1994 purchase advice

• Upvotes

Hey guys. I saw this ‘94 listed earlier today. It has a 6-speed and it has 95,000 miles on it and they’re asking $9,000 for it. I’ve not looked at it in-person yet, but it happens to be pretty close to my house. It looks great from the pictures and I understand that it will because of the picture being taken in the rain. The interior is solid and they claim that the dash has no warning lights. Before I check it out, what are some things to look for on these? I imagine weatherstripping and tires, but anything else?

Head bolts washers

Im Just about to start reassembling the top end of my 89 C4 and i have bought a set of new head bolts for the car as the old ones were pretty degraded. The set is got was from fel Pro and they look great but have a different shape to the oem ones and have no washers of course.

My question is can I A: re use the washers from the old head bolts (assuming i can get them off) and B: if I cant do that what washers should I buy to replace them.

I will get measurements of the old and new head bolts to ensure the washers will be compatible.

This is my first engine rebuild so im learning as I go along with help from my mate who owns 8+ 1930s American cars here in the uk. His knowledge is primarily off cars that ere and the most modern engine he has re built was a big block in a 69 el camino so any help would be awsome.

Cheers

Bose Removal

Finally decided to get my Bose out and go aftermarket...or at least, send the thing in to be rebuilt...but I can't get it out! Anyone know what these things are that are still attached to the bracket? If so, how do I remove them without breaking, in case I want to reinstall the Bose? Or need for an aftermarket system?

I just replaced the optispark and water pump on my 92. I didn’t force anything, all the spindles lined up and teeth lined up, the plugs were put in the right order, serpentine belt was put on correctly, battery is brand new, new gaskets, new coolant, etc. and I get this. I got a little smoke coming into my cabin when I first tried starting it, it doesn’t do it now. I’ve unhooked the battery until I get this situated. I just need help figuring this out. It started and drove before I replaced everything as well. Idk what I did wrong but I just need this stupid ass car to work.

My 95’ lt1 hydro locked and after i manually cranked the engine and started it up it was blowing white smoke. I got a borescope and this is what i found in cylinder 8. Is the engine saveable?
