Oh, they all do that eventually... I've had three of these. The rear control arm bushings allow the wheels to tilt in under load; and they're about impossible to replace. Still, bump for a cool project. I have a spare digital a/c head for this if whoever buys it needs it... they fail constantly.

That'd usually be the case.

^^ Win.

No way.. Kitt would've cleared that overpass.

It's not Nagaro blue with Porsche brakes, is it? I'm afraid I don't have much to add that you haven't already figured out; sounds like a ground problem to me. Unless of course it's the car I was thinking of... in which case you should sell it and forget you ever saw it.

You suck.

Yeah, I snapped a picture of Brady driving past me when I was on my way home the other night. Awesome car. I revved my engine at him, but I'm pretty sure he couldn't even hear it. I think maybe my Ford Five Hundred scared him off, LOL

Say it ain't so...

Win.

Can't believe I'm going to have to be the one to do it.... And yeah, I'm being serious. I actually like that song.

Thanks for the responses, turns out our help desk IS retarded. Apparently, the real cause of the error 619 I was getting is that my username and password wasn't in all caps.

My company issued laptop will let me check email and such via a wireless connection at home, a hotel, etc. However, to connect to our home office's AS400, I have to use a 800 dial up connection. Problem is, my home phone is through WOW. According to our help desk, the dial up won't work over a digital line. Anyone know a way around this? I know it's a pretty stupid problem to have; after all, why would you need dialup when you have a broadband connection...

Glad we could help... Thanks for the thumbs up!

This was my original thought. I just don't deal well with people belittling myself or others that I care about; especially without cause.

I had considered that.

Okay, I'll try to make this as short as I can. My wife had an extremely minor fender bender about 5 months ago; less than $2000 damage to both vehicles combined, no injuries, etc. Anyway, per my instruction she pled not guilty to the ticket, so she could plead the ticket down to a 0 point violation. We apparently misplaced the notice of her court date, because she missed it. About a month ago, I asked what ever happened about that ticket, and she said she had forgotten about it. There was a warrant for her arrest, so I went downtown, paid to have the warrant removed, and set a new court date. Today was the new court date. The woman who was involved in the accident showed up in court with her witness, i.e. passenger. She proceeded to tell the judge and anyone else who would listen that my wife was a "deadbeat" because our insurance company had only paid 65% of her damages, and she planned to sue my wife to recover the money she believes she's owed. The judge asked my wife to describe the circumstances behind the accident, to which she did.. in the process describing how neither of them saw each other and the other party was in her opinion, driving too fast. The woman interjected, and said that my wife had a "problem with telling the truth" and her witness could verify she was going less that 10 MPH. She went on to say that she had missed two days of work because my wife was irresponsible and missed her first court date; and planned to recover her lost wages also. The judge told her she isn't entitled to anything other than her $8 from the court. My wife said nothing, and the judge imposed a $150 fine. I wasn't there for this, and my wife called me crying about how humiliating it was for this woman to call her a liar and a deadbeat in front of a judge and court full of people. I, of course understand that the people in the courtroom could care less; especially considering the more serious reasons most of them were there. Now I'll get to my question. I know that statements made in a court of law are covered under absolute privilege, and exempt from being slanderous statements. Can we file suit even without a real legal basis? Don't get me wrong. It's not about money, and matter of fact... I'd sue for damages of $1 just to make her haul her fat ass down there for a judge to laugh us out of court. I know it sounds really stupid, but people like this really make me angry. We had an accident for heaven's sake; and this lady wants to make a federal case out of it.

Unfortunately, the 86 is kind of a bastard child in the performance mod category. I own an 86 convertible, and here's the major problem with these mods. The 86 doesn't have valve reliefs in the pistons, thereby severely limiting cam and head choices due to piston to valve clearance issues. Save yourself the hassle and have the bottom end done, or start with an 87+ engine. And you'll be much happier in the end if you stick with the EFI. These cars can make a ridiculous amount of power with it... even reliably.

I'm looking for turbo crossover pipe/manifold(s) for a 1990 Pontiac Grand Prix McLaren turbo. No, I don't have one. Yes, I'm doing something incredibly gay and futile. It seems people have snatched up what few Turbo GP parts there were to begin with, and I'm not even really able to find a heck of a lot of information on what I'd need to pull this off. I'm looking to turbocharge a 1990 Chevy Beretta. Why? I don't really know. It's a yellow 5 speed Pace car with a 3.1 V6, just like the one a friend of mine had when it was new and we were younger (and like one I used to have but my old one was an automatic). It kind of holds a special place in my heart, and I plan on using it as a daily; but it's so gutless I'm not sure I can handle it. I know the easy way is to swap in a 3400 from a newer GM vehicle, but a turbo seems much cooler. (And, more like a giant waste of time and money... which I am well accustomed to.) Any help is appreciated; though the "You're a retard" and "It'll still be a slow pig" comments are already realized... so you can save them.

Nope, not Mike Wolfe. His name is Mike Herman, but he's been out of the game for quite some time. He did train at Westside Barbell as well, though. I was just kidding about the shirt... I was only making light of the fact that I can't pick up diddley anymore. But thanks for the offer! Now, if you know how to break lifelong unhealthy eating habits...

I had a friend school me on these shirts not too long ago. He's a giant mofo (I'm talking about Big Herm for Mike and those who know him) 5'10, 315lbs with a raw max of 580. With an Inzer shirt, he's put up over 800 pounds. That shit's just crazy. When I was in high school, I used to bench 335 at a body weight of about 270... I know, not impressive. But the last time I actually tried (a few months ago) I failed to lift 285; at a body weight of 319. Thank you, McDonald's, and being a lazy fat ass. I'm buying a shirt. Just to protect my pecs, of course. And my pride. LOL

Small fluted screw extractor. Seat in the hollow center with a hammer, (not too hard) and turn out with a tap wrench. (I made this sound easier than it is.)

Thank God. I referred people to the old shop on Shoemaker all the time; but first, I referred them to Vance's for a bulletproof vest. (For the drive there.)
