    What’d you work on today?

    Ordered the parts for the repairs and upgrade to my Caterham. The wide track kit moves the front wheels out about 1 1/4” on each side, plus I bought a set of takeoff Bilstein sport dampers from a CSR, which will be a significant upgrade fron the 32 year old Bilsteins that are on the car...

    Chevelle project update

    I think I finally got the brakes straightened out. Good pedal, stops pretty well. Felt confident enough to take it down the block at about half throttle. Shift is a little stiff, need to check the TV cable. The throttle link has a little eccentric that can be rotated slightly to give it a...

    Anyone done a 4spd auto conversion and installed a vacuum TC lockup?

    There is a way to add an LED light to indicate when the lock is on, seems like that would be the same thing

    Chevelle project update

    I thought about that solution but saved a couple bucks with the straight one 🙂. I’ll try to get a pic. Busy weekend, got SCCA events both days. Our regional exec is out so I’m taking his place Since I’m the assistant RE. Most of the responsibility for running it falls on the event chair but...

    Chevelle project update

    Installed andmwired in the thermostatic switch for the fan. It was just a matter of routing the ground from the relay through the switch. Pretty simple but I had to unwrap and rewrap part of the harness.

    Anyone done a 4spd auto conversion and installed a vacuum TC lockup?

    So I’m thinking, is it really simple like adding a vacuum switch in place of the manual switch? I had a manual switch before. I still have the Single wire plug for the transmission. I’m thinking the vacuum switch and the cruise brake switch may be all I need.

    Planet Fitness

    Planet Fitness has always been run by assholes. They have a “no judgement zone” where they harshly judge people who actually want to work out instead of prance around and eat pizza.

    Chevelle project update

    Finally got the VSS wired up. What a pain. Had to pull the dash bezel. But it works. I ended up using the power feed for the radio since I don’t plan to put one in. I had already used it for something else so I doubled up. Should be ok I think. Of course, there was a puddle of power...

    Chevelle project update

    Maybe, although routing the wire might be more difficult. I ordered a center inlet housing so it should work. Meanwhile, the fuel sender I waited 4 days to get turned out to be bad so I'm going to go to Autozone tomorrow, which I should have done the first time. I put a tester on the signal...

    Chevelle project update

    Here is why this is taking so long. Just got the temp sender for the electric fan but before I can install it and wire it up I have to replace the angled water neck with one that comes straight out because the upper hose goes right over the top of the boss I need to use. May need to also...

    Show me yer plug wire setup, pretty please

    Just wondering what others are using to keep the plug wires off the headers. I’ve got some generic 4-3-2 keepers but theydon’t tidy it up well and don’t fit right. I kind of like the ones that encase The wires in a channel that runs parallel to the valve covers. Don’t know if it alters but...
