    Oil Change Mystery

    Good evening all. The last 2-3 oil changes I have noticed something interesting about my oil. I haven't figured out if the color is from the lighting in my garage or what. It appears as if my oil has a slight reddish tint to it while it is draining from the oil pan but also in my collection...

    Exhaust manifold problems as well as a few others...

    Hi, so I have a 2003 pontiac grand prix se with a 3100. I purchased some larger exhaust manis from a 3.5L that were supposed to fit right on, but the front manifold's holes dont exactly align.

    Lower Intake Manifold

    What, if anything can you do to prevent/slow the lower intake manifold leak? :confused: It has really started yet, but I know its going to be coming up. I'm at 106,000 and if I were to take it in it would cost 800 bucks. How difficult is it to do? I am a quick learner and pretty handy, just...

    exhaust downpipe

    Another question for ya... If I get a 3" downpipe for my 3100, from a 3800, will it fit? on ebay they have small chopped downpipes that end before the cat, so they are relatively cheap. They have the 2 hole "oval" bolt on set up. I dont really see a difference, but maybe you guys can tell me if...

    Intake system, plenum, throttle body

    I have put in a larger tb and a custom CAI with a k&n performance filter :th_laugh-lol3:, and I want to know what would happen if I increased the upper intake plenum to a larger size such as the 3400. It will be bigger, and my thoughts are that it will slightly take away low end torque (not...

    thoughts about Cat converter on 2003 grand prix

    So I was looking into some exhaust mods and a bunch of guys had recommended just gutting out the cat converter. This would definitely give me more flow through the exhaust and I dont have to pass any emissions testing. I also know that my 2nd o2 sensor will probs throw on a check engine light...
