NEW: Meziere LS1 Electric Water Pump (C5 Version)

For years talk of electric water pumps had been circulating through the LS1 community, and finally Meziere has delivered. Whether you are a hard core drag racer who wants to just cool the car in the pits and staging lanes, an enthusiast who's itching for more power from his heads/cam car, or just a basic bolt on type of guy, an electric water pump is probably for you.

C5 LGM Longtube Header Install The headers are a full 32” True Long Tube header that has been dubbed, "The most powerful C5 header on the Planet”! This header includes a complete header with a 3/8” flange and incorporates a “Race Style Merge Collector”, to a full 3” X pipe, and continues in 3” right up to the original 2 bolt muffler flanges. This makes this a full bolt on application that requires NO cutting or welding, and leaves the factory system completely intact incase you ever want to easily put the car back to stock.

Did you know?

A flashing SES light means that the PCM has detected too many misfires. This can be from a bad plug, bad wire, loose wire, or something more serious.

LS1 Head Swap Finally I dug in and did a headswap on an LS1. This turned out to be VERY easy, but a lot of work. I strongly recommend you have a helper during this install, and all the recommended tools listed on the page. Anybody that can turn a wrench (and not get frustrated when something goes wrong) can do this install no problem.

LS1 to LS6 PCV conversion So many LS1's have oil consumption issues and GM took a stab at fixing it on the LS6. In this article I show you how to convert your LS1 over to the newer LS6 style PCV system. This will require cutting away a small part of your engine block, however, it sounds a lot scarier than it actually is. This mod can be done for about $65 in parts.

BMR Swaybar Install If you've been fortunate enough to drive a true modern sports car, you probably noticed how tight and responsive the car felt. While the F-body may not be a true sports car, you can get it one step closer by upgrading the suspension. One of the key parts of the suspension is the stabilizer bar, a.k.a the anti-swaybars or "swaybars" for short. Here I'll detail how to remove and replace your stock bars for a set of aftermarket ones. (F-Body) More...   300394 views Est 2-3 hours

Full instructions are given for finding a cylinder at top dead center (or close to it) and determining if shims are needed or not. (F-Body & C5) More...   303700 views Est 1-3 hours
