    Can't get Camino to crank

    Check any and all grounds and both cables at battery even if im stating the obvious. Something thats made me look dumb a few times with auto and city electrical is getting voltage readings that look ok to find out theres not enough amperage to operate sh*t. Example would be 0 gauge cable with...

    Aftermarket Sway Bar Selection

    I think the straight splined end bars with adjustable links is theoretically a top choice. also think that for street use a little stronger bar with not so stiff a front spring rate is the direction to go for ride quality vs roll resistance.; such as if fronts on airride . thats what i think...

    Window motor and regulator track

    Sorry im not a track /parts years expert, But some common sense to me things could help here.. If you look at the typical home garage door system for example. there is some sort of counterbalancing spring system taylored to the weight of the door. Otherwise any lift motor wouldn't work at all...

    Forgot to mention on small engine carbs, pilot jet clogging is main cause of issues. never took apart 160 honda carb yet to be familiar with though. Possibly might have a limiter cap on the pilot adjustment screw you could remove

    Getting back to my dirtbike chopper drift trike project, which will eventually ride in the el camino under my bedcover with a custom lift mechanism. Started out as a lowered dirtbike with go kart axle attached to swingarm. It felt very controlled this way, could do 360's in my double driveway...

    Headers

    I've mentioned that pass side frame rail mod that rabbithole showed on this site before, couldn't find it in my pics last nite. I think it's a good mod to do to any g-body for any headers when engine is out. Started making my own headers years ago from used Kooks Nascar LS series headers. True...

    Headers

    That sucks that holley quit making theirs. I'm not up to date on what's available these days, but some of the speed engineering batches were said to be pretty decent. Before there were much of any g-body LS headers, guys used to take 98 to 02 f body headers & do a few mods to make them fit. May...

LUK was /is the main oem manufacturer of clutch/flywheel parts, would trust their info...

    RIP Gary Rossington

    I live here in Jacksonville. fl. Definitely not a compliment to me at age 53 last year, but more than once last year or so eating out on the westside of town wearing a Skynard appropriate hat & shirt, I think middle-aged women have mistaken me for him. Cool though, I liked the surprised look on...

    jeff beck passing @78

    Jeff Beck was kinda like the predecessor to later artists like Steve Via. Not made for airplay commercial sounding whatsoever, but could bend strings unlike anyone else.
