I watched a Two Guy Garage the other day. They started with an early model Chevy pickup, 305 V-8, 202 torque. They added a set of headers, a throttle body spacer (1") and a cold air system. That was...

Well all I am saying is that there is really no protective coating on these headers. When the paint goes then it loses any protection from the elements. It also doesn't hold the heat inside the...

My guess is the works for the electric seat adjuster, but just a guess. I can fit my hands under the passenger seat because it is just a manual front to rear adjuster, but the driver side is all...
