Woohoo! That did the trick. I must have done it differently last time, the fans stop when the car is off now. I'm using a switch that lights up when it's on, so I should hopefully notice and turn...

Your brain is correct. I distinctly remember that the last time I did this (2006?) that I shut the car off and the fans kept running. I had to open the hood and disconnect my wire. This time I'm...

Thanks!
I vaguely remember sticking a pair of wires into one of the wiring harnesses for one of those relays. For ground do I just need to go to the chassis or do I need to connect to the negative...

how do I force the fans on? 1990

My dash is dead at the moment, and it will probably take me a month or two before I can fix it. But without the speedometer the fans never come on. I know there is a way to stick a wire in there...

I've done a little homework. From what I understand the harness in any Automatic Corvette from 84 through 96 should use the same Neutral Safety switch, which means the...

Hey folks,

I need the pigtail (wiring harness connector) that the Neutral Safety Switch plugs into. I can get a partial dash harness for about $75.00, but all I need is that one plastic piece.

Thanks gentlemen. I have the service manual. I'm assuming when you say FSM you mean the GM service manual.

So (you might remember), my buddy was driving my 1990 coupe from Florida to Sacramento for me using the four month scenic route, when he broke down in San Antonio and couldn't get the car started. I...

When the time comes, I will probably be able to do the swap myself. For some reason I was thinking California wouldn't let me do an LS swap.

The cheapest "complete" LS1 I see on eBay is $5000. ...

Haha, the numbers for his car come from car and driver magazine. He isn't making it up.

Of course, if I put a rear spoiler on my car and some stickers from Japan, I will be able to do 0-60 in 3.2...

12 years ago I spent $4500 putting a 300HP l98 into a 1986 Vette. I added cold/forced air induction, and a fancy exhaust system. I didn't take it to the track, but I had a friend time the cold air...

I have to say, I've never met so many socially-environmentally conscious people in my entire life. Is it contagious?

OK, here's a related question to the original thread.

I brought my 95 Jeep Grand Cherokee to Cali last Christmas from Florida. The Exhaust was literally falling off when I drove it here, so I had someone in Louisiana stick an Autozone-quality Cat on it...

Hmmmm, if they are that picky, perhaps I should put the original cat back on. I was under the impression that the PO took it off very soon after buying the car. That would be about 14 years ago.

It kinda sounds like if I put on mufflers, they may not bother looking to see if the Cat is there, and the pre-cats will probably get through the sniffer test.

I want mufflers anyway - I'm gettin...

It's not that tough. You will probably need a razor, as mine fell apart when I did my 1986. I actually had the local vocational school do ALL the weatherstrip on the car for me. I remember that...

Waitasecont! They don't put the car on a lift? How can they check under a 90 Vette with a mirror? Is there is enough clearance to see the pipes that way?
