    Special Recognition: Dale E

    Dale has a unique take on all things automotive and has proved to be a valuable asset to the Goblin world. He is outside looking in so he can see things that aren't always obvious to folks looking at one donor and one general goal! I know I have benefitted by him looking over my shoulder and...

    V1 LeoZug's Montana Street Goblin - '05 Cobalt SS donor

    If it is tracking straight but hunts to re-center after turns it sounds like it needs more toe in on the front. Your alignment shop ought to be willing to adjust things so the changes are recorded and quantified, for their warranty. From what I've read, placing weights in the seats, mimicking a...

    V1 Out of storage and won’t start… ideas?

    A fave here in the south after storage is mud dauber's nest in the fuel tank vent tube, causes fuel tank pressure to go vac and can't deliver fuel. Try to start and run with the fuel cap off. Bugs just naturally cause the oddest bugs.

    V1 LeoZug's Montana Street Goblin - '05 Cobalt SS donor

    Driving kid to school? And you once thought it would never run?(Don't feel bad, virtually every builder hits that moment. I'm there just now myself! It is sitting in the shop as life pulls me in every other direction except shop time. Grrrr.o_O)

    V1 [GUIDE] F35 to F23 (with LSD) Transmission Swap

    The air gap may be correct but if the F23 T/O bearing compresses the F35 pressure plate fingers further in it could contact the clutch hub? This is all speculation on my part as I Do Not have the pieces(even used) to compare clutch stack heights. Are you using the bell housing spacer plate...

    No pilot bushing on this application.

    V1 [GUIDE] F35 to F23 (with LSD) Transmission Swap

    Clutch disc installed backwards? It would kinda engage the motor again when the T/O bearing presses against the center of the clutch hub. Or clutch disc center is coming apart? You may be able to see the problem through the inspection cover or with a bore scope. BUT the good news is it...

    V1 SmsDetroit Registered!!! Extended Track Goblin 09 Turbo SS

    The Super Hi-Tech "Smack" cures a world of sins. I believe that it was ENIAC that was found to have an actual insect/arachnid? blocking a connection, thus the descriptor "bug". Though that incident may also be a Sci-Fi construction. Butterfly Effect in time travel, etc.

    Z54 install for 2008 2.2 L61

    Dear Mr. Swerve My apologies for my prior posts. As my own life is filled with hot and cold running insanity, often times my exuberance can run well forward of actual possibility! Turbocharging is not within my skill-set but I do enjoy to extrapolate when the notion strikes. So I'm gonna sit...

    Z54 install for 2008 2.2 L61

    5# boost limit? That is only if you want to drive that L61 forever. Remember, IF you're not afraid of blowing it up the limits change.(One of my donors had an L61 that PO over boosted until it split cylinder #3. I am keeping the remains around for further research. Sometimes carnage is...
