Re: Trailer hitch
There seems to be someone near Detroit that is making or distributing 2 inch receiver hitches for Caprices and SSs (possibly G8s). Info in Facebook "Chevy Caprice PPV - Owners & Fans" section. Zachary Watts is the poster. $350 plus shipping. Some notables: behind license plate, A500 1...

Re: 3D printed parts
Looks like I should be on the forum more! Thanks for posting up my site and for all the orders. Looks like the console plugs need some tweaks so they aren't so fragile, but they'll be on the site soon for $20 shipped per set of 4. I personally have a 2014 so making parts for that is easier but I'm a...

Re: 2014 Mystic Green with Misterious Issues
No pictures, the lifter was just slightly collapsed and the guide slots were blown out. Only a few grooves on the came so nothing detrimental.
I was able to source a stock cam and lifter from dealerships locally. With my GM discount it made it worth just doing that over doing a delete.

Re: 2014 Mystic Green with Misterious Issues
So it turned out to be a collapsed lifter that was spinning in the guide. 2 late nights replacing the cam and lifter and shes been running like a top! Love this thing! Putting a hitch on this weekend and then maybe looking into a rear view camera from a 2015...

Re: 2014 Mystic Green with Misterious Issues
Perform a running compression test on that cylinder on #1 cylinder and see what you come up with when compared to #3. The 2nd Caprice that I picked up had a misfire on #4 cylinder. It was quiet but it had a misfire on that cylinder and smoked like heck out of the passenger side exhaust. I did a run...

Re: 2014 Mystic Green with Misterious Issues
That's good insight! Can you educate me on the VLOM? I'm not familiar with what that is or how to check it's functionality. I'll perform a running compression check and rocker movement next time I'm at my shop.

2014 Mystic Green with Misterious Issues
Hey everyone, picked up my first Caprice last week, a 2014 9C1 in mystic Green with a couple issues. I've tried a bunch of stuff to fix it but hoping you all can help me out. It has a CEL for misfire on cylinder one and it is also blowing oil smoke out of the exhaust, mostly on the driver's side. Th...
