Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!
If you have any problems with the registration process or your account login, please contact us!
ABS, SES and Service vehicle light are on, havent had a chance to check for codes yet, kinda just wanted some R and R time away from the car, but now that you say that, im terribly curious, lol. Gotta go find my data cable now.
Trans mount should be tight? Ill have to check on it in the morning.
yeah i ditched my poly trans mount too and went abck to stock, after having my wheels rebalanced and new u joints and rebalance on driveshaft. all along it was that poly trans mount
After tearing 2 rubber mounts in half I went back to a Poly.
The secret is to NOT use the preload plate and to grind the 2 urethane nubs flat (this is for the Energy Suspension mount).
After doing that I have virtually no vibration except at WOT and even then it's not terrible.

Obviously you have codes but, what did you come up with?

And not to mention, poly mounts take about 500-1000 miles to break in, though I think Spencer is far past that period...
You should feel my car when it locks the converter and shifts into fourth...my god. And that's just with a poly engine mount - I have poly bushings sitting next to me.
Gone but not forgotten: 1986 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z
if the problem is not in the mount, I have a stock steel driveshaft that worked perfect in my car. You can test it out and if it works for you just keep it.
Just throwing it out there...
I do think it has something to do with the mounts though
Well im happy to report all this was an embarrassingly easy fix, lets just say, the whole car runs better on 8 than it does on 7
Forgot to plug in the injector for #8.
SES light is out, ZERO vibrations anytime, car has significantly more "spunk", and is WAY more driveable, no more stalling coming up to lights, didnt have to 2 foot it anywhere in my little test drive around the block. Only bummer is, now that is running PROPERLY, you can really tell how the extra cubes in the new motor ate up the cam. It bearly chops or anything now, just sounds like it might have a small mis. Super stock sounding, almost scary.
Need to get this ABS thing figured out though, ABS INOP is on, all wheel speed sensors plugged in, abs block plugged in, no idea what the problem is, ABS does not work.

Well one problem down, at least you're still making progress with it. More than likely the ABS issue is probably something simple as well.
