    Any Lithium battery users?

    I'll try one when the price gets down in the $300 range. I run one in my motorcycle. It was $150 shipped. 350cca. It can't weigh 2 lbs!

    New member, first time poster, longtime GN owner.....could use a little help

    My original MAF unit lasted almost 30 years. Lol, more reliable than that? Not to argue, but how much better can a car run? And what does leaded gas have to do with it? My drivability is perfect with the stock MAF sensor, turbo tweak chip and bolt-ons. Also 26+mpg on hwy. Maybe someday I'll...

    New member, first time poster, longtime GN owner.....could use a little help

    Surprised no one mentioned Cottons reman mass air flow sensor. Cost more but exact same as original. If you have your original there is a core charge. Worked perfect on mine and didn't have to do the translator. Good luck.

    coating

    DIY ;) remove downpipe, sandblast with coal slag(black beauty) or aluminum oxide. DO not touch with bare hands after blasting, use powder free latex gloves. Next, blow off with compressed air. Finally, use the ceramic 2000 deg black VHT. Give it a few light coats, no runs. DO not allow to dry...

    Considering Cadillac CTS or CTS-V... Any input?

    09 V gets about 20mpg on the hwy, maybe 21:biggrin:Around town, not so good. They *seem* to have a few fit and finish issues, like most cars. The drivetrain as been pretty bullet proof. At least no one is pulling it and dropping in a 350 small block and turbo 400;) Ross

    powermaster

    I "passsed" on two GN's because the owner converted to vaccum. My powermaster made it twenty four years before it was replaced. The acc. ball and switch not so much....:p Whens its working correctly it is a great system IMO. Never put off repairs if it starts acting up,,,, brake light, hard...

    can pipes be powdercoated w/ body filler on them

    you can use JB weld as "filler" then coat over it without any problem. Also a product called *metal lab*, a air cure(no mixing) filler. Good luck! (only applies to powder coating, ceramic a no go) Ross

    Value of 1991 Syclone?

    But,,,,, price seem good for how you described it. Very fun trucks. Is the cladding unfinished or painted? Definately do the carfax, and read up(as others mentioned) on syty.org Lots of great guys and info there.:) Ross

    Value of 1991 Syclone?

    Dial-a boost would concern me. These trucks rarely blow head gaskets. They bend rods:( IMO the stocker(is that a word) the better. Mine has 35K as of today.:biggrin: Also, not as easy to mod compared to GN's. Mine went 13.4 stock. Ross

    i powder coated my intake over the weekend

    just a fyi. The metallic silver colors are *recommended* to be clear coated. The silver may turn or oxidize if left uncleared. No first hand experience with that though because I always clear coat my silver pieces. Yellowing clear coat is a non issue IMO.:) Going on 4 years since my upper/lower...

    new ebay headers

    yep, just because the stockers *can* run into the 10's doesnt mean there is not some performance to be gained from headers.:biggrin: IMO btw, my ebay headers are still under the work bench too. Ross

    which car lifts

    I'm about to buy one as well. Most 4 post lifts range from 2-5K depending on options,brand,location of build(china or US). I've narrowed it down to a rotary revolution(china) 9000k lift or a Superlift black max(US) 7000k. Both cost about the same. Revolution comes with casters and free shipping...
