    Registry 8x Series V8 Swaps

    I was also running on the cheap as possible side, i tried to fit the gm cluster in there but it wasn't going to work without hacking up the whole dash, and then you would still have to live without your blinker/ high beam/ odometer/ fuel tank level and other things. The problem is really the...

    Build LS80 Build by Back Bay Customs

    I am currently driving it with no lift and it doesn't touch. I am not sure that it wouldn't hit if jarred in the wrong direction though. At the closest with passenger wheel stuffed to full flex, there is <1/4" to the tranny pan. When i welded the motor mounts up i put the engine to the farthest...

    Well, the gauge can be actuated by sucking on it. I'm not sure how much vacuum it takes but i would guess around 15" Hg. Regardless if they are junk or not, they do indicate that there is a vacuum, so that means there is a pressure drop across that point in the intake tube to the atmosphere. I...

    To people using the factory intake, I have a stock lq4/4l80 and I'm running the factory intake with a safari snorkel. I had the chevy air filter indicator and i decided to put it on the intake pipe just to see... After not even a full throttle run i maxed out that gauge, not sure how much vacuum...

    s I had to take off my DC driveshaft and go back to the stock one but other than that, the axle can cycle all of the way to the frame without hitting anything.
