I need a 3" maf pipe. anybody have one I can buy? don't care if its chrome, polished, or painted.

where do I buy one of these? I will give up whatever number I get to the person who wants it. I am looking for #1138.

i guess you could say that she found the fountain of youth. the odometer and trip odometer quit working. Speedometer, tach, and everything else is still working though. Can this be fixed, or do I have to get a new cluster? Same thing happened to my Syclone several years ago and I ended up...

someone broke into our shop and stole my dad's 1972 SS El Camino. 454 w/ 4 speed all matching numbers. The car is white with blue stripes and the dash is out of the car. the hole in the floor has been modified to fit a hurst shifter. The motor and trans are in the car, but it doesn't run...

Thanks for the explanation.

Now that TTA1138 is back on the road, does anyone recommend a place to get an alignment in the DFW area? I would prefer not to just pull up to some random auto shop.

I have always noticed a difference in the speedometer reading and my scanmaster. At 75 mph on the speedo, the scanmaster reads 70 mph. What would cause this?

I need one of these too. I have one, but I have been having alternator problems (bearing).

I have that bracket, but does anyone have another one I can buy? I need to compare to see if mine is bent or messed up. Anyone have a new OEM belt lying around they want to sell me?

The alternator on the TTA started to make a squeaking noise so I took the belt loose and rotated the pulley by hand and the bearing was trashed. So I got a rebuilt alternator from Orielly's and put it on. After about 15 minutes of idling, it started to make the same sound as the other one. I...

problem fixed. It wasn't VATS related. It had to do with an alarm system that a previous owner installed. It is now removed and no longer causing problems. I will give all details later, but now I gotta get back in the garage so I can go cruise around tonight!

Checked battery connections, they are good. Tired a known good battery, didn't change anything. Security Light comes on and then turn off indicating that the resistor in the key is read correctly. I have no voltage on the starter enable relay when I try to crank. I tried a jumper wire...

when I turn the key to start the car, the radio cuts out and the temp gauge jumps to maximum, and one of the relays pictured below also clicks (its hard to tell which one it is). the motor won't turn at all. no fuses are blown, and all electronics work when the key is in the on position...

I wish I could have made it. :(

haven't sold the TTA yet and I think I have decided to keep it. I have the AC system all apart now, but now I have some motivation to get it running today. I will definitely try to make it tomorrow. I haven't been to a meet all year. :( gotta go now, time is wasting!
