    BUILD THREAD The never ending 383

    MY Isky flat tappet cam has a set of the Comp Roller rockers waiting on an intake upgrade to be installed. The Isky Roller Cam that I have on the books will get the same Comp part number. I have the polylocks but no girdle. This is a road motor, not for street work so the cams themselves are...

    That rubber seal is attached to a mounting flange made from sheet metal and it is made with a one way lip. if you try to push the pipe down back into the house you may tear or otherwise damage that seal, particularly since it has been out in the elements and exposed to the sun for around 25...

    So despite the official genuine GM wiring harness diagram for my G-10 insisting to all and sundy that the power wire from the key to the coil was Pink????!!!!, the wire itself begged to differ; it thinks that it is BROWN! and one of my high intensity work lights put onto the subject confirmed...

    Iron, huh? You are definitely going to need that pipe cracker that I mentioned above. Maybe check out Home Depot or Menards to see if they rent 'em. As for the toilet circuit, I think that you are going to find that your planning department is going to want a "P" or water trap put into the...

    Question here. Below that flange, when you get into the DWV pipe, is there some kind of "P" or "S" trap in the circuit? Typically such an item was installed when the original rough ins were done as a way to create a water barrier. Trapping or retaining water in a curve of the pipe created an...

    On my S-10 the ABS control box is located in line with the various brake circuits meaning that the brake fluid does have to cycle through it to get to the calipers or slave cylinders. One of my to do items this spring is to replace that control box as they apparently can corrode internally...

    What did you buy for your Gbody today? (2025)

    This is more a case of not what I bought but what finally arrived. So it turns out that the insulation panels are actually the same part number no matter which door shell they get mounted on. The invoice and the catalogue show a left and right designation but the number for each...

    So today's plan was to post the pictures of the harness that I made for the ground wire on the relay to permit a toggle kill switch to be added; only my computer is in a snit about my camera and doesn't want to accept picture uploads. The issue is with an MS update that totally buggered the...

    What did you do to your non g-body project today [2025 edition]

    Not a bad thought either way. I do plan to tap into the lead from the key switch to the HEI coil pak for continuous power and that half of the wiring is about ready to lay in but the ground lead from the relay has yet to find a home so it is open to being extended and having a toggle switch...

    What did you do to your non g-body project today [2025 edition]

    Fair question, so, summarily, relays are a kind of electrical switch but instead of the toggle for off/on being mechanical, it is electrical. Internally there are two circuits that interact. The first is a heavy circuit that is normally open or off. The second is lighter; and it is a trigger...

    I had sort of wondered what happened to Ghost but not to where I am more than tepid about them re-appearing again. Meh. Nick

    What did you do to your non g-body project today [2025 edition]

    Finally had an epiphany moment in the mystery of how to wire a relay into the AFR circuit. Innovate insists on having one present to help the gauge perform as it is supposed to but the where, a in where to get a clean and constant electricial signal from the ignition circuit itself was proving...

    It turns out that the dude doing the playing is a custom designer of guitars and related equipment. Most of what he is using to create that tone poem is stuff that he personally built. The credits list where you can score his products. As for me, well...

    What did you buy for your Gbody today? (2025)

    So, some of you will recall that, last year, I ordered door insulation panels from OPGI for my '85 M/Carlo SS, only to be informed that they were back ordered from the Mfgr with no firm date as to when they would be back in stock. That continued to be the case since that time, except that, once...
