Re: Another Engine Temp Question
Sounds normal to me. I do the same after driving in the insane Texas heat?raise the hood and keep the garage door open for a few hours when possible.

Re: What else during headed install?
Good call Bob! I pulled the wheels a few weeks ago and cleaned up all the suspension & brake bits. Will definitely do a more thorough cleaning with the fender liners and manifolds out of the way.

What else during header install?
My header install kit from Marc will be here in a few weeks. What else should I consider doing while I have things torn apart for the install? Fuel filter is on the list already.

Re: Coolant Bypass from Marc Haibeck
The less bent end is the drivers side. Once in place, and before you attach the hose, you use a #2 Philips screwdriver to bend that side down a bit to more resemble the passenger side. As for the...

Re: WTB: Exhaust - Aftermarket or 93-95 stock
Bob, your exhaust and the posts detailing it are one that I keep going back to month after month, and the main reason I?m entertaining a stock exhaust with cutouts. I reached out to Pete already and...

Re: Headers
Appreciate the feedback! From my research, OBX and Maximizer are indeed the same. OBX headers are just more highly polished.

Re: Headers
Anyone have pics of the dimpling you had to do? And I?m assuming it?s better to dimple it before having them coated, or does that not really matter?

Re: FS: Full Factory exhaust from 1994 ZR1
Unfortunately shipping costs would probably make that go outside my goal of a ?budget? build to open up my 91. I may just end up jumping off the deep end in a few months and going full in with SW...

Re: 1991 ZR-1 #1648!!!
Yeah, some of the comments on there were pretty ridiculous. I wanted Nitto 555 G2s, but the fronts were out of stock everywhere. Ended up with M/T Street Comps. Don't have much to compare them to,...

Re: Replacement Tires for 1993 ZR-1
Nitto 555 g2 fronts are out of stock everywhere and Nitto doesn?t know when production will start again. Instead, I just put M/T Street Comps on my new (to me) 91 last Friday and they?re excellent!
