Re: SOCAL ZRONERS check in
I'll give it a try if the time and location work out. I'm in southern Orange County, so a PCH cruise sounds good.

Re: Another 1991 Fails CA emissions... Help!
I'm sorry, but I failed to mention that I failed the first test with an aftermarket PROM. I managed to buy the last stock PROM for a 1990 in the Chevrolet system. They shipped it all the way from...

Re: WTB- Zr1 Headers
I have a set of coated long-tube headers that I was thinking about selling. Watson's I believe. Don't know if they suit your needs though as they have the EGR fitting but no AIR tubes.

Re: WTB: 1990 OEM Prom
Actually, I read an article by Hib Halverson that stated how a ZR-1 owner had failed for NOx here in Califonia despite having virtually the same numbers he had two years prior. Apparently, in 2003 CA...

Wow! Thanks for the photos, they make an excellent guide. The line I am referring to is the line in the second photo. I can now see where it attaches to the airhorn fitting. I'm not sure if it was...

Still trying to solve my emissions issues here in CA. The dyno test show excess NOX at both the 15 mph and 25 mph tests. I'm about 200 ppm over at both speeds. Not too bad. I have a modded chip so...

Re: LT5 Gaskets & Seals
Thanks for the info. After starting the header swap, I eyed the exhaust ports and its not a pretty sight. Looks like 13 of 16 exhaust valves are having trouble controlling the oil. Just thought it...

Re: LT5 Gaskets & Seals
Regarding the valve stem seals, I haven't really taken a close look or a close read on the subject, but can the valve stems seals work on the exhaust side of the '90 cylinder heads? Can they be...

Re: A.I.R system Q's
I'm still waiting for the headers from SW. They seem to be willing to supply the headers with the A.I.R. plumbing for an additional cost, though that wasn't the original plan. The CARB is a huge...

Re: A.I.R system Q's
I believe the new SW headers that have been sold on the forum give the AIR tubes as an option. I went with the headers that place the cats before the y-pipe rather than the long tube headers.
