Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    2000 Grand Prix GTP in Connecticut...

    Considering selling my 2000 Grand Prix GTP. The car has about 130,000 miles on it and has been owned by my family since it was new. It was my mother's daily driver until about 2 years ago when she got a new car. It's a good car and was well taken care of. I just did a LIM gasket and water pump...

    Brake Line Flare Type and Fitting Types...

    Hey All! I've got to replace the shorter rear portions of my brake lines - from around the fuel filter back. They're rotted out in the bendy spots, so splicing in a straight section isn't really an option. My plan is to make new lines and flare them myself. Can anyone tell me the standard...

    Brake Leak Near Fuel Filter, Proportioning Valves and Lines...

    Hey All! So, I Just finished the big LIM and Water Pump job over here. The motor fired right up and runs nice and smooth. I go to put it in gear to take it around the block and the brake pedal goes straight to the floor. I pump it up a few times and nothing. Go to the brake reservoir and it's...

    Can Anyone Identify Who Makes These Parts?

    Just curious if anyone knows who makes the billet "dog bones" and if they're worth the investment. They look sweet. Also, who makes the air intake or is it a custom deal?

    Vacuum Line Questions....

    So, it looks like I have all my vacuum lines hooked up fine - EXCEPT this one. I can't even remember what should go on it. I sort of remember taking something off it, but I'm not even finding anything that looks like it could plug in to it. What plugs into that top vacuum port? Also, regarding...

    Supercharger Bolt Locations - Need Help

    Hey All! I'm FINALLY finishing up this LIM gasket job. Lot's of lessons learned and lots of problems found and fixed that I didn't know I had originally. Now, I've got the Supercharger back on and I'm not 100% sure where the bolts go. :th_scratchhead: Here is what I have in the baggie labeled...

    Coil Pack Issue/Question...

    Hey All! So, I'm doing plugs and wires here as I wrap up the LIM Gasket job and I see that terminal 5 is all rusted and 2 doesn't look as shiny as the terminals on the other packs. I was going to just Scotch-Brite the terminal and reassemble, but I'm wondering now if there's an issue with this...

    Can Anyone Identify Who Makes this Hood and Fascia????

    Hey All! The hood looks like it might be the SLP one, but I don't know who makes the fascia. Also, are the effects around the side stock or are they aftermarket also. Thanks! Adam

    Oil and Filter Questions...

    Hey All! I have two questions related to oil and filters. 1) I know you can use a filter for a 4.3L on the 3800 to get a little extra capacity. Does anyone have a Fram or GM part number for a correct filter? 2) I just did a LIM gasket here and want to run some oil for a few hundred miles or...

    Radiator Drain Plug Question/Options...

    Hey All! I'm wondering if there are any options for a better radiator drain plug than the stock one on my 2000 GTP. The one that came with the car is below. Obviously, it's designed for a 1/4 inch extension to turn it (it also appears to have a slot for an Allen Wrench a little deeper inside.)...

    Sealing Corners on a LIM Gasket Job...

    Hey All, I'm doing a LIM gasket on my 2000 GTP. Someone I consider highly reliable told me to use the GM Pipe Sealant with PTFE on both the LIM to Head bolts AND the corner seals. It seemed a little odd at the time, but I went with the advice. Back in the day when I was playing with Small Block...
