I just replaced the 4-speed in #2967 with a T-50 5-speed. Among other things, the 4-speed inner speedo cable was twisted in a curly-Q, and I found a melted...
Another issue I have with this 5-speed swap is the gearshift knob. It is the OE with the first-design font for the gear pattern on it, but is made out a...
Well, I can add some good news to this post. This will be in the next issue of the CV Magazine but it seems I can let this one out a little early. The...
Chuck- I have an air cleaner decal (repro). Email me for a price. thx Richie ... From: Chuck <cosvega76@...> Subject: [Cosworth Vegas] Air cleaner decal ...
Ollie and all I have been having problems with my low pressure pump not lasting more than 100 miles at most. To date I have burnt up two used low pressure...
After wiping out 6 low pressure pumps checking all the wiring replacing the 10 amp fuse the only thing in the system I did not do was replace the high pressure...
Don't forget to check the fuel pressure regulator and return line. A failed regulator that runs pressure too high, or a kinked return that does the same will...
Hello everyone To start with I have a CV that was sitting for years inside dry and climate controlled I woke it up a few weeks ago and it did start right up...
Coolant temp has to be over 165 for the fast idle circuit to stop functioning. Also, fuel consumption will be quite high if the coolant temp is only 150. Look...
The stock idle speed is 1600, I think Bob's advice on the running temp and possibly the coolant temp sensor is the problem. The cycling that you are getting...
Remove the thermostat and make sure it is a 195 degree type, NOTHING LOWER no matter what. Aluminum engines run better the hotter they are (up to a point) and...
When re-installing the cam sprokets, is it OK to use locktite instead of the tabs? Thanks. Chris King http://home.comcast.net/~kvcbk/ [Non-text portions of...
Well, I'm done. I love CVs, but after the catastrophic failure of the sleeved cylinder in my turbo engine under ONE boost of 15 psi, I have evaluated my...
Tony, Sorry to hear the outcome of all your work. Are you sure you want to let all this go? I've changed direction so many times and seem to always end up...
First of all, is anyone else having trouble with Yahoo Groups for finding previous posts?? I click on the one I want in the list, it brings up the correct...
Chuck, I think the ones Chris had were left over from Bob Maloy. On the Yahoo site I have had one occurrence where the message was different from the title....
Chuck, The very last cable we had was when I took over and it went to GM for #0001. We are however looking into new cables but the issue as you mentioned was...

Bob, Thanks for the info. Maybe it is because of the situation I am in, but it seems strange to have a brand-new cable and casing in a car that will never get...
Thanks for the empathy Dick, I am considering having a good machine shop follow my lead on building another solid deck block with some other modifications that...
Hi Tony, If at all possible try to put this project to the side for a few years and come back it later maybe the fire will return? You might not be as lucky as...
Your car sounds like I would want mine to be based on all the chassis mods are right up my line of thought. What year Camaro rear discs and parts were you...
'98 and later S-10/Blazer/Bravado and Camaro rear brakes bolt onto the Vega rear end. These have a drum type parking brake inside the disk. The Camaro axle...
I am pretty sure they are the late 80's camaro discs. The master cylinder was carefully selected for their piston ID and the S10 ID. I had many people tell me...
