Similar setups to this make in the low 500’s for horsepower and this will have lots of torque do to the custom cam design. If you stick it you should be able to get into the 10’s on 91+ octane and still get 20+ highway mpgs. The battery is centered (left to right) in the trunk because it was meant to be a street car, first. There is an external shutoff that should be good for Real Street drags as long as you have a piece of tape pointing to it because it is somewhat hidden. There is no rust in the typical body areas. I believe the rear quarters and one of the fenders have been replaced. The seals are fairly new and the glass is all good. I found a few pin holes in the trunk but stopped them with CorrosionX for now. The could easily be fixed with epoxy and repainted. The underbody is quite clean. Both bumpers are fairly new. All fluids are synthetic: oil, trans, diff, brakes, steering. I put Zero Rust (similar to POR 15) and a butyl sound deadener on the firewall before installing the AC assembly. I will include the 1 3/4 rolls that is left. I planned to do the whole interior. The transmission has a constant pressure setup so no TV cable is needed. It will shift into OD around 35-ish (if I remember correctly) which is better for MPGs. If you don’t want it in OD that early then just use the ratchet shifter. With the lock-up converter, do not shift into OD (4th) with more than 1/2 throttle. If you want to “get on it” I would keep it out of overdrive for maximum transmission life. It really needs to be repainted. A previous owner did a poor job. It looks OK from about 10 feet away. The lead lines show along the roof line do to a lack of primer or something and there is some rough body work along the rockers.. There is a ding in the drivers door about the size of a quarter and at least one good run in the clear but that is low enough that most people don’t see it. The carpet is faded and needs to be replaced. The seats and headliner are in good shape. It has an oil leak (drip) on the back side of the motor. Using a PCV rather than just a breather may fix or reduce that problem. The engine compartment wiring has been hidden (for the most part). The wiper motor was deleted so if you are in an inspection area that could be a problem. RainX once every spring will do more than the wipers ever did. I finally got this running last fall. The FAST system is still learning and so am I. The motor has never been over 5000 and the shift points should be around 6000-ish. Do to the overlap on the cam and how sensitive the IAC is I have the FAST idle set at 750 and opened the throttle blades to 750-800 (on the tach). This was the best way to get a smooth idle otherwise it would tend to hunt (surge) because the IAC is sensitive. The LS intake manifold is kind of cold blooded since it does not have any hot engine oil splashing on it. When it is cool out I have had the idle stay high because the inlet air temp sensor gets cold soaked. The idle and cruise are set at 14.4 air/fuel which is the cleanest setting for E10 which is only 6% ethanol (usually) according to reports from a person that does fuel testing at gas stations. I have new header gaskets and longer bolts because I think there may still be a leak which could cause some incorrect readings on the O2 sensor. The flanges on the collector have dead soft aluminum gaskets so I think those are good. I have receipts for most of the important items. If you do not have a laptop I can include mine, for programming the MSD. It is a clone and my intent was to remove the badges when it got repainted. When you make 500+ horsepower you don’t have to pretend that it is something that it's not. ;-) I am selling this because I was off work for nearly 6 months and my finances took a significant hit. The title is clear with no lien. |

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch
Mon, 04 Feb 2013According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.
GM recalling 1.4 million older vehicles for oil leak fire risk
Tue, Oct 27 2015General Motors is recalling 1,411,332 older vehicles with its 3.8-liter V6 yet again due to a fire risk. Specifically, there are 1,283,340 of them in the US, and the affected models are the: 1997-2004 Pontiac Grand Prix 2000-2004 Chevrolet Impala 1998-1999 Chevrolet Lumina 1998-2004 Chevrolet Monte Carlo 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue 1997- 2004 Buick Regal The fault with these vehicles is that oil can drip onto the hot exhaust manifold during hard braking, which can potentially cause of fire. In the last six years, there have 19 reported minor injuries from this problem but no crashes or fatalities, according to the company. Spokesperson Alan Adler also told Autoblog: "GM has reports of 1,345 fires in vehicles that were repaired under two previous recalls for this issue." At this time, GM is still developing a remedy for the problem. According to Adler, the company advised owners to park these vehicles outside for the previous recalls. "The cars can be safely driven. In cases where a customer reported an engine fire while driving, smoke was reported, which would be an indication of a malfunction," he said. This is GM's fourth recall for this problem since 2008, according to The Detroit News. At one point it was believed that aging valve cover gaskets allowed the oil to leak out and drip onto the manifold. A campaign in 2009 covered nearly 1.5 million of these models through the 2003 model year for the same issue. At the time, dealers installed new spark plug wire retainers as a fix.

GM is working on a remedy. The company is aware of post-repair fires in some vehicles but no crashes or fatalities. There have been 19 reported minor injuries over the last six years. These vehicles with 3.8-liter V6 3800 engines are affected: 1997-2004 Pontiac Grand Prix, 2000-2004 Chevrolet Impala, 1998-1999 Chevrolet Lumina and 1998-2004 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue and 1997-2004 Buick Regal. Including Canada, Mexico and exports, the total population is 1,411,332.
Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
