    Introduction and rear question

    Zach, which axles did you use? Love Yukon, have it an a few different applications and all are still going strong. I also have had excellent results with Strange engineering, and a great company to work with.

    Introduction and rear question

    If you just have to keep the 10b, there are after market lockers/posies, ARB, Auburn gear, Eaton, Detroit, Yukon etc, but $$$$. You could truss the housing, and looks cool to. BUT, the very first thing that I would do is to up the 1040 1.10 stock axles to 1.21minor spline dia, which is a 32%...

    Introduction and rear question

    While The info Ricko gave is great, which rearend do you have? 88 and newer should had the thirty spline, but had a 1.1 necked down section of the shaft that makes it weaker then the 28 spline. 28 spline is, though different then the D44, strength is a toss up. I have an LQ4, and once you get it...

    Had a hole, this is the repair, not pretty, but solid and sanded. Again this will be Seam sealed and painted, rhino lined. That completes the back half. Still lots of parts to go on, but got the yucky stuff done.

    Another dirty day wire brushing and welding in the bottom of the fender. Tedious, but looks good. Almost have the back half clean enough to wipe down for paint. I need to do much seam sealing, got most everything sanded and deburred, hate cutting myself on a car, so I smooth and radius...

    This was a major P---er, but I finally got it in. This driveline loop also has provisions for the four bar setup, and shock mounts. Now that it is in, I will finish welding it in. Also didn't help that the wire in my welder got messed and wouldn't feed. If you ever had to take a spool out, well...

    Quick Fuel / Holley leakage around needle

    My QF is about 5 years old, was on my brothers 65 Plymouth Satellite with a stroked 440 to 486. I use AME's A/R gage with Bosch wide band in the collector area. Worked with the 750 holly, I learned a lot, but that truck went like stink at any speed, fun. Also in the market for a good QF book.

    I am already thinking of engine mods....sheesh, it's a sickness. I already have a Texas Speed can .600 lift, some ported and completed heads that I sent to K-tek. Have a set of Launati Rods. Would need a better intake and bigger injectors. Slap me now. We have sun here today, a blessing and I am...

    Today cut out anything I don't need, much cleanup, and had to modify some big washers to fill a hole where the front leaf springs have a 2.44 dia. hole on one side. I did not get them welded in, but got them to fit. Everything is clean where the new suspension is going in, the sub frame is...

    Got the old 8.2 and the suspension out, not to bad being by myself, the trans lift is very helpful.

    Ignition overhaul

    Dui, stock, I run an MSD 6al, been very reliable. There is a module down under the plate, sounds like that is bad, and a cheap easy fix.

    I just sprayed in the shop..............tomorrow will tell the carnage/overspray. I have the heater set @ 75 deg., as I am using a medium reducer, or activator. I need some more primer, so will get some tomorrow as that is town day. I want to do the roof next, as that will be a day job, and it...

    Got er done. Two coats black then two coats clear with flatter. Never used flatter, it goes by weight. I do have a scale that weighs in grams, so it was easy. Just look at the chart they give you, and pour that many grams in. This was a two stage clear, so clear, activator, flatter. The shop...

    Soooooo, if you have drifted this way, I need some advice on the LS swap. Hoping to have a roller by the end of the week, then I can get the LS1 (2000 Camaro, rear sump), out of the shed and begin to prep and install. Motor mounts? Trans mount, still have the original, may mod it. I have the...

    It is a wonder these shoe box cars lasted as the craftmanship is lacking. seam gaps, holes where two panels were attached......anyway I am fixing all that as I am going, seam sealing welding, patching you get the drift. Still a long way to go, but getting paint on the car after 15+ years is very...

    Masked and cleaned again then primed. Using PPG lamabase epoxy, seems to stick good. First coat used 1/4:1 medium reducer for a sealer, second coat 1:1 primer, activator. While you don't need to sand, I will be doing seam sealing, and filling a bunch of spot welds with bondo. then sand smooth...

    I am just trying to preserve what's left of the Nova. This is under the dash, got a couple coats of black satin on there. Scuffed it with green scotchbrite, wax and grease remover, paint.
