Mike, if it is just pitted I would take care of it during filler day :). If it is rust it needs to not be, however you feel is necessary to remove or replace it. I not a fan of rust encapsulator...
Fuck it, just stripped the return line out of the throttle body, I'm a little pissed. Motor just may get pulled and I'll build the damn 454 I have in the garage. Stupid damn piece of shit wouldn't...
Nice, it's alot easier starting from a media blasted car. Have Chevynut build you a C4 frame while it's all apart:). I have a 4 door sitting at my house for my 16 year old, for some reason I like...
Oh, also it runs really rich. It will run you out of the garage with all thre doors open.

I have a 1989 G10 350 TBI motor in my 57 for years now. Since I have installed it I have what seems like a idle issue. From my understanding the car should start, idle up then slowly idle to normal...
I have FTPE SS braided brake lines on my 57 that I had custom made from someone out in Cali. SS braided hose covering come in different colors. Example:...
Ahhh...Thermodynamics. Love this stuff. When I had Thermodynamics we spent alot of time using a rather simple equation used in alot of calculations:
Pabs=Patm+Pgage
Pabs = Pressure absolute (aka...
Voltage drop across battery during cranking was to 10V. Car fired almost immediately like it is suppose to. I may be out of gas but car did not stay running. Did it several times car would start,...
I'll check voltage drop on battery tonight. I have a number of theories about what could be the problem such as ignition switch drops voltage to 9V during crank to IGN (which I could relay the IGN...
[QUOTE]
Yes that is what I am trying to do. Prior to yesterday this was not happening with the stock switch, therefor the relay setup. It is highly possible I did not have the wiring correct and...
Rick do you think a voltage drop of that magnitude will cause issues for the ECM?
What about using the relay that I don't need to create a redundant 12v to the ECM?
Or would going ahead with...
Went and bought a relay after work. Figured I would check to make sure I was losing power to the fuel pump relay, had to wire a few things back up, but for some reason I'm getting power to the ECM...
That is my plan Laszlo. I will use a 5 prong relay (has 87a), take my current 12V power to the switch and attach to #30, the attach 87a to the BAT side of my ignition switch, come off th IGN side of...
Yep no "R" post. Must have been why I wire it like I did. I'll come up with something or just use AAW's switch.

OOOO....this is what I need:

made of nylon and is split. Sweet!

Another quick question if you don't mind, under my dash is a complete wiring mess do to the IDIDIT column, Autometer gauges, stereo, computer,etc...I want to clean it up. Has anyone used wire loom...
Ahh, I see what you are talking about, I was under the dash trying to wire it from memory of this conversation and well got my wires crossed...hehe. I didn't attach anything to the "R" post. It is a...
So no luck last night getting everything to work. When I jumped a wire across the SOL to the IGN car would crank in run. I think I will have to go back through my wiring harness and change a few...
Backfeeding is probably not the technical term but what was happening was I was using a 5 prong relay - #30(12V) #87a(12V) #85(ground) #86(switched) #87(output). I had #87 running to the power to the...
Ha, finally a solution that I did not know exists. I got in touch with AAW and they already make a 57 switch that they sell in their kits that is bussed in crank and run. I gave up looking 4 years...
JT56, a Dual Gate would be cool but I would have to install a 4 speed conversion kit and would hate to do that, Shiftworks is the only company I know that makes a kit and it ends up putting overdrive...
Didn't know where this should go but I'm looking for a B&M automatic 4speed shifter. I know you guys are probably hogging one somewhere in your garage:). It is going in a 79 Camaro. Something like a...
I bent my own as well. It cost more for the tools than the actual SS line. I only ran one ss hardline and the return is braded fuel line.

My 57 has their radiator plus dual spal setup. People love looking at it and so do I. I do wish I got a overflow tank instead of just their overflow whatever you call it. My car pisses geen...
