Camino LS6

I remember that pic...

In that case, the answer is that Chevrolet didn't.

6k? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha... No.

Hmm, Duntov did some messing around with heads way back when...

Enjoy it, vipes!

Those clowns in DC really need to pay attention to something that matters for a change, instead of wasting time on this.

Thanks guys. And yeah, I felt like an ass getting those wires crossed - I guess the law of averages caught up with me, I must have had them on and off about 30 times. Got new wires and some looms for them yesterday, the pickup coil for the other distributor should be in today. It's good to be driving the Tahoe again.

Hmm.... Corvette race car.....

Nice write-up.

Agreed.

So completely cool! Congratulations!

Thanks guys. To say I'm relieved would be an understatement. Tomorrow I'll swap the insurance back and give the wagon a rest. I'm going to get another new set of plug wires and tidy things up underhood, tighten and re-check everything that might need it, and make an appointment for inspection. I might even wash it on the next warm day.

Thanks. I wasn't all that much fun to live through a good bit of it, but I'm very happy with the final result.

Believe me, I feel your pain.

Right about now you'd have to pay a pretty penny to get me to sell it!

VICTORY! The Tahoe is back! Runs like a new truck now. So, the funny part is that I had already fixed it and didn't know it. We found that there is a TON of resistance in the pickup coil in the original distributor, so swapping it with the one from Mothertruck should have solved the problem immediately. It didn't only because after running the plug wires for the umpteenth time I transposed the #5 and #7 plug wires somehow when I put the other distributor in. The resultant miss mimicked the earlier condition exactly. I feel stupid and vindicated all at the same time. Now all I have to do is some odds and ends under the hood of the Tahoe and replace the pickup coil so I can put a functional distributor back into Mothertruck. Oh, and finally clean-up the garage! Camino is a happy man tonight!

Bummer! Back to the dealer?

New cars are off of my radar for the time being. However, if the Ute comes here I will find a way. There isn't much else I'd really want to buy anyway.

This.

It's a phantom, and that usually works for me. Cheers.

I don't think that the ELR (unlike the XTS), needs any excuses made for it. I looks great, and it is technologically advanced - isn't that what Cadillacs are supposed to be?

OK, now I have...

I didn't link to the Ramones... Ah! My mistake. And, no, I didn't follow the link this time. I admit it.

"Gotta keep cool now I gotta take care" Good stuff, that. And, yeah, I know the intention behind what the Ramones did - I just hated it.

Interesting premise.
