How about removing the cam covers. They're what have me nervous. The main worry is snapping off torx heads. The rest of it seems like a PITA but, very doable. Much like the headers were. Just a thought.

I know I would be interested in buying a detailed video. Please try and video it. As a noob I want to learn as much as I can.

Default Re: About to tear open another car

I would like to see the removal, test and replacement of the thermosistor relay for the tertiary butterfly system. I think it's under the injector modulator valve that controls downshifts when the ECM is in square loop.

I can't find it anywhere in O'Reilly's service manual.

Just kidding of course Jeff.... you do a great job for the Registry.

It's right next to the flux capacitor.

Just remember to check the muffler bearing, replace it if it's worn:

And be sure to refill the blinker fluid:

JeffVette, can you add to this list?

Thanx.

What kind of tech write up would you like to see?
Being new to the Zs, there isn't anything about them and the LT5 especially that I wouldn't want to see. However, I may be the only one in the world with a dial up connection (I live in the sticks, apparently), and video files are out of the question (for me). However, I have some experience (I do industrial training development stuff) and contacts that produce videos and make them available (for a small price) on DVD. If you wanna discuss this some more, or do one sometime down the road (too late for the current project, I recon) shoot me a PM.

Oh, and thank you very much for asking. Stills would be fine...And, your idea gives ME ideas. You ever been a "SME"?

I like the idea of a video. Could be a whole DVD series. Top end (plenum, coils, plugs, starter, etc) Cam covers, headers. Could sell thru registry store.

Video?? hmm. i guess pictures would be better for many cases!
Now, if you want replace your Ignition with MSD box ,with those wires,and connectors,...
how you want do it in video? not easy to show!! JMO

but for changing the Shocks to performance Coil-over, this may be good for filming,
as well camber,struts setup for street or drag racing!

P.S if there will be stripping girls in backround of video, i will buy that DVD!!
