Good morning
A sunny day here in Rolla, MO. It's Friday, and I am not supposed to be this busy. Geeze, I don't have much time to surf C4guru.

Can I make changes to certain things (such as rev limiter or fuel cutoff) or would I need something more sophisticated for that? You'll need to change the ECM chip to make these changes, and this will require chip burning hardware for your 92.

thanks bog ...i hafta have me a look see at that storage bin...do remember seeing spare tire er somthin under one...for resale does z51 make her more sought?? we're not talking about the area where the spare tire is located. Look in the back area just behind your seat. There, you'll find two small doors that lift up. These are what is referred to as the Storage bins. Look on the lid of one of them and you'll see the build sheet stuck to it.

You should be worried about using "an old fan". It's an explosion hazard! If you do use an old fan, don't suck the fumes out with it. That brings the explosive vapors through the unprotected motor. Instead, blow the fumes out. It's not as effective, but at least it's less likely to go boom!

Yeah, I know- for some reason I just hate working on the doors, so I'll do the entire project all at once. Probably doesn't make any sense...

Reread the last part of the post by Notorious, quoted below. The ONLY benefit to the platinum plugs, is their longer life. There is no performance advantage. If you are a cruiser or waxer that pays to have his plugs changed, there could be an advantage to the higher priced platinums, with labor costs what they are. However, for most people I would expect to find in the tech area of a forum, tinkerers who wouldn't, couldn't, leave spark plugs alone for longer than the life of a standard plug, the standard plug will save significant money with no sacrifices. Your trusted sales person should have asked some more questions and continued his "down sell" even farther.
Quote: I use standard Autolites in the Vette. That's because I like to keep them fresh anyway, so there's no use in buying plats for it since long life is their main benefit. RACE ON!!!

Good morning, all!
Nothing super groovy for the weekend - we'll take one the 'Vettes out tomorrow morning, but it's only to go shopping ... ... mostly football watching this weekend.

[quote="CasetheCorvetteman"]
The electric water pump can still leak from the rear, and it can also leak where it mates to the block just the same as a stock unit. You are wrong in that there is no place for the Meziere Electric Coolant pump to leak in the rear as this hole which connects the manual pump to the cam driven gear is eliminated. If done correctly, you even eliminate a possible oil leak at the gear driven seal on the timing cover. And we all know that "down under" the oil is on top of the engine.

As long as you can get the specified torque on the bolts they should not loosen. Thread sealer may help with leaks, but will not maintain torque over time. Are the bolts torque to yield? That will make a huge difference. Personally, I'd have just used some JB Weld and skipped the bolts altogether :tongue:

I've done all my own for years including fiberglass.
You sure can beat the budget shops because you'll take your time. I've used the plastic stuff many times. I screwed some 1 x 2's into the ceiling so I could attach the plastic with a staple gun. The 1 x 2's are about 2 ft away from the wall so they cover the toolbox, drillpress, etc. I overlap 2 pieces of plastic by 3 ft, this eliminates having to tape the whole seam and I don't get overspray leaking out. I just use an old bedroom fan with the garage door sitting on top of it for exhaust and use 2x4's to hold down the plastic on the floor. One of the problems with this setup is getting enough light inside the "booth". I just got 2 new halogen work lites but haven't tried them yet and would probably put them outside the booth since they ger so hot. I would get HPLV guns even if you have to wait for the compressor to catch up. The gravity guns can put enough mist in your "booth" to make it hard to see. I'm using a compressor smaller than yours with a HPLV trim gun. You'll probably need the booth for your truck inrterior but, spraying trim parts, even an engine block with a HPLV can be done with just plastic on the floor and won't mess up your shop. Paints are all over the place in quality and ease of use. I liKe PPG 2 part Urethanes, they hold up really well and prevent chips better than anything I've used except Emron. The problem is that they're expensive. A quart of Corvette yellow to do my racecar was over $150 plus the catalyst. I found some new paint on the web by Kirker that I want to try. The most expensive gallon was $66 plus activator. If you want to puke, price the "House of Color" stuff. For custom work, I use AutoAirColor and to go inexpensive, I use model car paint. You can get some cool pearls by Boyd Cottington at a hobbyshop for $4 a can, spray it from the can and coat with PPG clear with no problems. Most say don't mix brands but I do all the time on custon stuff (wouldn't paint my Vette that way though). I've done quite a few helmits like this. If you're gonna primer the interior of your truck, I use a 2 part epoxy primer, it's really worth the money down the road. Try these: www.autobodytoolmart.com (has the Kirker paint but gun prices are a little high) www.spraygundepot.com ( good prices and a bunch of links) check out Devilbiss "FinishLine" guns, very good quality and reasonable. Don't get a HPLV from HarborFT, A friend got one, used it once and threw it away.

Good Morning Gurus!
Ah, FRIDAY! It would be better for me if I did not have to work tomorrow, but it is Friday nonetheless... Not much new on my end. The new job deal is looking more promising, but also perhaps further away time wise. Coupla months, maybe. Whatever. If it happens, then it is meant to be. No sense getting worked up about things I cannot control. Any of you folks have super groovy weekend plans?

That is interesting....I'm having an off idle vibration problem on my 92ZR1 & it was suggested to me by a member that the TPS could be the problem. Its my understanding that theres a carbon track inside the TPS itself & sometimes the track wears thin where it shouldnt be. Its like a rheostat (dimmer switch) & votage decreases with throttle position. Just connect a voltmeter to the TPS, then turn your ignition on, but do not start the car, then read the volts as you move the throttle blades by hand. Voltage should start at .XX and go up as you open the throttle body blades.

it makes me wonder... why would the mechanic go out of his way to use 5/16" bolts when 8mm should have been included??? In other words, it would not have surprised me if Accel included the wrong bolts. Even if Accel included the wrong bolts, the person doing the install should have figured it out as soon as they tried to tighten them up. No excuse.

The area on the TPS where the throttle spends alot of time can wear thin & cause a false voltage reading to the ECM in turn causing a miss at that position. I am working on getting a scanner to see what the readings look like.

The bottom line is that it worked out, and for that I'm pleased for the OP. But changing the thread pitch from metric to 5/16 NC could only have done more damage than would have chasing the threads back to what they were already cut to. The two sizes are virtually identical as far as diameter goes, as has already been stated here. So making the slight change to the pitch would only remove that much more metal. This makes the bolt fit a bit looser and problems more likely in the future. I would have gone to the store and picked up a 8MM thread if I had to. The issue is that the first few threads, and about 1/2 way down, were chewed up. There was no material there to get back to 8MM they were already destroyed. Since the first few threads were forced SAE, I went with SAE. I don't care what the measurement was, I just wanted them to work. I'm going to put some RTV on the threads and that should solve that. This application is one of torque, so it will torque down the way it is.

[quote]Don't know if I'll be there, got the interior torn apart to replace the rear carpet. Never thought I would have to remove most of the interior and the roof to replace the rear carpet :banghead]Shouldn't have to. When you replace the carpet, you start at the rear anyway. Just remove the trim pieces , speaker grills and slide it right out. You may have to remove the halo panels if you need to trim the new carpet in that area. Also the trim pieces in the door jamb area.
Did my entire interior(twice, once in each car) in less than an hour. Back on topic. Frank, I'll try to make it out this year, did anybody BBQ last year?

Sorry I can't help on the MP3 mod, but Dr. Don did do the CDR upgrade to my head unit at the same time he repaired the CD & cassette operation.
He also repaired the amps in my front speakers when they started popping at a later date. Quick turn around both times and complete satisfaction with the service. Loss of the cassette player in exchange for playing MP3 will come down to your call, but would trust the doc to do it with no hesitation.

After decommissioning this old girl I got out of the service.
Then joined the AF a few years later. Still in the AF. Funny part is, in both branches I've never had anything to do with aircraft. Its either been engineering or military police, go figure.

I'm getting close to sending my BOSE head unit to Dr Don for a modification. I want the CDR capability but man! $200 to play CDRs sounds extreme. Also, for another $100, they will disable the Cassette and install a jack for input of external devices such as MP3 players/IPODs.
My question is has anyone had this MP3 mod done to their Cassette player? I'd like to find out about it. I hate to lose the Cassette capability even though I almost never use that part of the radio. Feedback appreciated..... Billy

Two deluxe models will be available?
One has seats and the other a radio? BAAAAAAHAAAAAAA yr a legend mate 1 has seats Whats the base model got "Coke" crates upside down Still good 4 hippies "Cheap to run man" "Doesn,t impact as much on global warming man" I bet they sell heaps!! SERIOUSLY All jokes aside there,s a big market for these type of cars! As long as they can do 65 on the freeway,s it,s all good.

Tata Motors has unveiled the world's cheapest motor car at India's biggest car show in the capital, Delhi.
The vehicle, called the Tata Nano, will sell for 100,000 rupees or $2,500 (£1,277) and enable those in developing countries to move to four wheels. The four-door five-seater car, which goes on sale later this year, has a 33bhp, 624cc, engine at the rear. It has no air conditioning, no electric windows and no power steering, but two deluxe models will be on offer. Whats this world coming to?????? Two deluxe models will be available? One has seats and the other a radio? :shaking:

[quote="bogus"]that is a real concern... however, a touch of threadlock or even RTV would solve that problem... and I would coat those threads in RTV... just because.
Not sure I,d do that mate cause I,d hate for them to lock up before they torqued up. Since they,re blind holes. If the threads are fine now they should be all good.. Just an observation.
