    I hope your situation improves. You're out of the hospital. That's a good start.

    I stood it on its end for tear down. I didn't think it was that bad to work on. Too bad the one I was working on was thrashed. Post 64 for pics..... Post in thread 'Sean's 78 Camaro Z28' https://gbodyforum.com/threads/seans-78-camaro-z28.63930/post-562767

    You don't think it will fit under a cowl hood?

    It's been my understanding that the key is don't Rev the R4 past 4500 RPM. I haven't personally experienced bad service out of an OE R4.

    It's a little surreal seeing pillow top seats in a car with a cage. Safe and comfy?

    It really wasn't that bad. Pull the plug wires off the coils, pull the coils as an assembly and then 4 bolts and the cover is off. Cleaning them up was the biggest chore. Dad didn't realize they should be bare aluminum. He thought they were painted black, if that tells you anything.

    Took good Friday off. Went to Dad's and replaced the valve cover gaskets on his 06 Sierra this morning. It's had a pretty significant oil leak for the past few years. A few months ago I replaced the oil cooler block off plate on the oil pan. Dad says it's much better but I'm not so sure. I'm...

    They're doing away with the annual safety inspection here in Texas. If the car/light truck is between 2-24 years old and you live in one of the most populous counties, one will still have the annual emissions test. I'll be moving out of Harris County (Houston) next year so my vehicles have...

    The Seville are similar but not the same. We bought a Seville rear for the brakes when wanting to convert my brother's 78 Z28 to rear disc. They are the same style but don't interchange.

    Yeah, he welded rear frame rails into that thing so it has seen salt in the past.

    REGAL Rare??

    Beautiful car! Engine swap looks great. What was the original engine? Are you running the Saginaw 4 speed that came in it?

    Grand Am, Lemans and Malibu parts

    Probably wood grain. I plan to put an engine turn Decal on it to mimic what was in the Trans Am. It would be a shame to cover up a silver bezel. I'd be open to an uncut shaft radio bezel. I don't have my heart set on using a single din radio. I'd just like something in nice shape without a...
