I've decided to try one more chat option, since previous attempts haven't been the greatest. Anyway, it is a chatbox (shout box?) that is currently located at the bottom of the forum home page. And for a brief testing period, this is where I plan on leaving it. Depending on how the community uses it, there is the option to also show it in the forum areas, as well as the threads. An upcoming release will also allow me to place it on the CMS front page. But, as I said, I am currently just going to test it out and see how it gets used.
Feel free to try it out, and leave comments either in the chat box, here in the comments area, or both. I know I have previously stated that I was trimming off the options and getting back to the bare-bones of what people use the site for, but after seeing a few other sites out there with this, I figured I'd give it a trial run.

Too many resources have shown the rod length to be 5.9" for both motors. We have known for a long time that the 3900 LZ9 rod is 5.827" long from measurements, but the LZ4 was kind of a mystery even now in 2023. Maybe its out there, but most people want to build the bigger motor. However, there is something more to these motors than to think of them like bigger 2.8/3.1 motors. Unlike the 2.8 and 3.1, the difference is the stroke and rod, not stroke and pistons.

Hi folks! Sorry I've been offline for quite some time. Been working overseas and it's been crazy! Anyway I finally got around to fixing the leaking steering pump on my 84 Century. As far as I know the PUMP is original to the 1987 year engine (which i bought as a core engine). For quite some time, it has leaked oil slowly, so that if the car sits for a month or so, all the oil is gone out of the steering pump. So, today I fixed it. I was quoted a high sum of money for a "rebuilt" pump o...

Dug up the GM Service Bulletin for "Lifter tick when cold", 57-61-09. '91 to '95 LQ1 (VIN X)
http://mymonte.com/discussion/topic/...e-%2357-61-09/ The parts kit has been discontinued by GM long ago. My quest was to find sources for those parts; and complete the procedure on my '93 Lumina Euro 3.4 which was torn apart to replace the rear head gasket. There are three critical part numbers in the GM service kit (aside from gaskets and O-rings) required t...-

There have been a couple of guys who wanted to know how to read a compressor map. Hopefully, I haven't made any mistakes this time (unlike the last) and this will prove to be useful to you in your understanding of a compressor map. Reading a turbo map isn't as difficult as it looks. The map displays 4 key pieces of information. A. It displays the pumping efficiency of the compressor (meaning the amount of actual air that it pumps in contrast to the amount of heat that's created while wasting e...
