• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Quick question. When changing this gasket, the push rods go through the gasket. Do I need to replace the rocker bolts or can I just reuse them? Any tips or write ups is much appreciated.

    Orifice Tube

    I am chaning my A/C compressor this weekend and I guess I need to change this as well. The accumulator looks simple enough, but can some one send me a pic for what the fitting would look like for the orifice tube in a later year grand prix. I have an 03, so obviously that would be preffered.

    Idle voltage....Alternator?

    I have been keeping an eye on my voltage ever since I changed my tensioner 2 weeks ago. I noticed while the trans is engaged the voltage drops to just above 12v. I increase my rpms to see if that would help. As of right now I am idling at 750rpms. As soon as I hit the gas it goes up to 13.8...
