    Junkyard Rant

    So I was under the 88 this past weekend and happened to notice that the drivers torque box is torn up BAD. I don't think that there is anyway that I could weld it back together. It looks like it got slammed into a curb but I know that I have never curbed it since I have had it. So I start...

    Headgasket or intake gasket probs?

    Got a problem with the 88 coupe. I was heading over to a friends house yesterday and here is a quick rundown on what I was doing and what happened. I was on one of the local toll roads coming out of the plaza passing a guy. In 3rd gear around 4k rpm. When I shifted into 4th I noticed the...

    Manual mirror removal

    The remote manual mirrors in my 88 are shot, they hardly move at all. I found a set of remote manual mirrors in the JY that work great but I can't figure out for the life or me how to get them off. I got the inside trim panel with the lever unscrewed and the mirror unbolted but I can't get the...

    Finally, I can pull codes

    Finally got the new A9L in and figured out why the car had an intermittant miss at part throttle. Ended up having a bad plug but I am glad I did cause I probably wouldn't have found that I also had a crapped out ECU otherwise. I pulled the following codes. 12 Cannot control RPM during ER...

    Scored a new interior for the 88

    So I just got back from the JY and it was a good trip :D They had a 93 with the full interior still in it. So I pulled the whole interior except the seats and the carpet. Dash, headliner, door panels, quarter panels, console etc. The whole thing ended up costing me a whopping $72. :nice...

    Swapping dashes in an 88

    I found a 93 coupe at the local JY that still had its full interior. And the sand/beige interior in my 88 has seen better days, not to mention what a pain it is to even try to get parts. The 93 has a grey interior. I think that everything should just swap over, rear interior quarter panels...

    Problems with codes and possibly the computer

    So I am just a little frustrated today. The 88, which is a MAF converted car, has started to misfire a little when you are just cruising, its fine if you are on the throttle but under light throttle it starts to miss. So I figure that I will dump the codes and see what it tells me. Well it...

    Autometer tach electrical tach connections

    This one is for you guys that have antermarket tachs. I just got a dash gauge pod with a 5" autometer tach in it. The hook ups seem pretty straight forward, red wire to keyed source, white to the dash lights, black to ground and the green to the tach signal. Where did you guys pick up...

    Changing an oil pump sucks

    I pray that I never have an oil pump go out on my 88. I just finished helping my neighbor swap out an oil pump in his F-150 with a 351W. What a pain in the ass. We had the engine jacked up as far as it would go. The distributor didn't want to come out. Finally got it out after about an hour...

    I love my 88

    Just took my 88 out for a little drive and I just realized how much I truly enjoy driving it. Its not my DD so it only really gets driven on the weekends. I will be 33 this August and I just realized today that when I get behind the wheel of that car I feel like I have gone back to being 20...

    Cleaning a shortblock

    So I finally got a good deal on a 347 so I went to pay for and pick it up today. I wrapped it up in plastic put it in the back of my truck and went home. Well unknown to me the plastic came undone on the way home so now there is some dirt and stuff on the pistons, in the bores and on the...

    Injector sizing ????????

    I have a spare engine and the one in my 88 is starting to get a little old so before it completely croaks I am planning on building a 331 NA motor with a set of ported twisted wedge heads, custom cam and moving the intake mods from 93 over to my 88. My question is what size injectors will I...

    Odd ECT problem

    I am having a strange ECT problem with my 88. Here is a little back ground on the car. The car ran extremely rough at idle. When I swapped the intake for my Trackheat I found that most of the vacuum caps he had used to block off unused vacuum ports on the underside of the stock intake were...
