I bet He's got a little silencer for the tip... but I doubt it'll help. The resonator (how do you say/ spell that lol) is gutted too.. It's got a spot for a stock cat, but a fabbed up pipe's bolted in it's place. I doubt the melted cat I have will make a difference, so hopefully I can afford a borla muffler to throw in the middle. That seems to be a good choice by other forum memebers. I'm totally getting it TOMORROW!

READ- Crit's interested in them. I'll be blocking off the OMP and premixing when that motor goes in. We weren't talking about the injectors silly.

And Crit- I got your message and PM. I'll try to get those off of that motor tomorrow morning/afternoon. And I just remembered- I've got an S5 electric OMP with the lines sitting on my stereo like 8 feet from me- would those work instead? I mean I can get the S4 ones but probably only the 2 that hook onto the LIM. The ones that go to the injectors on the block- one's snapped off like I mentioned, and I tried getting the other off and I can't get a thin enough wrench to unscrew the injector, if that would even work at all. Call me tomorrow after 10, or I'll give you a call towards the afternoon, and I'll meet you somewhere. I'm hopefully picking up that exhaust tomorrow evening and I've got to go 400 to exit 7, so we could meet then if you weren't working or anything.


That's too much typing Night ya'll.

 

Ray, thanks for pulling for the lions. Not a good day. I think I taught my wife and daughter a few new words watching that game.

Anyone interesed in a 12A air cleaner upgrade? I have 2. I have the RB white cannister for Nikki. It looks like the RB Holley air cleaner cannister. This will require some plumbing work, if you still have the air pump and rats nest. I also have a blue lid for the stock cannister that is open all the way around. It comes with a stand off that extends the center stud of the Nikki carb to attach the lid. I think this was made my Rotary Performance. Both are free to a good home.

 

Ill take one of those Mike.... Is there anything you need?

 

the rubber for both the fender and door and the coolant line I need is the molded hose coming off of the heater core to the oil cooler.

 

Got 'cha down Chris. Sounds like we'll be having a parts swap fest this Tuesday.

 

No one has a window assembly by any chance? Power window motor driver's side, or the whole metal frame thingy and glass with the manual handle? I NEEED a way to close that window.

just ANY full system that gets a window up and down in a first gen, SA manual, FB manual, FB power anything I need it

 

I have an FC manual window regulator if you want to try that. Wasn't it a sock that you were using?

So I got some progress done on the 7 today. The door is fixed, so my passengers don't have to pretend it's the General Lee when they get in through the window. I fixed the lock and replaced a spring so it's working perfect now. I still can't get the passenger window switch to work, so I've got some paper clips in the connector so I can move it with the drivers switch... I've got the subs out now and I'm waiting for 6:30 to get here so I can go ahead and head to get that exhaust...

 

I just came from the Buford Pullapart, Chris, and they've got 2 FBs with complete doors. Get on down there.

I didn't know you needed other stuff, but I also got the coolant line you need, so I could still keep my spare.

 

dizzam...are they ravaged?

 

Crit- I got some line that'll work for the OMP from Zach. It's yours, but you can still have the others if you want. See you tomorrow.

And Ahh I got the exhaust... cleaned it up a bit and took some pictures.








Yes, all that's layed out in my bedroom Hopefully I can get it on Sunday, too.

Another question- would there be any benefit to put a stock gutted cat in place of the cat-delete pipe? I'm talking sound wise. And it'd be temporary.

 

Brett could you reshoot that last shot, just lower your hand a bit?

Nice exhaust!! If you already own the gutted cat that would be best.

Chris I'll bring along any stuff I can find that might help with your heating and cooling problems, including making another search for that driver's side window regulator that should be out there someplace. I can't believe you are still managing to get around without a heater or driver's side window.



Also if you could bring your camera along for some night shots, mine doesn't do very well after the sun's gone down.

 

I second that motion!

Hey Brett, sell me that speaker box. Just the box, no speakers!

 

Oh you old perverts

I'd totally sell you the box if you had a different enclosure i could use that would fit 2 10's (together or seperate, doesn't matter) and allow me to have a rear strut bar.


That was before the black interior... and it fits perfectly between the strut towers

 

Brett we're waiting.

She's on your wall after all.

 

All I have is a truck box for 2 10's thas why I need a new box....I have a bandpass box for 1 10, but my speaker is just too gangsta for it. BTW you need to flip the box around so the sound bounces off the back glass... It will at least DOUBLE the output

heres my truck box

 

Ehh I don't really get too 'crunk' with it after I got my first noise violation ticket It was turned like you said, but when I put the black interior in I put it in like that since I think it looks better. It only takes a minute to turn it around though, so if I've gotta get all 'gangster' I can If I find a smaller box or one that will give me a little bit of hatch room and allow a strut bar to fit, I'll totally sell this one to you. If you know anyone with something like I'm looking for LMK.

And her name's Anya. She'll be going away soon whenever I buy another Maxim calendar for this year... Don't let Cathy see!

 

Does that make us the OPTA now?

 

Kevin, I'll bring the air cleaners. You can take your pick.

Donnie, I'll take the FC oil cooler and lines. We'll have to work out something with Billy on the storage charges. Billy, look at it this way, when I install the oil cooler I'll need a filter pedestal. Sounds like some business for ReSpeed.

 

Would that be "old people" or "old perverts" Crit? I've always counted girls as guys too, so we don't need the politically correct "people". And not ALL of us are perverts. I think. (Not sure about Holly).

Chris I got the lines and the side moldings, but still can't find that power window crank motor. Sorry. Also I have a complete set of stock hydraulic brake lines in good shape, purchased new a few years ago for my Tan One and with modest mileage, if anybody wants them (I've since become addicted to braided stainless).

How 'bout this weather?? I've been outside all day.

 

Seriously? It's been raining on and off like crazy over here. Hopefully I'll be able to get started on the exhaust tomorrow. Anyone wanna help? I could totally borrow a family friend's car lift to do it, but my old exhaust is one huge 'Y' since the PO decided to weld the whole thing together, and I've got to do it at home so it can stay in one piece. And I want to be able to put it back on if I've got to.

And GL with the lines Crit....

 

If you want to bring it over to my house, I have a dry place to work, Im not far, Im in Flowery Brach

 

Yeah my gravel and un-level driveway doesn't sound too pleasing to me... but I'm gonna give it a shot. And like I said the old exhaust is one huge piece. If I can't get it though, I'm going to either use the friends lift to get it all on and chop the old up so it'll fit in a truck or something. Thanks for the help though... If it were something smaller I'd totally take you up on that. Ever tried changing a whole diff. in a gravel driveway? lol

 

Seriously, so sick of this damn rain.

Tuesday should be interesting. I forgot I have no wipers on the FB......

 

Funny thing was, when I saw that pic I was thinking the same thing, that Brett needed to move his hand down a bit. Don't include me in the pervert class though.
