    turbo rebuild ?'s

    everything i found when reasearching was that a 20G upgrade was in the 800. range. I specifically remember Hahn Racecraft at that price. I would be more inclined at that point to investigate to see what RPM or TurboTime would have available. I thought some of the kits were 1300.00 or so, and...

    I say this with all due respect as I have seem some incredible stuff out of your camp, but what possessed you to do this? Blown carbed, sticking throught the hood? Resale be damned, but what on Earth fueled this monster?

    SoGT BUILD... Preferred Intake?

    Good opinions marty, we are on the same page. :thread hijack on: It kills me to see the number of solid first gen s10's in my area that have the anemic 2.8 and would be killer drivers or street machines in 2wd configurations with syty based drivetrain, lowering and some wheels and tires. Or...

    SoGT BUILD... Preferred Intake?

    This is just the hot rodder in me opinion wise. I would look at the boards for a set of turbo ex manifolds and turbo. I would keep an eye out for parting out trucks and get the complete wiring setup and computer. I would then look for a spare 4.3 build it will (forged pistons, eagle rods...

    Would these bolt directly on...

    93+ camaro firebird wheels will fit the front perfectly, but need the spacer on the rear. I did a mock up with my camaro salad shooters, and a cheapy cast spacer 1" and it was damn near perfect. I have a set of the billet jobs, 1.5 on order. The camaro wheels are definately lighter. I...

    Rolling on Dubz 20" Wheel and Tire Package.

    mr (miss?) ss seems to have a finger fetish....perhaps your boyfriend doesnt do it well enough for you. There is a reason why everyone one elses post refer to IN my opinion. They are expressing their opinion and being polite, not a dick. Wheels look good. Any chance of offering a 18"...

    AC compressor froze.

    Run out to Jim's house to pick up new turbo, and look things over. I make it all the way home and to work, go to lunch and truck is hard hard starting. Slow turning over. It finally fires up to the most GAWD awful squeeling noise. I get out and pop the hood and see that the belt is turning...

    Grinding noise at start and shaft play...time for new turbo?

    Truck is a few miles away from 150K. Why wouldn't this milestone be marked with a new illness. Increasing noise at startup (rattling grinding) for a few seconds until oil pressure makes it up to Turbo. There was no very very little shaft before and noticeable now. Play is up and down with...
