster. The sounds kinda sounds like scratching, really heard to explain, but it dose "go faster" as the car moves faster and its not RPM related. I'm thinking Odometer or speedo but both are working fine. Any...
