    How to: NBS master cylinder swap for firm brake pedal

    Id be curious to see how this would work on a 2500 (truck in sig). At quick glance through the catalog, it looks like all nbs 2500s are hydroboost. I wonder if that mc would work for my vacuum boosted obs 2500. On a side note, Ive never had an issue with my brakes as they've always felt as...

    Q- Logic Kick Panels

    I have as well. I was surprised when the kit actually included some polyfill. The overall quality and packaging of this product has impressed me overall.

    Q- Logic Kick Panels

    Unfortunately not yet. Ive cut the holes in the panels and test fitted the speakers, but haven't actually put them in yet. My new project car is taking away all my time currently.

    Question about AC compressor drag

    My converted r12 system has very noticeable drag with the 350 and a new GM compressor. Also cycles quite often though not low on refrigerant, and never seemed to cool as well as good ole r12.

    Q- Logic Kick Panels

    This is good to know, as Im not one to start cutting into doors. The trucks only a driver, and Im only looking for an improvement from the 4x6. My home theater satisfies my audiophilia :smile: . Did you lose foot room? How did it affect the floor mats?

    Q- Logic Kick Panels

    Just ordered some and was looking for thoughts and past experience with them. They basically allow you to put a 6.5" component speaker set into the kick panels.

    88-98 Heavy Duty Headlight Harness Kit (NEW)

    This sucks. I was hoping to buy a harness with fog lights integrated.

    Mobil 1 0w-40

    Im not concerned about that as 0-40 is mobil 1's only true group IV synthetic. Thanks for the input.

    Mobil 1 0w-40

    Though I run Amsoil in the main truck (sig), the beater gets Mobil 1 Extended performance 5w30 in the winter, and 10w30 in the summer because I run synthetic in everything. With 5w30 in the winter, consumption is about 1/2 a quart between 3000 mile changes, and 10w30 yields the same in summer...

    IAC Valve Question

    Replaced egr valve and egr vacuum control valve (not solenoid; apparently the 4 bolt main tbi 350s shared this with the 454s). All above mentioned issues are resolved. Strange behavior considering the egr valve held vacuum.

    Touchy rear brakes, locking up

    Every GM vehicle ive ever driven with rear drums are sensitive when wet. Issue quickly goes away after initial application though.

    TBI spacer and fuel lines

    I had to remove the clip because the feed line ended up being too long with the complete cfm technologies kit, return line still fit.

    TBI spacer and fuel lines

    Yup I had this same issue a while back. Theres a clip that's bolted with a stud to the bellhousing. Remove the 14mm nut that removes the wire loom and tranny breather bracket, then remove the 13 mm stud, its tight as f!ck. Thread the fuel lines before bolting the throttle body itself. The fuel...

    Whistling/Whining Sound Fluctuates with RPMs

    Not sure. There are bearings against the distributor shaft that go bad and create excessive play and noise.

    IAC Valve Question

    Intake gaskets were done 15,000 miles ago by the trusted local chevy dealer, and I currently have no coolant loss at all. An, interesting unrelated twist, ive been having a stumble/ miss issue for a little while (rebuilding the tbi did not remedy). First start of the morning no matter the...

    IAC Valve Question

    Idle with iac bottomed out and unplugged is silky smooth 525. What would the chances be of a bad ecm?

    IAC Valve Question

    Yeah its truly odd behavior. Another interesting situation; pulled the pcv vac line, and warm idle raises from 1000 to 1400. Cover the port with my finger and idle drops to 525 (the lowest its ever idled out of gear). Thought I found the problem but putting the line back on yields no change...

    May be a little far fetched, but....

    Found a sight that supposedly searches all of craigslist, and maybe this isn't the time of year to buy.

    Another Oil Cooler Line Thread

    Ended up having hydraulic lines made at the local Omni for $60. Will install on my next day off.

    IAC Valve Question

    1000 rpms give or take. When I modded the throttle body (CFM Technologies kit), I noticed the pintle on the original iac valve seemed a bit loose, but I never actually removed it. I reassembled everything, and it ran great. A week later I replaced the iac valve with the GM unit, and my issues...

    IAC Valve Question

    Just warm idle. Cold idle is the normal 1300 rpms.
