    Gm big block 454 to small block ford zf5

    I adapted a V6 Buick to a 911 Porsche bellhousing. And merged the Porsche flywheel to the Buick crank. I started with a 3/4" aluminum plate big enough for the Buick bolt pattern. Place it on the mill,bore a hole that just fits the engine crank flange. Make transfer punches to screw into all the...

    Engine Bay Clean Up & Charcoal Canister Removal Help?

    The vent line for the tank needs to be operable or you'll pull a vacuum in the tank. You can put a plastic fuel filter in the vent line,to let the tank breathe but keep dirt and bugs out. The charcoal cannister helps keep moisture out of the tank,so your fuel lines don't freeze in the winter and...

    Disconnected fuel line in engine bay

    Looks like a vent line to the charcoal cannister. I'd want to know how your tanks are venting. I usually tell people that aren't running the tank vent to the cannister to plug the hose with a clear plastic fuel filter. That way the tanks can breath but dirt and bugs can't get in the vent line.

    Where can I replace this?

    I'd see if I had radio interference without it first if so I'd just buy a capacitor and make one.

    1984 K10 LS Swap - Lots of Little Problems

    If I had to make jumpers to swap #2 and #4 injector plugs I would. If the problem moves to #4 you will know it is the wiring on #2 or the driver for #2. You will need to change during sequence or switch to batch fire.
