    Grand Prix metal replacement parts

    Hey everybody, picked up an 83' grand prix lj recently off Craigslist and planning to make a decent driver out of it until I can raise the body and really get into it. Right now I'm in the middle of another project so this one will be sort of a side project. Well I raised it up to get a good...

    Reinstalling wiper arms

    Going on power tour next month so I need the wipers working. I'm able to get the driver side one in but not the passenger. It keeps popping out. I tried taking the old one off on my father's car and it won't stay on either. Out of three different wiper arms none of them want to stay on. I will...

    Spindle differences

    Anyone know if all g body spindles are the same? I bought a new set of wheels and need lug nuts and would rather get metric studs in front to match the gn rear end. Is it just a rotor and bearings from a newer car on there or is the spindle also different?

    LS Swap parts what works and what doesn't

    It seems like the LS swap database thread got cluttered pretty quick so maybe we can all just post what mounts, headers, oil pan etc we used to help get people on the right track. There are alot of companies saying their mounts work but only with their headers and oilpans, etc. My setup: BRP...

    Rear control arm braces

    Anyone have some pictures of their car with bolt in rear control arm braces? I bought a set thinking I may as well seeing as I'm doing other rear suspension upgrades. But I have an actual exhaust on my car, and seeing as the mufflers on 95% of G-bodies are right next to the lower control arm...

    11.83@115 was my fastest pass. Was on 245/50/16 Nitto drag radials. Made some passes with a 28/9-15 slick but the drag radial was much better for some reason IsPCDJz5nwo http://youtu.be/IsPCDJz5nwo

    Non-delay wiper connectors

    Can someone post a picture please of how the connectors are wired? I didn't even think about it when I tossed the harness out when wiring up my Painless. I have the diagram with the colors, I'm just not sure which pin is A, B, etc. Thanks

    Dying your interior panels with a spray can

    I'm making this thread just for people who don't know how to do this. It's very easy and I always see posts asking what to use and how to do it. I just recently removed my passenger side kick panel and repainted it, since I chipped it up putting it in originally, plus my car leaks water so it...

    Wheels poll

    Maybe thinking about putting on a new set of wheels this year. Vote which ones you think will look the best. The color will be staying the same on the car, however the height may be raised or lowered depending on how the car sits with the 6.0 4L60E combo in place for good. In order for the...

    Steering box troubles

    So I go to put the steering shaft back in my car, which is a modified Jeep shaft to fit our cars. I had this shaft on the car with the old F41 steering box so I know it works perfectly fine. Anyways, I go to put the shaft on the car, and the thing will not fit on the F-body steering box I got...

    GP and F41 jounce bars

    Been seeing a couple threads on here lately about GP and F41 jounce bars and decided to throw some pictures up of mine. I'm using a Kirban GP brace that I bought used off MR.com, but can be had from http://www.gbodyparts.com for like $60-$70. Also using unmodified F41 jounce bars with the stock...

    Column trans linkage question

    Anyone modify their stock column so it doesn't have the ear on the end of it for the trans linkage? Does the collar on the column spin freely when it's disconnected or does it just stay in the same spot?

    Power steering lines

    Anyone know of a company that makes BLACK braided power steering lines? All I'm finding are the blue lines, and the braided stainless ones. I guess if worse comes to worse I can get the blue ones and paint them black. But stainless and blue are going to look wierd in an engine bay that's all...

    Should I support the fenders?

    Anyone leave the fenders on their car, and pull the core support off? I'm using a universal radiator, a B&M cooler, an Olds Cutlass condensor, and an LS1 fan and would like to do this off the car so I don't have to struggle with it, as well as paint the engine bay with some frame paint that I...

    New cast MC wheels

    Anyone seen these? http://www.yearone.com/serverfiles/fbsh ... .asp?cat=B Can't find a better picture anywhere. I always thought the wheels looked kind of nasty, but with the bigger size maybe they look better with the body lines of the cars :?:

    4th Gen Camaro 10-spokes?

    Anybody have a picture of the 10-spoke Camaro wheels on a G-body or older car? I think they would look pretty good with the boxyness of the spokes and the boxy styling of the G-bodies. Picture of the silver aluminum ones They have ones with the black surrounds in the spokes that came on the...

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1978-198 ... ccessories Price seems steep but these are brand new cushions for both seats. That's what was spent on my seat covers for the front two. I bought a garbage set of buckets but the description said they were in great shape :roll: . Thought I'd share...

    Which gauges to use?

    Hey all, faced with a tough decision here in my build coming soon. I'm switching over to a Gen III LQ4 and 4L60E trans controlled by a factory GM PCM. Since my speedometer is already on it's last limb, and the Cable X module to convert a electronic speed sensor to cable driven is over $300, I...
