    Re: Turbo XS RFL BOV

    Yeah, I was in disbelief when I saw the box!:) I threw it in the closet because it had a pretty cool design. I guess it is probably a generic Garrett box, and they just packaged the TiAl in it. There...

    Re: Turbo XS RFL BOV

    I had no idea, from all of the companies that carry the valve they made no indication that the valve was made by Garrett .
    It came in a box that said "Garrett Turbochargers"
    It is also pictured and...

    Re: Turbo XS RFL BOV

    As far as quality aftermarket BOVs go, the RFL is probably one of the cheapest around. I have heard a lot of people doing well with them.

    I have a Garrett TiAl on my GTS, and it ran me right...

    Re: What to do about my rear swaybar issue?

    Ahhh, that wasn't too long of a post.:)
    Well, according to the service manual it's an "intergral tubular stabilizer bar"
    That is of minimal importance though.
    I'm going to get a rear 1" bar from...

    Re: Installing a drain plug in an a555?

    Looks like trying to drill it with the trans installed runs way too much of a risk of chewing up the ring gear.
    My question is answered, thanks!:thumb:

    Re: Blue 87 Shelby Z Daytona-parting out car.

    Simon, have you found out anything on the crab wheels?
    I think as long as they have 225/50 tires on them they should be 6.5 wide, 6 wide *should* have 205/60s.
    I really want to ditch my lace wheels...

    Re: Installing a drain plug in an a555?

    Are you doing this with the transmission in the car, or out?

    Either way, I wouldn't mind seeing some pics of the job, if you have time.

    Re: Blue 87 Shelby Z Daytona-parting out car.

    Simon,
    Are those crab wheels 15X6 or 15X6.5?
    I've read that the Daytona crabs were 6.5 wide since they had 225/50's on them.
    Polished lip?
    Good shape? I mean not bent or anything, I expect a...

    Re: How to make a strut bar using a Z24 bar.

    That bar is going to be a lot wider, but could probably be cut to fit. Many of them are curved as well, while the Cavalier bar is straight.
    I guess that's why we're in the fabrication section.:)

    Re: What to do about my rear swaybar issue?

    When you box an axle, do you box the entire length of it like the panhard bar? Should I just box it in sections, or weld an entire length of steel to it?

    Re: What to do about my rear swaybar issue?

    Well, as luck would have it, we had an 83 Dodge 600/Aries in the shop today, so I could take a look at what my rear end SHOULD look like.

  12. Re: What is the wheel offset and best width for 24.5inch slicks.

    The factory lace wheels on my Beretta are 15 X7, and I think all of the body colored Beretta GT wheels are 7 inches wide. With the exception of the gray lace wheels which are 6 inches wide.

    What to do about my rear swaybar issue?

    OK, so my GTS handles terribly, I mean, it holds the road just fine, but the body roll is unbearable.
    So I decided to put it up on the rack, and see what I have to deal with before I decide on a...

    Re: Hooked a scanner up, weird numbers????

    I entered the VIN info (3rd, 5th, 8th, 10th digit) into the scanner. It listed an SMEC code to choose, but only listed one, I think.
    I didn't know what the code should have been, where can I check?...

    Re: Hooked a scanner up, weird numbers????

    It's a Snap On "Red Brick" scanner.
    I don't recall what the SMEC code was, all I remember is that it might have been 54XX. It's a 1989 ECM.

    When I unplugged the CTS on the t-stat to adjust the...

    Re: How to make a strut bar using a Z24 bar.

    Hey, that's a pretty good idea!
    Those bars are available at GM for about $30 new unless you can find one in a yard. They came factory in the 90-94 Cavalier Z24s, and V6 convertibles.
