Re: My "new" car/project.

You'll like the 5.3T though. Should be fun
I'm going with an L33 with a baby 70mm in my Malibu

Re: My "new" car/project.

Ordering stuff tomorrow.

Decided on ProComp gauges with the black face.

This.


Instead of the white ones.


For now anyway, I'll probably just use a resistor on the wire for the backlight of the two new gauges, so the other stock ones can be left as bright as possible. That's assuming that the new tach/speedo would be overpoweringly bright in comparison.

Probably different breathers and a catch can too. I don't like the vented push in breathers, if they saturate, oil drips onto the valve covers from them.

If I modify the bracket that holds the vacuum reservoir I can stick a catch can cleanly next to it. There is a capped port in the intake I could run a line to so the can has vacuum pulled on it.

On that note, I've no idea why it has a vacuum reserve canister. It's not some big nasty cam and it doesn't seem to bleed down and creep forward when stopped in gear for a long time either. But, it's already there so I'll just leave it.

It should really move out once I get to that. The car doesn't weigh much.
