  1. Well parts will vary depending on the size of the cam and how many things you feel need replaced. The absolutly needed parts are the cam, pushrods, valve springs, and gaskets. The springs can vary some based on the cam, bigger more aggressive cams will need stiffer somewhat more expensive springs. Then there are the optional parts that would be a good idea for a higher mileage car or for added piece of mind, oil pump, lifters (but would require head removal), timing chain. If it were me I'd put a fresh timing chain, and oil pump in as these are very important and not too expensive parts. Cam $400 Valvesprings $200-$400 Pushrods $125 Timing Chain $125 Oil Pump $125 Gaskets/Fluids $200+/- As for labor you're on your own, I've never paid for work. This is all off the cuff so its just meant to be close.
  2. Yup, they are buried in front of the car right now, I was going to throw up a clean out cheap and free parts thread when I get the car out again since I'll hopefully be moving late spring early summer and I don't want to drag most of this shit around.

    Well your 96 Vette won't come up on GM's website, I'm guessing its old enough for them to purge it from the database. Sorry can't help you.

  5. Something about a C5z and turbos that never seems to work well together.
  6. Good looking forward to it.
  7. It's in the listing man. 4000-4200. This converter would be a great choice for those who want to run an aggressive cam (MS3 or 4) and maybe some nitrous. Not such a good boost converter unless its going to spool at 4500.
  8. If you are using a 4L60e behind some version of an LS motor it will work.

    I can do GM, but you didn't say what car you're talking about.
  10. I wouldn't run with out PCV, having a vacuum on the crankcase does a lot more then just vent, it keeps any pressure from building up. With pressure comes leaks, oil consumption, and poor oil control.
  11. I'm getting ready to pull my Circle D 5c (4000-4200 stall) billet faced single disk lock-up torque converter out of my Camaro and swap it to a differnt one. This converter works perfectly, but I'm changing set-ups and this needs to go. These go for $745 new, I want $400.

  12. First week of January I bought a set of 175-65-14 Bridgestone Blizzak tires on Steel wheels for my Miata. These are 4-100 wheels and I do not wish to seperate. I just paid $632 for these, but I've sold the car and they won't fit over the big brakes on the Mazdaspeed. I'd like to get $300 for these as they are 90% or better tread.
  13. You'll be lucky if its anything but a P0300.
  14. Just got home, thanks again Doc, always a good way to spend my saturday night.
  15. Its an automatic Matt, it either came with 2.73s or 3.23s, 3.42s only came in 6 speed cars. I wouldn't consider it an upgrade, but he didn't go backwards.
  16. Could always have fuel pressure dropping under load, or a MAF, but ignition is where to start.
  17. With a SS hood I wouldn't fuck with the air box, iirc the air box is different on a ram air car with a bigger opening in the front I could be wrong. I would leave the MAF sensor alone, taking out the honeycomb is not a great idea and accomplishes nothing. I would however remove the coolant lines from the throttle body and port it. Taking that ridge just before the throttle blade and smoothing it down is a good idea.
  18. I must be a full on white boy, BC doesn't include me in his colorful list.

    Hey Gabe

    I don't like dumb people, I was irritated when she wanted me to pay more after she realized that she was stupid. Too bad all I did was give her the change back.

    Hey Gabe

    I trolled $2 out of the waitress, I guess whitehall doesn't teach math. Amazing how much I like Gabe off CR.
