    Cutlass front spoiler options

    Squarebody S10 spoiler($12 at LKQ) just clamped on fenders and balanced on bumper for width check. A little too narrow for my tastes, so I got another and will try to split, rejoin and make one wider. Would like end angles to match fender angles.

    What Did You Do To Your G-Body Today? [2020]

    I'm not too good on the "today" thing, but I thought I would fess up to what I've done this YEAR since June is almost over. 1) Replaced stereo, added rear speakers with BOSS products- its okay 2) While I had interior half apart I removed and reglued the previously replaced headliner material...

    I like Nova's but this one made me laugh.

    Some people have no business owning cars. Should stick with the three wheeled bicycles with zero mods.

    Joke of the day

    Looks cool but, soooo many questions in my head right now. Really? You did this yourself? In one day? How many F-ing pennys do you have? You are going to grout it, right? In quarantine I assume? Wow, just wow. I'm impressed regardless.

    Tremec TR3650 in a g body

    I'm curious, any updates on this project? Clutch setup? Shifter/shifting ease? Headers/exhaust issues?

    Kore3 C5 Front and Rear question

    http://www.kore3.com/tech.php#fitment_templates. Scroll down to templates. You might have to scale your printout to make it right, there's a ruler on the side. Transfer to cardstock/poster board and check fit on the inside of your wheel. Also, if you order from them you get a pdf with multiple...

    Kore3 C5 Front and Rear question

    I assume you know there is a template you can download from KORE3 to confirm caliper clearance inside your wheels? My 12.8” kit cleared 17” wheels, but I had to remove stick on wheel weights from their previous location. They barely scraped the calipers, and they can be moved a bit on the rim...

    2020 Hot Rod Power Tour

    CPR for this thread. COVID-19 has assed up another aspect of my life. Still planning on doing the Long Haul. Got all my lodgings updated and Wifey is still ready to go. August dates might weed out some with no A/C and/or school age kids, but might allow some others to wrap up prep work. I'm...

    SBC mechanical fuel pumps

    I'm pretty sure the fuel pump on the 305 in my Cutlass is the original, still running a Q-jet. Heading out on Power Tour (in August) so I'm considering changing it or at least taking a spare. I've looked through previous posts and diagrams of fuel pumps, and now have some questions. Carter lists...

    Spraying penetrate on body mount bolts

    The one I had to cut out had a bump about 1" diameter x 1/4" tall right over the cage nut. It was pretty obvious it was over the body mount.

    Spraying penetrate on body mount bolts

    I'm with Cdunigan on this one. I don't understand how spraying with penetrant does anything unless the bushing is gone enough that you can get the nozzle up to nut/bolt or access from the top side. I am in the process of changing my bushings right now. All bolts came out looking good except...

    I have a '84 Toronado steering wheel, wondering if the Cutlass center/emblem is the same size (2-7/8") and if anyone has one for sale?
