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/f37/cam-problem-28774/ Fri, 03 Sep 2010 16:05:21 GMT Hi to everyone as i am obviousely new to the forum. The car is a '04 gto w/ls1 that belongs to my father-in-law and is completly stock except for the airfreshner in the vent. I don't know the actual stock cam specs for the ls1 but if i'm not mistake the LSA is either 116* or 117*. So with that there shouldn't be that much of a noticable lope that the motor mounts wouldn't absorbe. So heres the question..Is the cam more of a performance cam than i think with maybe a 110* lsa or do i have a cylinder or two missing. The car idles between 6-7oorpm and not only do you see the tach deflect but you can feel it as well as see the car moving when in the drivers seat. Now the car has only 38,900 miles on it and i'm sure that my father-in-law goes by the manufactures obscene amount of miles before having to change the spark plugs or wires...thats why i'm thinking misfire?
Despite the fact that it isn't my car and i live 60 miles from it i have racked over 1000miles on it and i noticed it from day one but i just a young gun and he's old school so why listen to me...
Any suggestions.. i'm going to pull the plugs and check the gaps just to make sure and check the wires for burns, etc...:willy: ]]> Engine Discussions frotosride http://www.gtoforum.com/f37/cam-problem-28774/ http://www.gtoforum.com/f37/ls1-maggie-28724/ Tue, 31 Aug 2010 16:09:05 GMT Was wondering what resulsts I would get with my mods with a maggie 112.I'm pickin one up used for $3,000 from a friend of mine who upgraded to the 122. ]]> Engine Discussions MadGoat04 http://www.gtoforum.com/f37/ls1-maggie-28724/ http://www.gtoforum.com/f37/hptuners-vcm-suite-most-extensive-tuning-diagnosis-tool-now-pfyc-com-28723/ Tue, 31 Aug 2010 15:36:03 GMT Tune and diagnose your car using PFYC's newest product - HPTuner's VCM Suite Tuning and Scanning Tool!

If the vacuum line that runs from the vacuum manifold to the surge valve is connected then my car doesn´t build up any boost at all. The line is 3/16 and wired straight to the surge valve. However if i disconnect it then the car build up boost as it should, however it is impossible to get a great tune since the engine is sucking air from the pipe on the vacuum manifold.

Could someone tell me how it works?

Does the engine always suck air or will it try to press air from it during boost?

cause i am wondering if the line attached need a reverse thing that doesnt allow the air to be pressed through the vacuum line (if it works like that?)
Really bad instructions from procharger regarding that topic.

My stock radiator is leaking between the plastic side and the core so it's time to upgrade. (Nice huh, I only have had the car a little while and put less than a oil change of miles on it - oh well)

So I would like to know if anyone out there is running a after-market all aluminum stock replacement.

I have only found 1 option so far

They quoted me $621.84
