So, I just came back from the wiki page for camaros and I noticed that the fifth gen has a 6 speed manual available for the 3.6 DI engine, which is a 60šV6, but is it backward compatible with the older stuff we have?

I hope they have the same bellhousings.

I want a 6 speed in my blazer, but a t56 is just a shitload of work. Another option would be the gearbox out of a 6 speed supra, but is just as much of a workaround.

What's the best way to remove tree sap easily? Tried the Turtle wax spray crap. Wouldn't touch it.

Hey guys got a question for you. I have a 1995 chevy bretta 3100 and i cant get it to start without press the gas pedal down all the way. I change the fuel pump got the fuel pressure i need. I changed plugs and wires and it started right up no gas. I let it run for five to ten mintues, and it wouldnt start without the gas pedal down again. I was thinking coil packs but I dont no for sure what do you guys think.

Hey guys I migrated here from GA owners club since no one there has done what I'm trying to do. First off I appreciate any help anyone can give me, even if it's a small tip. Well here's the problem: I'm swapping my old engine out of my '03 GA for a '06 lx9. After a bit of consideration, I'm seriously thinking of using the uim on the lx9 instead of using the old 3400. Basically, the only parts I would retain is the fuel rail and injectors from the 3400. I've heard the increased mpgs range from 3-7 from using the new uim, Is this true? I know I will need a 2005-2006 pcm for the electronic throttle control, crank sensor (so I don't have to use the external), and probably a few other things. I'm guessing this means I will also need the wiring harness. I believe the old BCM should be fine with the new pcm right? Is there anything else I need that I don't realize? And is there any good reason not to pull the pcm from a junkyard? Thanks for all the help guys, I really appreciate it!

John and I have been working on a 96 Achieva for a friend and every time we fix something, something else breaks. Now it needs a heater core...right after I got done tuning it!

We are either gonna have to keep fixing it, or part it out so he can buy my cutlass. So here is what we have.

The original owner had a rebuilt trans and new torque converter installed. A week later, the cam snaps in half and the engine is junk. Friend buys the car, and I put together a 3400 out of what I have here. Honed the 3400, soda blasted everything, tanked the block, new cam bearings, rod bearings, main bearings. Sportsman ported 3400 heads with 3500 valves and LS6 springs, low mile stock cam, new timing chain set, new gaskets, ported manifolds and it has the 99 large port 3100 upper on it. 00+ 3400 injectors, 55psi regulator, 97 PCM tuned. Low mile lifters too.

Engine and Trans: $1000 OBO. Very serious about the OBO part but we need to sort out the future of this car quickly. Either we fix the heater core and replace the fuel pump assembly (it was fixed but it really just needs to be replaced), or we sell off these parts and he buys my cutlass.

Anyone else play with the Google logo today? Pretty cool, albeit weird. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, goto www.google.com and move your cursor over and around the logo...

Got me an old Jet woodworking band saw. After replacing the 5" pulley with a 10-incher, replacing the 1.75" pulley with a step pulley with 4 steps from 1.75" to 4", and a trip to cubecart for a custom blade, cutting header pipes has suddenly got a lot easier, w00t!...

Lately I'd been toying with the idea of EBAY turbocharging my 1985 fiero. it's a stock 2.8 that's about to receive a 4 speed manual trans. my question is, would it be worth it to turbo a stock 2.8? what size turbo should I use if I do it? I'm gonna do it on the cheap if I even do it. also, would an '85 2.8 have a roller cam? what about an '87?

Thanks in advance-

Eric

So, I have decided to keep my gm truck all (mostly) GM and have decided to ditch megasquirt for engine management and I will be using a gm computer.

I am wondering what my best bet for a computer will be though.
You guys are tuning masters and seem to know which ecm works best with each setup, which is why I ask for this advice.

The truck: '89 blazer 2.8/t-5

What will be in it though is a 3.4/3500 which will start off naturally aspirated, and recieve a turbo later in its life.

My computer is a macbook pro running snow leopard if it makes a difference with the tuning programs out there.

With the ecm, I wish to be able to run sfi, but as I know it, OBD-1 never ran SFI and doesnt have that capability.
And I dont wanna get into the big mess that comes into tuning OBD-2

As my truck is a manual, auto tranny control isnt necessary, so that leaves me with the question:
What ecm would be the best for my application, and what would be the best way for me to tune it?

Have a 91 V6, 3.1, from a Camaro in my 47 chevy, was told it was a 700R,(4L60 a different case) have the kit for the lock up torque converter, Electrial plug is OK but where you put the new sending unit, by the servo, the plug they tell you to take out isn't there? There is a plug on the other side of the trans, a little higher up, the plug has a machineed end on it. Anyone know anything about this?? :huh:

Does anyone know of a site online that has a Blowup and the P/N's for the 3100?
Example: I'm looking for the O-Ring P/N that is on the coolant tube
coming out of the Thermostat Housing.
A Dealer close to me use to print them out for me but they were closed.
