Well, all right then. I'm glad the cracking springs are over now!

Re: Restoring the SSEi: F40 swap, HIDs, and a HY35 turbo.

But weren't people flocking to the Crow Cams springs because Comp Cams kept breaking? I recall Paul from PRJ Performance told me that the springs are fine, but they crack because they need more oil flowing under the valve covers to cool them. It's assumed that increasing the oil pressure in the ...

Re: I am terrible at searching: 99 H-body brake conversion

Wait, that's it? I just need a new cable? Awesome! The one in the Porsche broke also, so that leaves me with a complete and absolute need to buy some cabling.

I need to see more mods from you, Matt! What you have so far is almost too much to handle, but I'll manage.

Re: I am terrible at searching: 99 H-body brake conversion

Yes! I'm back! Sorry about the long delay - I have been encumbered by work. I don't particularly mind, but now I can't do as much on forums as I had hoped to start doing. Thank you very much for the responses! That thread is a goldmine of info.

For the e-brake, I don't see how much is missing once ...

I am terrible at searching: 99 H-body brake conversion

On my 99, I would like disk brakes in the rear. I looked briefly but didn't find a rundown. Maybe there's more to be found with "disc" instead of "disk," but still I only found some posts from 2011.

Which parts should I buy for rear disk brakes on the 99, please? I would like to swap out the rear ...

Yes, that's how it usually goes with pictures. I'll see if I can set up mine similarly, and then I'll post pictures.

Re: 92-99 mount fixes?

Cool, thanks for the dogbone link! I got the idea from you, and now I don't have to search for the part. I was talking with my race shop friends (homies, if you will), and they are strictly against a polyurethane filled torque axis mount. I'm up for it, though, and I have a spare I had intended to ...

Re: 92-99 mount fixes?

Hey, what's up?

In Michigan, we did a good job welding a metal plate to the side of the mount so that it was just solid. However, that rattled itself loose, and the bolts were caught and tightened again before they could fall out. I'm told that having a totally solid motor mount risks cracking the ...

92-99 mount fixes?

Hello again! I've been away from the forums for a long time, so I'm not up to date on new finds for how to hold the trans and engine in place. Have you found some new molds, different parts, or something else? I replaced all 4 mounts a couple years ago, and already they're squishy and letting the ...

Re: My 1985 Porsche 944

Thanks everyone! The timing belt looks great, but I'll keep an eye on it and probably change it in the late spring if I've driven it enough by then. I think I'll be able to tell by the plugs eventually, though at first I'll stay cautious.

I don't think the car is from Ohio. It had been sitting with ...

Re: My 1968 Chevy C-10

Thanks for the positive comments!

The 66 & 67 years are vastly different. Beast, do your old trucks still run like new? This one has an I6 that seems to want to keep running even after being rained in. I am changing it out, but the previous owner was less kind. And Sirius, the locks still work. The ...

My 1968 Chevy C-10

I got this for free! The previous owner did a pretty good job painting it flat black and redoing the truck bed in wood. Since that effort, though, some things have rusted through, the body mounts are gone, and the wooden truck bed is rotting slightly.

In the truck bed is the original head with a ...

This car is awesome! http://i.imgur.com/QsputoH.jpg

I got it last week. It runs and works very well. Very peppy, too, for a naturally aspirated 4-cyl. This is my infrequent cruising car, I suppose, though I'll still work on my two Bonnevilles and my C-10. I'll get more pictures soon after this ...

Re: Maybe Someone On Pontiac Bonneville Club can Help Me

The SS M90 route is the same way as putting on the proper L67/L32 LIM and heads but still using the pulley that lets you run with one belt. If I'm reading this correctly, an S2 with an S2 balancer will go from NA to supercharged in one way or another. A lot of top-swapped GP guys change out the ...

Re: Maybe Someone On Pontiac Bonneville Club can Help Me

Sandrock, which S2 vs S3 balancing hardware is necessary for a change from one supercharger to another?

Retaining the L36 balancer would be best given the L36 flexplate and L36 internals. Whether there's an L32 or an L67 supercharger on top with heads and a LIM doesn't change the balance of the ...

Re: Maybe Someone On Pontiac Bonneville Club can Help Me

-- Series II/III parts --
I'm aware that the fuel rail and injectors are different. He'd probably need a return line with a Series II fuel rail setup. How does a returnless line work with an OBDII and a Series II? If it's possible, I'm cool with it. Which throttle body is going to be used? I guess ...
