Re: How do you remove the 2 small bolts on LT1 coil?

I recently put an MSD Blaster coil on my LT1 Hawk, once I took the coil out of the car I just smacked the rivets a few times with a hammer and chisel and they broke right off.

Re: Is there a way to "test" an Optispark?? (EricVonHa)

Yeah, in fact the guy just called me. He said the car has "a butt-load of timing"... He said as much timing as it is running it should be throwing a code but isn't so he thinks the PCM might be bad....

Re: Is there a way to "test" an Optispark?? (bogus)

I wasn't aware of the difference between '94 and '95-up optis when I did the LT4 conversion or I would have upgraded to a vented unit. I still have the non-vented unit in my Hawk.

Re: Is there a way to "test" an Optispark?? (bogus)

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't a code 16 a misfire?? If so, that code could be thrown by things other than a bad opti.

Re: I know it don't belong here...but anybody got an airfoil for sale?....my bro wants one...

I was told that an airfoil doesn't do any good unless you're pushing over 500hp... and hopefully by that time you would be using a larger aftermarket TB that doesn't require a separate airfoil.

Is there a way to "test" an Optispark??

I was told the only way to see if it is bad is to install a new one. I have a hard time believing there isn't a way to test an electrical part.

TIA,

Re: [RANT] Picked my Firehawk up from County Corvette today.... (TravisD)

I had the parameters on the PCM checked and they are ok but I guess it could still be bad. I think it's either the PCM, MAF or Opti myself but don't have any equipment to check them. Might be time...

Re: [RANT] Picked my Firehawk up from County Corvette today.... (EricVonHa)

Re: Is the old synthetic myth correct? (Keith95Coupe)

Some new cars (inlcuding the C5 and 911) come with synthetic from the factory... no need to break a new motor in on dino oil.
