    Basic TBI mod success

    I believe this is true on the later model tbi and the cars with roller cam engines but, the early model truck tbi engines are boat anchors and why gm changed the cam. The one in my truck was stock down to the paper air filter and smog pump, it reacted fine and moved the truck best it could with...

    Basic TBI mod success

    Easy, because on a stock cam tbi the gain will be minimal if any.

    Basic TBI mod success

    if you have the equipment to burn your own chips contact davew on www.Gearhead-efi.com he, may be able to help you tune for a fee.. its a shame to waste the money you have spent when you are almost done.

    Basic TBI mod success

    The holley intake isnt worth the cost, just buy a single plane carb intake and tbi adapter.. I literally did this swap a year ago. If the roller rockers are not 1.6 I wouldnt bother, your biggest deficit is the cam that with 1.5 roller rockers doesnt give more than .040 lift. The lt1 cam is...

    Basic TBI mod success

    You are on the right track, after the tbi mod it can quickly become not worth it. I did vortec heads and Cam by the time I was done it was almost $1000 to swap them and then you have to tune the efi so another 100-500 depending which route you choose. For that much I could have bought a 5.3/4l60...

    re-gear or axle swap plus re-gear?

    It is better than your 308s but will still be lacking, 410 is supposedly ideal for 33s.

    re-gear or axle swap plus re-gear?

    410s with 35s is like 1800 at 70, this is very similar to 342s and stock tires. It is not performance minded and with a stock 350 tbi it had to downshift for hills/wind passing cars with less than mile of room... That siad switch axles means new wheels also and that can gear expensive... swap...

    Cruisin' thru the summer

    I like some of the body styles like that but my idea of a cruiser car would be one of these Suicide door Lincoln 69 Cadillac Coupe Deville 65 Rivera 58 Impala/Biscayne/Caprice 65 Biscayne problem is none would fit in my garage.

    I got owned. It's not a TH400 . Diff between TH350 vs. TH375

    I thought the 375 was BOP trans..look I learnt somfin... if the 375 is the mostly the same as the 400 like mentioned above, I would have it upgraded to the 400 and then never wonder if you are overloading it..

    79 Trans am

    I get it, on 1 hand I say put it together and drive it. On the other hand fix the rust you already have access to so it doesnt get worse ie the floor boards cut the rust out, put in new metal best you can (it can always be fixed later). Im willing to bet rebuilding that 350 is going to be...

    1988 IROC-Z

    The intake is a short runner TPI upgrade called the Holley Stealth Ram, it works with your factory ecm and injectors to improve air flow and remove the 4500 RPM wall the TPI engine struggled with. http://www.superchevy.com/how-to/0307htp-hollley-stealthram-intake-third-gen-iroc/ Well hell if I...

    Is the "body shop" tryna rob me

    Does this $7K include paint or not? The thing with rust repair and body work is you never know how much you are going into until its to late and the options are fix it or scrap it. 7K to remove all the rust, install new panels, hack apart a frame,section it, c notch it is all alot of work and...

    Serpentine Setup Back Braces

    I dont have those on my vette but the AC isnt working either. The early alum serp brackets cracked and believe these brackets were the solution to keep them from cracking..Mine were repaired at some point. I think I still have the supports laying around somewhere. I will try to find them and see...

    292 cam in a daily?

    Based on what I see its just more left and less lsa that a stock l82 cam from Corvettes, says it works with power brakes but, buying a cam that doesnt match the rest of the build will net poor performance. Call up a cam company and tell them what you have so they can get you a better cam than...
