    Am i asking for trouble putting a 265/50/15 on an 8 inch wheel? (REAR ONLY)

    If you're trying to stay within a specific range for your speedometer why not just change the gear in the transmission for the speedo and run a rear tire that won't look so funky? That tire is going to look goofy back there.

    Trans cooler lines leak at radiator

    Are you using the right fitting? Is it a pipe thread or straight thread?

    Cooling Fans

    I bought it a little over a month ago for $48. Still have my receipt. Must have jumped in price since then.

    Cooling Fans

    Summit. I used the radiator probe setup but adapted it with compression fittings to fit in a threaded plug.

    Cooling Fans

    It's great. Has a digital read out of temp and has a little button on it to set turn on temp. Can't beat it for the price. I used compression style fittings to fit the temp probe into a fitting for the cylinder head instead of pushing it through the radiator.

    Cooling Fans

    I'm using a Derale setup that came with the shroud. And for the controller I'm using a $45 Davies-Craig relay setup. Best relay setup I've come across and super cheap compared to most. They're an Australian company mostly dealing with boats. I went through 3 different controllers from bigger...

    crying uncle. starter noise.

    Flex plate on the right way? Sounds dumb but I've seen it. Adding a shim shouldn't make the difference between too much engagement and none at all.

    EFI, Pump in Tank or Inline?

    That still shows a 5/16 inlet. I guess it doesn't matter I can and probably will use AN fittings to match my fuel lines anyway. The conversation here just got me wondering about that for a bit.

    EFI, Pump in Tank or Inline?

    Not to hijack the thread, but where do people find sending units with 3/8 lines instead of 5/16?

    EFI, Pump in Tank or Inline?

    I have an inline pump in my EFI setup. I regret not going in tank honestly and it's on the agenda for this winter. GN tank and an Aeromotive Phantom pump is what im switching to.

    Last Concert + Next Concert

    Static-X, Devildriver, and Dope in July. Then KoRn and Alice In Chains 2 weeks ago. Next is Black Label Society in October and hopefully I can catch Static-X and Devildriver again when they come back around in November.

    Fuel tank venting

    Sounds hokie but I used a small open element valve cover looking breather for my vent. I put it on the vent line from the sending unit with a few inches of hose so it's not slammed against the trunk floor. Works great for me. I have seen people drill a small hole in the gas cap before as well...

    New to GBodyforum - 1985 Monte Carlo SS on Air

    Welcome aboard! Sweet ride. I'd love to do some air ride shenanigans with mine!

    OK so I have acquired a 1983 Malibu wagon with 75 K original miles no rust AZ car.

    I could think of 100 better "best bets" than a freaking Nissan engine. A best bet would probably either be the classic small block Chevy or an LS swap. That would be way cheaper, easier to fit and make work than a j* engine.

    MORE accolades for Mike's Montes

    Been buying from him for a while. Mostly little things. Never had an issue. Definitely need more like him around.

    Feeling discouraged

    I didn't see any bad rust. I didn't even see any rust scale. I would hit it with a wire wheel and paint it with a good satin black paint. Then forget about it.

    Locking Fuel Filler Door/Rear License Plate Bracket Upgrade

    On the Camaro it's not the fuel door, just the license plate mount. It folds down to expose the trunk lid lock. Once folded down, it stays down unlike the G-body license plate bracket that springs back up. And yes it's a bolt on upgrade, shoulda been that way from the factory but it's GM....
