Got the vette aligned today on a laser machine. I have a vbp performance plus setup with a grand am rack. To get the Front caster/camber in the acceptable range we had to take all the shims out of the upper control arm bolt on the firewall side and add 1/2" of shims to the upper control arm bolt...

Since the alignment rack was full at the tire shop, I decided to pull over to the co-op and get weighed. Several of my friends have used the scales and confirmed their accuracy. 3010 pounds with half a tank of gas. I will be shedding even more weight when I get rid of all the bumper supports...

Had some difficulty last night priming the fuel system. My setup is-walbro gs392, c5 regulator with a prefilter. Took way to many cycles to get up to the fuel rail. I took the schrader valve out of the fuel rail and I thought the gas would come spewing out, but it didnt. Gas is definitely at the...

Does the return line off the c5 regulator need to be fuel injection type hose or can it just be regular 3/8 fuel hose? I would figure its not under much pressure, but thats me. Any input?

Hot Rod Air Problem I rarely ever bitch about a vendor, but I am going to make an exception. 3 months ago I ordered their c3 AC kit. 3 MONTHS!! Going on 3 and a half! They ship me some parts about a month and a half after ordering my kit, but not everything. When I ordered this kit the salesman...

Alright, Im trying to decide whether to go with stainless steel headers or get ceramic. Im going with Fbody headers on my LS swap. I just cant make up my mind. Its about 120$ difference, stainless being more expensive. Obviously stainless will outlast me, you, and whoever. The ceramic run a...

Before I typed "has anyone used one of these" I did a search and came up with this- http://vettemod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=824&highlight=wilwood+parking+brake I was thinking of making a bracket to mount one or two of them on the rear of my setup. Any thoughts? Anyone else done this...

So I picked up a pair of 2" JJs with zerks in the casing. Didnt like the way the poly bushings fit and figured I would try something different. So here it is. I had already installed the new poly bushings so I took a 2" hole saw and fit it around the bushing. I didnt use a pilot bit because the...

My 76 fuel line was down the passenger side frame rail. Im putting in new ss 3/8 line for my ls swap. The inlet on the fuel rail of the ls6 manifold is on the driverside. Im not running a return line because I will be running the corvette regulator with built in return. I was thinking of just...

So if youve read my other post you know iv been working on my front suspension. Well the other night while working I noticed a puddle under my wheel hub. so I rotated the hub over and this is what I saw! The grease seems to be breaking down. I know it sometimes seperates, but this bad? on both...

For some reason I bolted the spring up to the aluminum block mounts on the lower control arms and the spring is touching the engine cradle in the middle and the ends are touching the bottom of the shocks. I havent even tightened the 8" bolts up yet. I have it set on next to stiffest hole.I have...

Im currently running a 3/4 bore Wilwood clutch master cylinder. I was using it in conjunction with my Ram hydraulic throwout bearing on my T5 trans setup. Im switching to a t56 trans setup. Not really crazy at how the wilwood mounted. Is the truck master a large enough bore to power the T56...
