Re: Superchips...? I know, I know. I just wanted to know what I've got. He said it had a KB (kaboom?) chip in it, then 3yrs later he comes up with these other two! Which was awesome, because I'm a 'stock parts' guy at heart. So I really wanted the stock chip which I now have. Not that I'm...

Re: Title trouble... I'm pretty sure my state requires proof of insurance to use the bathroom at the DMV...! I don't think it matters where the insurance is from as long as you have it. When I did the XR400, my friend never insured it. I did, in my name, in my state. The DMV just wants the...

Re: Syty red top 40 lbs fuel injectors That seems cheap enough, but what do I know?! Is the red top a dead give away or is there a number that goes along with it? I ask because the injectors in my Ty have red tops, but I don't know what they are for sure. How can I tell?

I searched, I swear I did! What can anyone tell me about a Superchips chip for my Ty? The PO gave (errr...sold) me one along with the original. He's a bit of a BSer so I don't know what to believe exactly and I couldn't find anything about them, except that they existed.

Re: Title trouble... Only if they make me. I want to do it legit, but... I always consider the 'letter of the law' and the 'spirit of the law' When I can't follow the letter, I will try to follow the spirit. However the spirit is viewed differently by different people and can sometimes land...

Re: Anybody got a trick to read the block number? He also said it's been built since then because he 'lifted the heads' on it one night. It's got a factory turbo setup with aftermarket boost controler, a chip, and straight pipe exhaust....Hmmmm wonder if I know the cause!

Re: Anybody got a trick to read the block number? I'm out of town working, but I'll check it when I get home. I'm really hoping that it's a legit GM crate motor and not some "Ronalds Rebuilts and Taxidermy" stuff. He claimed it was the result of an insurance settlement for $8500 because a...

Re: Differences between a stock 4.3L and a SyTy engine... I think he was saying the pistons and main caps are different, but the cam is the same. Which it seems it isn't. Just came across differently when typed.

Re: Title trouble... Now there's a place to start. Who do I know in RI...

Re: Title trouble... Not neccessarily true, Warmpancakes. They are being closed rapidly, but there have been loop holes in the past. For example: A state like, say Louisiana might issue a "flood" title for a car that was drowned in a hurricane. But another state, say Montana, doesn't...

Re: Anybody got a trick to read the block number? Sure did, DaveP. I was looking in the wrong spot for the VIN number. I thought it was on a pad in the same plane as the deck surface behind the LH head... Kind of like the build code is on the front right. Any idea what a GM replacement...

Re: Differences between a stock 4.3L and a SyTy engine... Thanks Powercat6. That's the info I couldn't find for some reason, and then some! Wabash Cannonball 4 Ever!

Re: Title trouble... Well, there's a small light at the end of this tunnel. It might just be a reflection from my flashlight, but... I talked to the insurance company that totaled it today. They told me they submitted it to the auction with the request that it get a SALVAGE title, not junk...

Well after owning it for 3 years, I finally just got pissed off and went balls out to get the title for my Typhoon. And failed. Back story I bought it at an insurance auction with a Bill Of Sale. I have done this before and just had the last registered owner apply for a duplicate. No...

I want to take a look at the block stamping in my Typhoon. The previous owner says the engine was replaced and I want to see what it says. Anybody got a trick to see that while in the truck? It's kinda buried back there...

I'm sure this has been gone over before. I searched until my eyes burned and the search function gave me an error, but didn't find the answer! What exactly is different in the long block between a standard Z 4.3 and the syclone typhoon engine? I'm guessing the block, rods, heads, valve train...

Re: ATR High flow upper intercooler x2!!

Re: Black/black Ty on Long Island No, it's Guiseppe.

I'm doing contract work in the NYC area and I was working a location in New Hyde Park in front of a body shop. Parked underneath me was a sad '92 Typhoon. I asked the owner about it and he promised that it was going to be restored as soon as he gathers the last few parts he needs to do it all...

Re: Can someone please tell me what I bought today? pics inside I personally took it out of the ECM. It did sit outside the Ty for an hour or so. It's been covered up since then. The seller said the Ty had 30lb injectors in it, but he already sold them. It also had a 3 gauge a-pillar pod...
