LS-7 lifters. I got mine from Scoggin Dicky for $100.

They're cheap, they work, and their available.

You simply re use your guides and spider.

Do you have a link for this? I can't seem to find them.

Not to highjack the thread too much but. I just did a complete brake job for a younger guy who bought a 94. The car's got 71k miles. It needed: tires, brakes with rotors and plugs and wires. The seats are totaled but the carpet and rest of the interior will cleanup nicely. The engine is crudy and has the normal oil weeping but no leaks on the ground. 2 marks on very nice paint. Engine runs nice.
He paid $7,100 !
He's going to put about $2,500 in it right now before getting wheels and exhaust. He's gonna have a really nice car for his $9,600.

And I get dumped on for asking 9K for mine on other sites. The seats are in great shape, so is the paint minus a little rash on the front and it has a brand new 6 speed and clutch. New tires to boot too! I would have though that people would be beating down the doors for it but they are not. Hell at this point I would take 8 grand and not think another second about it.

I'd call them and ask them. If they hee-haw around the answer, then you'll know for sure to steer clear. I'd be afraid they were Proforms or some other Chinese junk.

Reckless lenders... What about reckless buyers? I suppose it is easy to fall for gimmicks like interest only loans and ARMs when you really want to get yourself into a home.

I don't follow politics or financial news very much, so I am very uninformed here, but I sure hope whatever actions are taken do not penalize or punish folks like me who went for the standard fixed rate mortgage, and can make their payments.

I have been flying airliners for 20 years and that scared me. Some pretty crappy techniques there. I am amazed the gear held up through some of those crab landings. A couple of them were nicely done.

This is THE event in the Mid-Atlantic. Hell, it's one of the best events period.

I wish we could make it...

We went to the Micosoukee Indian Resort to play games of fortune. I won 200 bucks on a nickle slot machine. Then I sacrificed my winnings and more while I waited for my wife. She was playing cards in the poker room. That's why it's a game of fortune. I play the games, they make the fortune.

Take one look at the overall content in threads and you can guess why Im not posting much anymore. New group of people buying these things and hacking the living crap out of them...Dont really have anything constructive to say, not learning much.
Give out good advice and some dumbfark tells them what they WANT to hear anyway even if they know the info is wrong so whats the use? Let them eff up their cars I could care less.
Funniest part is the pissing contest these "thread readers" and self procalimed experts (which Ill never be) who have yet to turn a wrench...
I give up.

I think its forums in general..Im on another one and usually I have to answer all my own threads as I cant get any info or answers other than "Go do a search"...But damn, start a thread about your favorte color or the biggest fart you had in your car and it goes 3 pages.

Maybe Im just burned on the web in general and need a break, my attitude sucks.

Welcome, Smack!!

In my heart it does bug me to see bad grammar, but I choose not to respond over getting on sombody's case. Everyone has things they do not do well.

I let a lot of things go too - I understand what you're saying, but this was just brutal. Hey, everyone makes mistakes! I'm a poor typer myself, but I always re-read my posts quickly and try to catch and correct my mistakes. But this was just so far beyond a few mistakes, and it culminated in his last line in which he mistakenly (I think?) indicated that he had "rode his girlfriend and that she enjoyed it".

I just couldn't let this one go. It was the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back

Well I went to the ER last night and they gave me some antiboitics so I am feeling much better know. I think that is all I really needed in the first place but the first doc did not think so I am still congested but I can deal with that.

On a '96 I'm not sure what you might run into re/ the crank sensor. But I do know that if necessary, it can be eliminated and programmed out of the PCM. Other than that, once you eliminate the water pump drive, you can use the Cloyes 9-3145 which is under $100. It's what I have in my '95.
