Re: Camaro heaven is no good...

Power Steering pump belt help!

I've done a bit of work on the car recently, and Power Steering pump replacement was on the list. When I got the pump off the car, I messed up (please don't ask!) the pulley and needed to get a...

Re: Camaro heaven is no good...

Agreed on the customer service. I've had to chase them a couple times. In my line of work (network admin) fixing the computer is easy. Fixing the customer is the hard part.

Re: Camaro heaven is no good...

I've dealt with Chuck and Camaro heaven on and off for a while now. I have been to the Tilton location. It is in effect a big 'junkyard'. My experience has been positive (though not with out some...

Re: DONT BUY SPOHN TQ ARMS!

I've got the Spohn adjustable torque arm, with xmission crossmember as well. It changed the feel and behavior of the car for the better. One common thread on this topic seems to be patience....

Re: Something is whining while in first gear, what is it?

Heh... 85 TA with a T-5... Mine makes the same noises. It's like a Batmobile with the turbines going. I've owned the car for 12 years, and it's always done it (was rebuilt about 3 years into owning...

Re: Clanking sound after long or hard drive.

I've had similar experiences. 85TA with a T-5. I liken the sound to a lift hill on a roller coaster. Sure sounds evil doesn't it? Someone told me to service the rear with GM posi lube, and then go...
