A question for undercvppv. What was your rev limit set at? And what diameter converter did you have on it when you spun the bearing. And are you guys blocking off the oil pressure relief valve in the pan after doing the DOD and cam swap? You really didn't have a lot of miles on it for spinning the b...

Thanks Barry. I'm in the So. Cal. Area and I used New Year metal finishing in Santa Ana which was OK for the price around ($150 each). I wish they would of pressure tested it by putting a tire on it prior to powder coating them because I found two tiny pin holes in each of the wheels which had to be...

I kept the stock 8" OEM Wheels on the front that had the 235/50/18" Tires or you can go to 255/45/18s on the stock 8" rims. I had my stock steelies widened 1-1/2" on the backside and 1/2" on the front side for a 10" wide wheel. But if you include the 1/2" rolled li...

I have for sale the stock 2.92 rear diff. With 95K miles it worked Ok, just changed to a Camaro SS rear end. $150

So you need a head unit? I just discovered the siren while replacing the A/C compressor. What if you just give it 12V ? Wouldn't that work?
Thanks guys

I didn't have to pull a fuse, just hold the traction control button down for at least 5 seconds and it all turns off and its time to send those rear tires to Hell lol. But if you don't want to go sideways and out of control in a high speed turn than let the computer get you around that curve.

I just picked up a new GM compressor ($480) expansion valve a desiccant sock, O-rings. Pressure gauges tell me my compressor us tired after 97K on the clock.

Yes, good idea! I was to lazy or busy to change out a siezed up compressor on my other crap car (2015 Ford edge turbo) and paid a shop $1,450.00 to replace a $280 compressor (new not rebuilt) aftermarket unit.

let me know if that fixed the issue, I'm having the same problem I think its a damper door hanging up or so.
