Power Antenna stopped working
So the antenna is stuck down right? Do you know if it has a stainless steel cable in it? The motor is not running when it is plugged in? I have had a stainless steel cable get bound up when winding up in the plastic housing. I have also had the switch inside the antenna stop working / not...- HyperV6

1 Piece Speedometer cable
What year is your car? For 86/87 cars i think the 2 piece cable was for ease of assembly at the factory. A one piece cable of the correct length should be just fine. Use a piece of string when you remove the old cable to help get the right/correct routing. Thanks, Craig- HyperV6

Governor Springs ?
Nope. To raise the TV limit pressure are you putting washers with the spring to increase pressure? How are you doing it? Thanks, Craig- HyperV6

Governor Springs ?
Kevin, I would start out by measuring the force of the original light weight spring and the Steve V. blue spring. I did this using a 0 to 200 gram scale i bought on Amazon. I set up some parallels on either side of the scale, placed spring on the center of the scale, placed a steel ruler over...- HyperV6

What are you trying to accomplish with the lighter tension springs? Higher shift points?- HyperV6

Governor Springs ?
As stated above Steve V. I just bought some blue springs from him recently. The blue springs are about 9 to 10% weaker than a yellow governor spring per my testing. Craig- HyperV6

rear differential fluid change
I used the Felpro gasket on mine. I don't remember the part number was but bought it off Rockauto for the 8.5 rear. I only use dinosaur rear lube - not synthetic. I used 3 bottles of Lucas 80w-90. I also put in the GM posi additive since I still have the original posi unit in the rearend...- HyperV6

Power antenna problem
I think the GM Buick manual has a drawing in it that shows the wiring if I remember right. If you want to find your answer about where the power comes from. My guess is the contacts inside the power antenna are dirty. I clean them by running a business card through them a few time to remove...- HyperV6

Power antenna problem
Why not check the power antenna connector for power under the hood with a meter. I had another power antenna to swap in my car to test it. I believe the contacts / switch inside the power antenna could be dirty. I plan on opening the case and cleaning them. My antenna would work occasionally...- HyperV6

HVAC control panel rebuild kit?
I have took mine apart and cleaned the rubber diaphram. I then put a thin coat of Molykote light on the rubber diaphram and put it back together. Mine works fine now. Mine was leaking and I could hear a hiss. You can find new 9 port valves but the are around $80 - saw on Highway Stars. Be...- HyperV6

Transmission Line Size - Checking Discharge Pressure
The torque converter company request the discharge pressure from the upper transmission line going to the radiator. Thanks guys for the input. I found a fitting 1/8 npt that I can use hose on either end. I can connect the gauge to that fitting. Thanks for the info. Craig- HyperV6

Transmission Line Size - Checking Discharge Pressure
Are the stock 2004R transmission lines 5/16"? Wanting to install a "T" on the discharge line to verify transmission pressure. This is temporary install - any suggestions to just verify the discharge pressure? I don't want to cut the originals if possible. Thanks, Craig- HyperV6

Original AC DELCO Freedom Battery
I just put the original battery stickers on the backing for the old school reproduction one. If it goes bad I'll just switch the stickers back to the original battery stickers. Should work.- HyperV6
