Re: Insidethreat07 2001 Camaro

Well took my car out driving today, came home, started it back up and it said low oil. So I check it and it barely on the dipstick. So I put a couple quarts to top it off. Now this is the same oil I had in after I changed my intake gaskets in the winter and I have maybe 3500miles since the last oil change. I am going to get my oil changed tomorrow. Anyone know anything that could cause this. Ive been told to look at my rear main seal and my pcv valve..

EDIT:
I think what Im going to do is get an oil change and see if the low oil light comes on. Not sure if part of the problem is that it was sitting for so long.

I just realized the 02 sensor plug I put in to the ypipe fell out somewhere. Anyone know where I can pic one up at or the dimensions of it? Having great luck so far.

Re: Insidethreat07 2001 Camaro

Question:
My drivers side head stud broke off when doing the header install. The pacesetter gasket I used is like broke off and just wiggling around where the stud should be. So can I fix this by any chance without taking the manifold off. (I figure the answer is no lol). And if I have to take the header off. should I just take the head off to drill out the broke stud? And if so, is it easier taking it off or dropping the whole damn motor out the bottom?
P.S. I cant have a damn thing lol

Re: Insidethreat07 2001 Camaro

Is there any of the header stud sticking out at all? I had this happen when I did my head/cam swap and had just enough stud sticking out that I was able to get a pair of vice grips on it and work it out. I had to remove the header on that side to do it obviously...and luckily I had plenty of room since I had the whole drivetrain dropped out for the swap.

Well dad and I got the header leak stopped on the drivers side and pulled the broken stud out. Drove around for 30 mins and now the passenger side has an exhaust leak.. Going to fix the other side in the next couple days

Out of curiousity, how does it sound or feel like when it has a header leak.

Re: Insidethreat07 2001 Camaro

I bought a 3rd brake light cover for my car and I need an opinion on what LED bulb would be best back there, what I have back there has pretty noticeable hot spots.
The base is a 921/T5, which 194s will work. I was wondering out of the bulbs listed in the links which one would you guys think that would have the least amount of hot spots.
Here are the current one I have:

It wasn't for that race. They had trouble drying the top end of the track/shut down area so we ran 1/8 mile
