Working on the cars today, had to switch out the alternator on the GTZ....man it was a biitch!!!

AS FOR THE CAVY...IT WILL TAKE A BIT LONGER THAT EXPECTED. I STOPPED BY AT THE MACHINE SHOP TO SPEAK WITH THE OWNER. TURNS OUT HIS GUYS OVER BORED THE CYLINDERS ON THE LD9. I DID NOT INSTRUCT THEM TO DO THIS. HE IS NOW LOOKING FOR A NEW BLOCK FOR ME AT NO COST AND WILL COMPLETE THE 2.3 OIL PUMP SWAP ''AGAIN'' AT NO COST.

ON WITH THE TONS OF PICS!!!













FINALLY GOT THAT SUCKER OUT!

CAM TOWERS WILL NEED MODIFYING BECAUSE I PLAN TO RUN THE HO CAMS



AND OF COARSE THIS WILL BE THE DECIDING FACTOR....LOTS OF TUNING

On the cobalt ss yes they all have electric power steering.

Those are not coolant lines that's the fuel pump for the direct injection. It's driven by the intake camshaft.

Those are not knock sensors they are sensors for the VVT

That's a 2010 and it has the RPD (display) stock. It shows you a whole bunch of stuff.

Sharp looking SS. I almost thought of buying one of those after I sold my Impala SS.

The black cylinder is your evap canister if I remember correctly.

You remembered right 88_GTU. That's the old vapor cainster.

you have that much spark advance because your crusing hence the car is making you save fuel. As son as boost go up it should go down.

Thanks for the info...Im aware of the RPD display LOL
