    1987 Chevrolet 350 tbi high idle

    I don't think there is a sending unit made that doesn't seep oil out of it. My Subie BRAT has the same issue after replacing it with a new one several years back.

    Window Felt Replacement

    I'm going to measure mine, but I'm pretty sure the drivers window that is black is wider than the rusty metal one on the passenger side. I could be wrong, but I've examined them pretty close and am sure there is a thin piece of cladding of some sort. It always seems like the passenger side is...

    The chrome trim is available on Ebay for about 1/2 the price as the supply houses. Probably the EXACT same stuff...

    Window Felt Replacement

    If you look closely, there is a thin metal cladding both inside & out over the top of the steel. I think it's actually aluminum, maybe plastic??? They are all mostly a bit rusty beneath this thin cladding, and without the cladding they are a bit thinner also.

    Window Felt Replacement

    Yeah, I think every window is a bit different. I left mine outside the door frame a bit, just barely tucked into the channel, and when the window shut it pushed it up into the frame more, so I figured it would settle into place where the window tracked. I finally got my wing window seals locked...

    Window Felt Replacement

    I could, but it's a bit of a different dimension without the cladding on it, it just looks skinny!

    Cruise Control Module location

    I'm trying to find out exactly where the cruise module mounts on my '87??? I cannot find it in a Haynes manual, the factory wiring manual, nor on this site unless I just missed it.

    Window Felt Replacement

    I also had to change my drivers door motor after the new felts. I bought a pair off ebay for like $58 with a 5 year warranty. I haven't done the passenger door yet as I've been trying to locate a wing window that has the black metal cladding on the divider bar as mine is bare, rusted metal. I've...

    cheap-ish options for my 86

    Blocking the exhaust cross over will probably hurt the performance. There is a science behind cross overs, 2 into 1 exhaust systems on almost every combustion engine made. That is why the engineers install them from the factory. A higher flowing muffler & tailpipe will be more advantageous to...

    CLEAN 80s K10 in Seattle for sale

    Back in '89 when I bought my SS, the GN's were essential the same price. I remember them being about $3,800-$4,200 all day long. I just didn't want a V-6 and thought the Monte's looked better. I wish I would have bought 3 Buicks now!

    CLEAN 80s K10 in Seattle for sale

    No car had the body lines of the Monte, that was my big attraction! In fact, I still want an '88 Aerocoupe, T-top, buckets car.

    OER compared to LMC

    You can buy the new bezel and the brushed overlay for about $30 cheaper through LMC. I'm pretty sure they are made by the same supplier.

    CLEAN 80s K10 in Seattle for sale

    Nothing wrong with the 305, just a bit doggy. Removing a cat & running a set of good flowing duals makes a huge diff. Had an '86 Monte SS with the HO 305 that ran pretty damn good. Hell , I passed on buying several of the turbo 6 banger GN's because of that V-8 power! (IDIOT!!!!)

    OER compared to LMC

    A lot of those re-pops are made/suppled from same manufacturer overseas. Especially the GM Restoration parts, just different distributors. I really like my dash overlay I got from LMC, you just have to rub hard in a couple places to keep it stuck.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Installed new fuel pump in auxiliary tank, after cleaning the gunk out of it. Rinsed it with gas, sloshed a chain around inside to break up rust scale, blew it out with air. I had to go pick a set of tank straps as mine were rusted through. Had to replace my 6-8 month old fuel tank valve as I...
