1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
More on the cleaning of the inside. There are only a couple little areas where water has given itself to a couple little quarter sized areas of surface rust only. Clean and grunge free. Under the passenger rear seat you can clearly see the exhaust dent. Noice and clean. Well good enough for...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
Last Saturday, we ended up pulling the whole interior out of the car as I had new wiring to run. It really needed to be cleaned underneath the carpet and plastic panels something fierce. Here is the spare tire well after we pulled all the panels and carpet. Just dingy and dirty with a touch of...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
While in the yard, the Firebird also gave up its little factory wing. I like the spoiler that is on the car much better and this again will probably just be sold off. It was 98* out there one of the days and I took refuge in the shade. I had 3 or 4 different containers that had all the random...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
Loads of time have been spent on the car over the last couple of weekends. Since we needed a new to us dash, we went back to the carcass of the white '92 in the Pick N Pull. It gave up a pretty clean dash panel in factory fresh condition, not the hackery that happened to the poor thing... A...- Catbox

Another exhaust options thread - what should I do?
Here is a stock replacement system from Roc Auto. $108 plus shipping. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=11785569&cc=1032275&pt=10727&jsn=500 Seems pretty simple to me. Get it home and install it yourself with clamps. Or have somebody that knows how to weld do it up for you for a...- Catbox

Hey...what's the big idea..??
On our base the throttle shaft bores were all worn out, so I sourced the dreaded Holley. The Quad still lives here, but probably as a dust catcher on the shelf. I get between 9-12 mpg anyway, so either carb is doing me the same in that department....- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
We were all out there enjoying the less than super hot day out there this weekend. Here is a shot of the kids in the car after Elizabeth took the seats out. Max took a break from welding and helped her pull the console apart to get all the extra wire garbage out of it as well. Everybody...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
I then used my new center punch and drilled a pilot hole and opened the hole using a unibit to fit my bolt. A piece of shrink tube and then we have a complete cable end. Just what seemed like 47 more to do. New wire to the starter, the block ground, the 12v power lug for the fans, one for the...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
I spent the majority of my time in the driveway under the hood it seems. The battery is a stupid side post jobbie. If you have read this far, I will assume that you read through the stereo wiring section above. The PO sucks. That is all. So the wires at the battery are a mess and sticking out...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
Now that that is behind me, we spent probably close to 18 hours in the driveway last weekend. 12 on Saturday and 6 on Sunday. We slept in on Sunday and then went out and rounded up some deals from Marketplace for the Burger and her upcoming learning to ride a dirt bike. Picked up a chest...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
On the subject of the fine Chrysler speaker that were installed in the car. These were under the dash. Typically these cars have a maximum speaker size of 4x6 and even then some don't fit. These are simple 6 inch round speakers. THEY WERE NOT EVEN MOUNTED. JUST PLACED ON THE DASH THAT WAS...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
I am convinced the PO of the poor car was a pucking futz. He had no business wiring on the poor car the haphazard way that it was done. There was wiring running to the back of the car to power the sub amplifier that used to be there just wadded up. The white wire, whatever it was supposed to do...- Catbox

Need a bit more oomph...
I don't think that will be done to any of ours, but it could help in a colder climate. My old Nova didn't have a choke and neither did the VW beetle that I drove in all the weather from below freezing to above 100. Just hafta let them idle for a bit more before we drive away.- Catbox

Just advice please
If this is actually a Vortec block, then it would have roller lifters from the factory. As well as a plastic timing cover.- Catbox

Need a bit more oomph...
Juniors 307 with Vortec heads seems to be just fine. He bought the chineseium intake from Ebay for $150 and bolted it on. It had a small casting flaw that leaks coolant, so he used the warranty and agreed to simply pay the $15 shipping for a new one to be sent out to him. A pea size blob of JB...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
While taking a break, we were goofing around with the air cleaner. Now that we have the cowl hood on the car, I wanted to see if the K&N that is on the truck would fit under the hood. The filter is on a drop base and the Camaro needs to have a flat base filter on it. That is one crusty TBI...- Catbox

1992 RS Camaro. First car for Der Burger.
The PO replaced all the shocks on the car. The brake hose has a bracket that has a bracket that the hose clips into, or it is supposed too. Here we have the next best thing, a bunch of zip ties to hold it on... Flipping noodle head. I got the bracket off the junkyard donor and they had cross...- Catbox
