New Caprice - Discussion forums

Coming out of a parking lot today, I got the "something ain't right chime" followed by no power steering. These big girls are hard to handle at low speed with no power steering. It came back on and the lights went out but then they flickered the whole way home. Sometimes they flickered wit...

I'm interested in what you use for a cover, I've been tempted to cut this hole as a preventive measure so I'm not having to do extra work when or if it ever fails.

Its annoying but I'll live with it, I'm just happy to have it back! My c10 wasn't exactly ready to take over the daily driver roles when I hit the deer. But in the time the caprice was down i converted my carb back to gasoline and put stock ride hight front springs in it its a halfway decent driver ...

Done! Seems to have a bit more lopey idle compared to stock but you can only tell if you have it next to a stock Caprice to compare.

I did a full dod delete with an ls3 cam because I didn't want anything crazy. I have hp tuners and a wideband so I'll probably play around a bit before I take it to a shop to get tuned. I'm done with mine minus a few odd a ends. Hopefully I'll get it fired up tonight
