Monteman1971

I just recently put a catch can in mine...although it was only a tiny bit, I was tired of cleaning antifreeze off my control arm as it flung from that hose... Steve

Looks like you should be saying to the Monte "Open Wide and take your medicine"....lol Looks great but now you'll need some suspension work to make it all "hook"....lol... It never ends... Steve

Phoenix graphics have been around a long time...... I would trust them..... Andreas'...I'm not a big fan of stripes on a Monte..but yours look good! Steve

I think you need to take the manifold off to see whats going on in there......

Is that a flat tapped cam or a roller cam? Sounds like you just have roller tip rockers. Therefore break in is necessary on a flat tapped cam...... If it's a flat tapped cam and the rocker doesn't have as much movement as the others, you may have flatten a lobe on the cam which is not uncommon on flat tapped cams and the lack of Zinc in the new oils.... I'm not even going to say what I think of Comp Cams stuff..... Steve

By the time your done with putting the polish on the stitching the entire panel is covered.....after buff and polish, It doesn't get on your clothes. That's one eye opening interior Andy! Steve

Looks great...I like the color too!!!! Steve

So Rodney...does it look as good in person as the picture? Steve

Has this guy had your stuff since this was originally posted August of 2011???? Steve

Greg, I think you need to post a picture of your tail pipe extensions....You know...the ones as to not annoy the neighbors as you leave the house in the am Steve

That is cleeeeeaaaaannnnnnn.... Very impressive!!!! Steve

Now that's "wheels up"!!!! Fantastic!!!! Steve

So the rug on my door panels was looking faded and made an otherwise nice panel look dingy. So I took them off and redyed the carpet....but that's not the tech help... So after the rug was looking all sharp, now the rest of the panel looked a bit dingy because the stitching had lost that really black look, especially in the pull handle. So with the use of a little shoe polish (the kind in the tin) and an old tooth brush, they look like new again. I figured they use shoe polish on your shoes and it doesn't wear off on your pants so why not. A bit of buffing with a rag and the shoe polish brush and I'm very impressed with how they came out. So I figured I would pass this on..... Steve

Took my door panels off to re-dye the rug part of it....then a little shoe polish on the stitching and they look like new again! Steve

Thanks again guys... pulled the trigger today and ordered the electrical. I'll put it in the manifold. If I put it in the front I'm going to need a way to make it look pretty

Looks great.....but it does look blue...lol... Good luck this year!!! Steve

Thanks for the input guys, I'm going to go for the electrical gauge! Now does it matter if I put the sending unit in the head or the intake manifold and if I go with the intake manifold should I put it front or back or it doesn't matter? Steve

I have the Auto Meter Ultra Lite oil pressure gauge under the dash now, so I'll get a match for the temperature. I just don't trust the factory gauge, I've had a few issues with it and connections. It's finally working consistantly but it's telling me the cra is running at a constant (what looks to be)160... and with the summer coming I'd rather be sure. Steve

I've always trusted the mechanical temperature gauge over the electrical for whatever reason but I'm thinking of putting an under-dash temperature gauge so I'm looking for opinions. The reason I'm thinking electrical is because typically for a mechanical gauge it has that large sending unit attached and you have to drill a big whole through the fire wall. Now I do have the factory temperature gauge but this is a family site so I won't give my opinion of it....lol Thanks, Steve

Paint the incerts red (maybe a little red tape just to see how that would look)...... They look ok. Steve

He's got a lot of stuff...thanks for sharing......you certainly need to be patient to look through all those pages. Steve

Because it's already done and looks good...just leave it. I vote to leave the wheel well trim on the car too...it looks good. More than likely if you take the wheel well trim off your going to have rub marks under them which will need to get re-painted. My 2 cents, Steve

That is a work of art!!!! Just beautiful..the time, effort and money must be incredible......but the one pic is just a teaser...got more? Steve

Looks great!!!! That's the number one question I get about my car...They all point and ask "what's this"? The best are those who think they know what it is...explain that to whomever their with and get it totally wrong....lol Steve

Congrat's Davey...you just keep getting better!!! Steve
