What is the best Tech/General Engine tip you
have picked up here on the Thirdgen list ?

Any specific thread you may have thought particularly useful ?

How about the most clever, "The I should've thought of that
moment" ? The most "MacGyver" posting ?

 

That's a toughie. Everything I've learned here has been amazing. Only if I found this site before I bought my car.


TRANNY BOARD
TransGo Shiftkit is the only one to buy
How to correctly pick rear gears for your cam's powerband, wish I found that out sooner.

the truth about backpressure

There's some for ya.

I knew nothing about 3rd Gens before this site, and very little about cars in general. Everyone has been a big help. I actually gave my brother advice for picking out a 3rd Gen. He's owned probably 40-50cars, built I don't know how many motors. He was looking at an RS, I know how he likes goin fast and the 305 TBI he wouldn't like.

 

My nomination is for most MacGyver posting is a toss up ....

Suspension / Chassis / Brakes > And yet another fix for weak rear discs

and

AndyZ28's door hinge fix

Both of these are so good they make me chuckle

and from the Tech general engine has got to be
R134a conversion questions

Anybody else ?

 

I'll ditto Mark's first comment.

My own tidbit:

From Motor Swap forum: V6 to V8 swap ain't worth it (unless sentimental value involved). Actually, I learned this as the V8 was dangling from the cherry picker, and the neighbor pulled up in the '87 TPI 350 'Bird he'd just bought for less than I already had in the driver and donor cars.

I also had my car before I knew about this site.

 

How about the most wore out question?

Will 4th gen seats fit in a 3rd gen??
