I can't locate one. They all seem to be black. I have a new black one and i hate to have to try to color match it and jerk around.

Edge 3600 Stall w/ a 2.5 STR. It was brought used from another GTO member. I was going to install it but was reccommended by the tuner to run a 2800-3000 stall due to the cam I plan on running.

If it doesn't sell i'll probably get it re stalled by edge.

Looking to get $420 shipped. ]]> 2004-2006 GTO Parts for Sale (Pictures Required) ENUF PWR http://www.gtoforum.com/f14/fs-edge-racing-3600-2-5-str-stall-converter-28826/ http://www.gtoforum.com/f5/wtb-04-06-gto-m6-ibm-28825/ Mon, 06 Sep 2010 23:25:48 GMT Hey guys, I'm in the market for a new car and my first choice is a GTO. My preference is an IBM, but I would also go for a MBM. Has to be a manual M6, and black interior only (I'm not into the blue interiors) . I'm looking to spend 12-13k and would prefer a car with less than 60k. I would pay more or go over the 60k miles for a really clean car that has a clean past.

I currently live in Indiana and wouldn't mind a one day trip for the right car, since I know how hard it is to find these cars in good shape.

I'm right near the IL/WI border, just minutes from 94&132 (Gurnee). I do work in Chicago, so we could meet there also.

This is a DashDaq with the enhanced GM Signal software, two ODBII/CAN bus cables, a 2GB memory Card, USB cable, and windshield suction mount. There is a small black mark where the DasDaq sticker was, but you have to be two inches away to even see it. You would not notice it unless it was pointed out to you. Other than that, this is in PERFECT condition.

Having the two ODBII/CAN bus cables also makes it easy to move from car to car or quickly use it to read codes. If you add everything up, it's over $700 new. You can get all the details at DashDAQ from Drew Technologies. If you don't have a windows based computer, I would say don't buy this. To do the upgrades and design custom gauge themes you need windows.

PM me if you'd like my number or have any questions.

But which is correct for '69? I would guess emblems but I'd like to get confirmation.

Thanks!

But this is my first GTO which I got 10 days ago. Its a '69 in nice shape but it still has plenty of restoration opportunities. According to the PHS records, it came with a 350HP "YS" but supposedly the first owner ordered up a swap to an "XX". This is what I am researching now.

Anyway, its lots of fun and I look forward to being part of this forum.

Dave

The guy fiddles with his computer & says: Sir, they haven;t made the GTO since 1970, you must have a G6! I say, Buddy,y 06 GTO is outside ,would you like to see it?
Sorry sir, we don;t show any GTO since the 1970, maybe call the dealer & see what it really is? WTF!
How about a, Impala LS2?? Is that the V-6 sir, at which point i went to another Auto store, same deal no listing
Anyone have a part # for an oil filter - LS-2?? ]]> Engine Discussions roy http://www.gtoforum.com/f37/oil-change-filter-28819/ http://www.gtoforum.com/f38/slp-lm-i-lm-ii-28818/ Mon, 06 Sep 2010 05:28:33 GMT I'm on a budget and looking for a loud and good sounding cat-back system and have narrowed it down between the SLP Loudmouth I and II for my stock '04. I want it to be noticeable at idle and when cruising but not obnoxiously loud at the same time. I also plan on keeping my headers and everything else stock.

Any feedback would be helpful, thanks. ]]> Intake and Exhaust Discussions Doublezeros http://www.gtoforum.com/f38/slp-lm-i-lm-ii-28818/ http://www.gtoforum.com/f7/trip-so-far-28817/ Mon, 06 Sep 2010 04:44:16 GMT It's been a wild adventure so far.

In Georgia a double trailer set up decoupled directly in front of me. The second trailer's brakes then lock up since there isn't any air to them. I swerved hard right and found out how good the Kia Forte I rented handles, it did great.

It took me 2-1/2 hours to get through Atlanta's traffic at 3:30 till 6pm.

The next day a Chevy trailblazer had the spare tire drop down directly in front of me. The tire hit the pavement and lifted up, throwing the trailblazer rear end to the right and then the tire and wheel flipped around like crazy. I managed to miss both the careening SUV and the tire and wheel combo.

I got to St. Louis and a truck flipped over there. Shut I 70 down for 2 hours.

From there I stopped at a casino in Booneville Mo. and ate lunch and then proceeded to play $20 in a slot machine that paid me $970 in 45 minutes. Hope that continues when get to Vegas.

I made it to Omaha and we had a great reunion.

GM runs in my families blood. We looked at vehicles, here is the list. A Saturn Vue, two Escalades, a Corvette vert, a pair of Caddy CTS's, a Jaguar, a pair of GMC Denali's, one an XL, my Vette wasn't present but still counts, a Mercury Mountaineer and a brand spanking new Buick Regal. All but two were GM.

My sister did a family tree. William C Durant is a 3rd cousin. None of us knew that, but now I can definately say GM runs in my blood.

I'm off to Rocky Mountain National Park next. ]]> The Lounge fergyflyer http://www.gtoforum.com/f7/trip-so-far-28817/ http://www.gtoforum.com/f2/squealing-rattling-noise-28816/ Mon, 06 Sep 2010 02:18:56 GMT I have a 2004 GTO with 48K miles on it, purchased a year and a half ago. 6 Speed tranny.

I have a 2004 GTO with 48K miles on it, purchased a year and a half ago. 6 Speed tranny. With the clutch in, you can rev the car and hear nothing but the purr. When I pull out and in every gear, there is a squealing/chirping kind of sound off and on, and when you step on the gas in gear, there is a rattling kind of sound. Car shifts fine and runs great. Just really annoying listening to these sounds all the time. Two different mechanics looked at it, one thinks it might be the throw out bearing making some noise, and the other said he did some research and apparently there is transmission noise common on these cars and both said not to worry about it. Anyone have any ideas or similar issues? I wouldn't worry about it, but the noises it makes drive me nuts, LOL. ]]> 2004-2006 GTO General Discussion 2004bluegto http://www.gtoforum.com/f2/squealing-rattling-noise-28816/ http://www.gtoforum.com/f7/understanding-3-speed-2-rods-shifter-race-stock-cars-28815/ Sun, 05 Sep 2010 23:49:44 GMT Can you tell me how this shifter type is operated?
