  • Solved my V6 oil Leak issue.

    I got a 1995 Z28 last night.
    It is totaled and will make a great donor for my swap
    Every nut and bolt is there.
    My budget for the swap is not huge.
    I would however like to put some headers and a decent intake on it for now.

    Congratulations! Can't wait to see the swap progress.

    Now you'll only burn oil, not leak it

        Not necessarily, I just ordered a rear main seal for my LT1 as it was leaking and it has not ran in 2 months.
        I need to confirm that my engine is original at 189,000 miles, then it would justify a leak for sure.

        Good Luck with the Swap John.
        Are you going to parting out the car after the swap? I might be interested few parts

            It was hit by a truckon the right side.
            I will part with what ever I don't need for the swap.
            And what is really cool.
            I put the 3800 back together to get it out of my garage.
            It's not f*%^ing leaking now.

            Will get more pics once it is out of my dad's trailer.
            The firebird is out side right now, sad to see.

                    What pieces?
                    I am taking the door panels.
                    They're the nice leather looking ones.

                      Definitely a great way to fix your V6 oil leak! I might have to try that myself some time!

                        i am halfway threw and interior swap and i am looking for nice stuff. i got some stuff but tossed it because it was pretty beat up

                          My cloth are clean, but have the holes for manual.
                          I know the car has all the other pieces.
                          It has the trunk piese with the bose.
                          I did notice the pieces on the hatch and the hatch its self were nice.

                            ok sounds good. just when you get around to selling that stuff ill take first stab at it. i have power doors (wish i had manual windows) and i have bose system so that works out perfect
