    Charcoal cannister?

    Where is the best place to get a breather filter...? And would disconnecting the electrical connector throw a check engine light?

    Charcoal cannister?

    I found a bad vacuum line running from the charcoal cannister to the manifold. I capped the nipple on the manifold and plugged the line running from the cannister. I've been thinking this may not be the best idea. Is it possible that with no way to release the pressure from the gas tank, the...

    T-5 fluid?

    I run GM syncromesh and it works great! Although you can buy pennzoil syncromesh which is the exact same thing and it costs less than half as much. Look for it at an autozone type store.

    People with Longtubes...

    I'll do that if I can get my hands on a voltmeter. But by the connector, do you mean the part that plugs into the o2 sensor or the connector at the main harness that plugs into the o2 sensor harness?

    Throttle Body Coolant Bypass?

    That sounds like a better idea. The Vacuum cap is really thin. I would run a hose from the front nipple to the back nipple except for the fact that I can't even feel the back nipple. It's so covered in harnesses and crap that there's no way to get there. :(

    Car stutters and is humming...fuel pump?

    As always, pull your trouble codes. A hum is normal for a fuel pump, I believe.

    3G alternator needs a new bracket?

    I would recommend lower than a 200 amp fuse. The reason being the higher the rating the longer it will take to blow even when there is a huge spike.

    3G alternator needs a new bracket?

    No, I'm serious. Will you do me this favor? I need to know if the oxygen sensor heaters turn on with the key in the ON position. I haven't been able to get anyone to do this yet. :(

    so..... what does everyone know about gauges?

    Do they usually read higher or lower than the actual RPM?

    3G alternator needs a new bracket?

    Looks fine to me. You'll need all of that stuff they show in the picture. The only bit of that stuff that you can't find at a local stores is the white stator wire. It doesn't say that it comes with that. I would e-mail them first to find out. Usually in car terms, the G in 3G means 3rd...

    Manifold help please!!!

    I don't want to be the guy who brings bad news, but when you get new heads and manifold, you're pushing the powerband upwards. You will almost for sure lose low end torque to some extent. Can't help you with the manifold choice. Just porting your lower manifold might be enough to match...

    3G alternator needs a new bracket?

    My electric drill kept running out of batteries too. It took me like 2 hours to grind everything away. Man, do I need better tools.

    3G alternator needs a new bracket?

    Yep I did the same thing. I grinded with a drill and I went through about 3 stones before it was all done. It was easy.

    Vacuum line from oil filler neck?

    I don't see how any of the oil even gets in the throttle body... it doesn't pull anything in. At least mine doesn't... maybe it's clogged?

    Throttle Body Coolant Bypass?

    I would seriously be against disabling the EGR. While you can still get good gas mileage without it, it definetly helps. At least if it's working right it will. By putting the inert gasses inside the combustion chamber, you're pretty much decreasing your displacement. Your engine will...
