I have connected my brown 12 volt wire to the f/i terminal on the regulator. This is apparently how the 91 camaros are. The f/i terminal has built in resistance between it and the l terminal (about 350 ohms). sent from the future using a flux capacitor

I believe the wire going to the stud on the alternator is for voltage sensing. i'm more interested in the brown wire and how it needs to be. the brown wire is the one that needs to be connected correctly to make the cs series alternators run. I no longer have an idiot light since I converted my...

Hey all. I have searched and read as much as I can find about doing this swap. Last year I converted to fuel injection, electric fans and serpentine belt. I originally used the brown alternator wire until one day it stopped charging. After checking the wire, I found it no longer had 12 volts to...

i will definitely be getting some photos up soon. thanks.

hi all, new user from connecticut. i have a stock '85 monte that i have converted into an ss of sorts. just the usual stuff, ss rear, 4 speed auto, tpi 350. its been my baby for the past decade or so. i even rebuilt it after a major accident because i like it so much. i'm hoping to get some cool...

when i converted mine, i had to buy the filler piece between the reinforcement and cover, the air box, and make some brackets to bolt the cover to the fenders. i also bought a reinforcement but when i compared it to the stock one there wasn't really any difference between them. i also removed...

i could do the drive to danbury. i'm only in willimantic(other side of hartford).

i have some for a monte i had years ago with the vinyl top. do you have narrow trim or the wide trim like the cutlass. mine are for the narrow trim. not sure what the gp's used. if you have a picture i could tell you.

the port on the back is manifold vacuum. thats what i'm hooked to.

actually my carbs both have one of the little tube shaped ports which are just off-center but located next to the booster fitting. these are both the larger sized q-jets(either 795 or 800 cfm). maybe others don't have these ports. all the carbs i have got 'em. also i misspelled "monte". i feel...

i understand the difference between ported and manifold. i was wondering if there was a performance benefit or something to connecting it one way or the other. i guess what i want to know is why one person will tell you one thing and the next person you talk to will tell you something else.

i have heard different things from different people(maybe it's just a matter of preference), but is there any kind of reasoning to where you connect your vacuum advance? some people go manifold, some ported. does one work better than the other? makes the engine run better? my mote and my truck...

i'm up in willimantic, on the eastern side of the state.

just measure across the rim from bead to bead.

85 and earlier monte ss's had those wheels in 15 inch. i've got books that show pictures. 86 was the first year for the alloy monte ss wheels.

gm soldered alot of their connections. all of their splices are soldered, as are some pins in exterior connectors(i think the headlight connectors). but as megaladon6 says, it helps if you can properly solder. otherwise you could cause more problems than its worth.

gm ran the choke wire through the oil pressure switch on top of the motor(thats where it is for chevy, not sure about BOP). this switch is used for the idiot light but also for the sole purpose of controlling the choke on gauge equipped cars. they did this so in case you leave the key on but not...

go to www.superbrightleds.com. make sure you type the "s" at the end of "leds" or you will end up on the wrong site. their prices are cheaper than anything you will find on ebay and they have all types of bulbs in all kinds of colors. the elctrical engineer at work told me about themi'm running...

hey all, i was searching the net for g-body stuff and ran across this site. i own an 85 monte carlo. i partly converted it to an ss( nose and spoiler). this is my second monte and third body(i'll explain that later). besides the nose and spoiler, i built a solid 350 motor, gave it an 86 luxury...
