Re: WRX and Cobalt SS killed Well.....I took the "Slowbalt" to the track and I guess I have to admit I was wrong. It was a half second slower than I thought it might be. It went a best of 10.44 at about 69mph. The 60ft was 2.44 with no wheelspin. This was only the 3rd time I have ever...

Re: WRX and Cobalt SS killed I am planning on taking her car to the track on test and tune night sometime soon-maybe this Friday and see. I am pretty good at judging by seat of the pants feel. A friend bought a hemi Charger recently and was going on about how fast it was. I drove it and...

Re: WRX and Cobalt SS killed My wife has a non S/C SS Cobalt. It is an A4 and runs good for a 4 banger. The supercharged cars all have the big ugly ricer wing. The n/a SS has a much better looking rear spoiler IMO. Anyways, I would guess her car to be high 9's in the 1/8th mile, maybe high...

Re: Has anyone broken a 4l80e in a Sy/Ty? I have smoked 2nd gear clutches, smoked a Yank converter with "kevlar" clutch, smoked an "unbreakable" Precision triple disk verter, AND broke an input shaft in my '80E. This was in a 4800 lb Silverado with approx 750 rwhp. The tranny was rebuilt...

Re: How to aim headlights (quick and easy) I use a similar method. I get back maybe 50 feet from the outside of my shop with a vehicle that has known good lighting and shine the lights onto the wall. I park the vehicle needing adjusting about 20 ft away with the front end in line with the...

Re: msd knock alert I have one of those knock alerts. It works good, the only problem I had with it was the buzzer is a high pitched noise and my ears are bad. Thats why I bought the damn thing in the first place-cause I couldn't hear the pinging. It has lights that show the knock as well...

Re: front suspension TY vs Blazer 4wd? I am in the southeast part of Missouri.

Re: front suspension TY vs Blazer 4wd? Ok, thanks guys. I ordered the Belltech kit, front and rear. I figured the suspension would be the first place to start. I also ordered the stuff it will take to de-chrome the body. And I bought a turbo kit and the mounts, oil pan and 4l80 adapter from...

Ok, I just bought a 93 Blazer 4wd be my project vehicle. I am going to put in an AWD T case, and then put in the turboed 6 liter/4L80e. My question right now is what do I need to do to get the front end down similar to a stock TY? Any advice would be appreciated.

Re: future TY owner Thanks for the welcome. I am from the Southeast part of Missouri. I looked at just building an AWD S10 truck or Blazer but I like the Typhoon and I have learned through experience that it is just easier to buy something than it is to build it from the ground up. I thought...

Hello everyone. I just thought I would get on here and say hi. I have been lurking around for a while, but I have decided to go ahead and get a Ty so I wanted to become an official member. I have been on LS1 tech for about 4 yrs now and at one time I was #3 on the fastest truck list over...
