Default Just got a 1994 Z28 a few questions.

Well like the title says I just recently got a new car, my first NON-Ford. I traded my 1994 Mustang GT for it, was very sad to see her go but I figured too good of a deal to pass up. I traded the Mustang for the Camaro and got 700$ cash in hand. Heres the pictures ( Questions follow...)





Ported Heads
Ported Throttle Body
Full MSD Ignition
BBK Intake
BBK Headers
King Cobra Clutch
3.73 gears
Subframes
Drag springs, with LCA's and Strut tower Braces

200,000+ Miles

New Car, 119,000 miles
Intake, Exhaust (Dumped), B&M Shift Kit, Stalled, Air Foil





Questions now:
My passenger window rolls up slow and sometimes stops when its cold out, if its warm out no problems. My oil gauge reads 0 sometimes and normal at other times, every time is reads 0 it says check gauges . How hard is long tubes to put on. I picked those up off a 96 Camaro for 30$ are they an abosolute pain in the *** or is it doable with some patients.

Doable with patients plenty of threads about header installs. You need a new window motor which is common....no help on the 0 pressure except the check gauges light is coming on just to tell you to look at your gauges.

Just get EGR block offs right? Those are the headers I plan on installing, I got them for a steal of 30$.

My dad invited me to his house to eat dinner, and I figured a above shot would look good. Also tinted the tails.

window motor for sure, very common, easy to do especially if it has been done before because they usually replace rivets with bolts

long tubes is doable, but patience is a virtue

I know with some headers its makes it a little easier when you un bolt the motor mounts and raise the engine a tad for some extra clearance when installing. The oil pressure may just be as simple as a sender, but check the oil pressure with a manual gauge fist to be sure it has it.
