    How to access rear speakers for replacement?

    My truck being an '89 I opted to not remove any panels at all.It's hard to find clean donor truck yet alone one with a clean maroon interior.You have a 50/50 chance of breaking the clips/panels on some trucks.guess it depends on the age & climate your in. I modded to rear pillars to...

    fast taurus fan question

    Hey riot936,that's the cts & no you wont be able to use it for fan control,the cts only has one purpose & it's a good one.There are few types/ways you can wire the fans to work properly.Many opt for the easy kit you can get at most auto parts which is a basically a probe you place/install near...

    AD244 installed in 1989 TBI OBS

    You can use the cs144,they also came 145 amps & all the to 250 amps if needed plus the plug I believe is the same cs130 as the cs144.The 144's replaced the cs130's 85,105 & 130 amps which were OEM on the early OBS & several other GM models.I believe GM changed over to the cs144 with the...

    Cams Vs. Emissions

    From CA also,I have a '89 5.7 TBI OBD1 that I modded sum & passed the emission/smog crap that we have to deal with. I found several cam's that I wanted but they would have been fails here in CA.Ended up using a RV cam.A Summit K1102 is the same as Edelbrock 2102 ( 204/214 .420/.442 112 LSA...

    AD244 installed in 1989 TBI OBS

    The plugs on & the 244 is working good.I installed a Mark8 efan,dual batteries with Big 3 & aux lights as well as great sound system some time ago.The OEM cs130 took a dump so had it rebuilt & lasted almost two years that way.I did upgrade the mono amp last November so that probably finished it...

    AD244 installed in 1989 TBI OBS

    Finally installed a ad244 in my 1989 TBI,I knew it wasn't going to be easy but anything is possible.The ad244 housing is much larger than the OEM cs130 so it has to have the file/grinder treatment.Patience is a plus as these alternators are pricey.The ad244 bottom bolt housing has to filled down...

    Electric fan wiring

    That's the one,just make sure you hit it with some type of spray lube at least 24 hrs ahead and you need a good totally square 1/2" extension not a rounded out one or else you'll be using some weld rod too.Do it yourself.I had an extra set of hands that day,not good.The 3/8" plug got stripped...

    Electric fan wiring

    Hey Tyler,what headers are you using?The reason why I ask is that most SBC headers I've seen have grooves witch are meant to not cover the threaded hole 3/8-NPT on the pass side head. I used a thermostatic fan control switch from Summit when I installed the Mark8 fan almost 3 years ago,never a...

    Best plugs for 350 TBI

    Regular AC Delco's seam to run better in my '89.I tried "performance" plugs & the TBI did not like it.It was a waste of hard earned $$$$. I have the Delco's gaped at .50 right now & it's perfect,but I due have an MSD coil & 6A ignition box.

    Speakers!

    I'm running some Alpine plate 4x6's up front & modded the rear pillars for a set of Pioneer 6 3/4" 4 ways.You have to cut the pillars some but no big deal,if you take your time it should come out great.Also ran better heavier/thicker wire to all 4 speakers so an Alpine V12 4 channel amp can do...
