Is that in tank pump going to feed that monster you are ready to fire up? :skeptic:

I'm in the middle of upgrading my 1969 Blue Angel vert with RideTech suspension and have a question for you guys. (Hope GTR1999 chimes in). All the how-to articles recommend setting the trailing arm wheel bearing endplay to .002" max. My buddy who owns Competition Marine Center and has much...

I'm doing mine as we speak. Bought all the parts from Yukon Gear.

On the way home from Benefit Car show for fallen police officer Saturday, RamJet's charging system shot craps. The amp meter started reading negative amps and burnt smell came from engine compartment. I quickly pulled over at the nearest bar to assess the situation. No impending fire danger...

So, what else changed? Different drive shaft / angle?

Need a working late 69 to 72 pie pan wiper door actuator and mounting bracket for Blue 69 vert. My original 69 coffee can actuator will not clear coils mounted on valve covers. Thanks Bullshark

We are in the middle of a frame off restoration and would like to beef up the frame while it is bare. I remember some threads on the topic but cant find them. Where do we start? Help appreciated. Bullshark

It was pointed out to me that I was damn lucky I didn't have a slip fit or that wheel would have surely left through the rear quarter panel. :smash:

After busting my butt getting RamJet ready for a show down at Lake of the Ozarks, I got a call from Weber Chevrolet. My order was built on 4/28 and delivered Friday 5/1. I couldn't leave town without picking it up that day!!! I was too late getting down there, the show sold out 1000 entry's...

Thanks Howard, but I was in a big hurry to get the job done so I could make it to the Lake of Ozark Dam car show Friday and Saturday. Finished today. :yahoo: I bucked up and went with a Heavy Duty High Strength Alloy spindle that was available locally. $175. I took my rotor which was slightly...

Gene, actually the bearings were ok prior to the shit hitting the fan. No signs of bearing failure that I could see. The shaft on the other hand :bomb: That was the original spindle. I was actually pretty lucky the wheel didn't let go and take out the rear quarter panel. I was doing around...

Thought I would take RamJet out for a Pre Dam Car show test drive prior to this weekends gathering down at the Lake of the Ozarks. My usual slam it thru the gears test....... failed!! :smash::clobbered::suicide: Im thinking a little JB weld might get me thru the...

Nice Easter basket. :1st: So, already have a removable cross-member I assume. Makes the job much easier!! :thumbs:

JPhil, As a point of reference, I installed the TKO-500 in RamJet (502) a number of years ago. It has the .68 OD ratio with 3.08 rear gears. I run 245x45x17's for tires. That equates to around 1925 rpm at 70mph using the calculator. My Tach reading is actually around 2000 +/- a few rpm's...

Made it down here to Florida for the winter months. Wondering if any of the Vettmod crew plan on attending next weekend (Jan 23-24).......that is if they will let us in. :lol: Bullshark

I have been looking for a way to upgrade my old c3 stereo radio without having to by a new center gauge bezel ($200 plus) and a single din aftermarket radio. Or, buy one of those high dollar C3 classic radio upgrades that replace the old stock radio and still don't have many of today's option...

Kevin, the Holley Commander 950 is an older system, one of the first MPFI systems to come out. While there should have been no reason for failure, it can be a challenge to setup and tune. The newer Holley EFI system is far superior and much easier to install and tune. From personal...

I put Michelin run-flats on the C5 about 20k miles ago. Much better ride than the oem Goodyear tires. A lot quieter and smoother but expensive. Still plenty of miles left.

Which throw-out bearing do you have? There are three basic throw out bearings. the short, medium and long that I am familiar with. If you go to your local parts house, they almost always give you the short bearing. The stock pivot ball needs the medium spaced bearing. Going with the short...

Just returned from my our yearly trek to the Corvette Museum. Saw the sink hole and everything, but this made a crushing impression...:smash:
