Chevrolet running bad etc?

January 9th, 2011 · No Comments

The truck is a 78 scottsdale, but had to get a reman engine in 2000; but It’s got a 350 long block, I had both heads redone.

I have a full size Chevy silverado. I put low profile 17’s on it and now the speedo is about the mph off. when I am going 45 the speedo says 55. I would like to change the ring and pinion gear to make up for it because the rear end is already making a noise. not low on fluid though. I don’t know what the stock ratio is or how to tell. but can someone tell me how the ratio’s work. do I need a higher or lower gear ratio.

As a rough ball park average, how much would it be for 2010 Chevrolet Impala?

January 9th, 2011 · No Comments

I have a 2010 Chevrolet Impala in Black. Today, I noticed a scratch (not deep enough to feel when you touch it) going along the side. I also have swirls…
