    Control Arm Bushing Installation

    Pressing against rubber usually doesn't work well. You need to us old bearing races or pieces of pipe to push against the metal part of the bushing.

    Pinion angle?

    If using a regular drive shaft with 1 u joint on each end then you retain the factory angle to match the output shaft angle. If you have a cv joint drive shaft then you have to change the angle.

    Converting a TBI coil to a cylindrical coil

    Resistors were used because point will burn up when run on a full 12 volts. If you run a resistor on a solid state ignition system it might work however the spark will be weaker than it should be. Like I mentioned earlier The europeans used traditional looking cylindrical coils that ran on...

    Where do the engine bay decals go?

    Don't mean to hijack this thread but :rolleyes: My emissions label is long gone and i can't seem to find the correct one. There are some companies that reproduce them but want a pic of the original. So I'm hoping someone here can come up with a clear pick of one for a 1977 California...

    '95 GMT400 steering column swap

    the shift linkage is on the wrong side of the columb and the lower section that goes through the fire wall is different. Probably more trouble than it's worth. With that said I used the upper part of the column from where it tilts on up. You can mix and match parts and it works. I gained...

    Converting a TBI coil to a cylindrical coil

    To the best of my recollection. The bosch coils used on 240-740 volvos and probably a lot of european stuff looked like the traditional round coil but were used on electronic systems that ran a full 12 volts. might be worth looking into.

    Intake Manifold Bold length

    1/2 manifold 1/16 gasket leaves 1/2 of threads should be fine.. As a rule i like to catch at least as much thread as the width of the bolt , a little more if going into aluminum threads. Be careful there are a couple pushrods behind the intake bolt holes, if your bolts are too long they can...

    Slow and labored power windows

    This shows for 73-87 which is not accurate. 73-76 no power windows 77-81 grounded through the motors and used a different motor switches and wiring. The relay upgrade shown should work for 82 and up. The windows in my 77 are slow as molasses I usually only use them with the engine...

    Stock replacement shocks

    Personally i've never cared for Monroe or Gabriels. I have seen too many fail at 20-30k . Bilstein has worked well for me, over 100k on the current set and still going strong.

    73 k5 power window conversion

    Correct me if im wrong but i dont think 73-76 came with power from the factory. Your 76 donor might have later model doors on it? I do believe the guts will swap between the two. but the door panels don't.
