On the 70-72, are the heater core tubes that come out of the firewall moved for the AC cars vs the heat-only cars? I'm looking to remove the AC firewall stuff (engine side) from my car. I thought learned that the heater cores came out in different places, if that's true then I can't use a regular heater/b...

it's the mall chase scene. IIRC, John D said he grew up there and the mall was getting demolished after they were done?

I know Catco does balancing; but wonder if there is a shop that someone has used and would recommend? To what rpm should it be balanced? Thanks.

We're taking the boys to Monster Jam at the dome tomorrow as Cale's 6th birthday present.

I haven't been to the dome since I was a kid... any recommendations for parking, or avoiding traffic and construction?

So what cool projects do you have planned for the long weekend? I plan on gutting a fifty year old garage so I can install insulation and put up some wallboard. Then redo some electrical and I’ll have about a thousand square feet of dry storage.

Not a Chevelle, but it's kind of dead in here so I thought I'd post my new Project. 1974 Arctic Cat El Tigre. It was in my sister's barn and hasn't run in 15 years. It's actually in pretty nice shape after I washed all the bird crap off it. Fuel lines are all rotted away, but the tank appears rust free. I gr...

Drive home wasn't bad, but no salt on the side streets as of a few minutes ago.

Is this possible to change the code from say a 8966 to a 8985 on an old gm ignition cylinder? No locksmiths here in town that I can call. Seems to me that I recall you can take the cylinder apart and do something to change the code; but not sure. Thanks

Today was absolutely gorgeous, and finally a good day for a cruise! Tina and I drove to Fleet Farm in Lakeville this afternoon for some non-oxy, and a guy pulls up to the pump in an orange '70 Boss 302 Mustang that had 60K original miles.

I like the looks of the new Silverado's and decided to do the on-line "build". To replace my current 2000 K1500 comparably equipped would be $40,000..

I'll wait until they are 4-5 years old and buy one used.
