Congrats on picking up the TA!

Welcome to Ls1Tech, there is a lot of good knowledge here. Honestly the best thing ever is google searching with Ls1Tech in the front of you question and it brings up 20-22 years worth of knowledge on things. Literally almost anything you can thing of you can find on here. Post some engine pics and information about the car when you have time. Good luck with Build!

This is one of the most knowledgeable threads you can find. Trust me, I have searched other forums for my other vehicles for years, and in some of them (looking at you cruze talk) the most those idiots can say is “take it to a dealer”…. Lol.

Let’s just say that doesn’t happen here in these parts unless you want to be publicly shamed for such an ignorant response to valid questions. Albeit, I spend most of my time in the PCM and advanced threads, and lots of our talk involves how to repin things and tune stuff, or build one of a kind engines and so forth.

If you want to mod something, you found the right place for information. We are all here to help. Welcome to your eventual financial ruin and enjoyment lol. Parts ain’t cheap haha.

I’ve been taking care of some Gremlins and I have it running good.
Trunk was stuck so I got it open and relaxed the lock, Replaced plugs, fuel pressure regulator, o2 sensor, bypassed the throttle body coolant lines, blocking off EGR.

it’s idling too high so that needs to be addressed. aC isn’t hooked up so I’d like to get that going as well.

It needs paint, top, and interior work. Going to get it as nice as I can within reason.

once it looks good I’d like to do a cam and 4.10 gears.

lots of plans but we will see if life cooperates.
