What is it? crate engine, replacement engine, ???? The block has the old holes in the seal area [front and back] for the intake [rubber seal that is] like the old blocks had. Also there are the dip stick boss s on both sides of the block, only the left side is drilled and used.

I need to change the alternator on my mother-in-law's 1989 Caprice. Two of the bolts are torx head; does anyone know what size bit these take? The biggest I have is a T30, it fits but is a little sloppy so I assume it must take on a little bigger than that.

Thanks! ]]>Wed, 17 Apr 2013 14:20:19 GMThttp://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/292324/http://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/292324/Sat, 19 Jan 2013 16:21:12 GMThttp://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/291726/http://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/291726/

If it wasn't completely official yet, it became so 12/12/2012, when I put the license plates on it:



WELCOME to the family, 1989 Caprice Classic Brougham!

The same day, I put the keys for both of my Caprice Classics on the "'Caprice' w/CC emblem" key rings that a friend sent me. Now, I just need to give my 1989 Caprice Classic its 1st detail.... As I put on the plates, I was excited but still had a twinge of sadness, which probably will never completely go away.

This 1989 Caprice Classic just sort of fell into my lap. A friend & I went to look at it, figuring it would be nothing more than an exercise in determining what I would NOT want in an '89 CC. In fact, it was just the opposite. Looking it over, it became clear that it was in top mechanical shape with a few cosmetic issues ... & the price was good. The seller actually lowered it for me b/c he wanted me to have it given my "car history". Brought it home, with the help of the same friend, 10/26/2012.


1979 Caprice Classic & 1989 Caprice Classic plates; which season do you prefer?



I was able to make a bit more "connection" w/my newest acquisition b/c I found some original documentation in the 1989 Caprice Classic's glove compartment. The ones pictured (not including documentation w/names & addresses) are: "A service signals checklist for the car owner"; "GM Maintenance Schedule for Passenger Cars"; "1989 Warranty & Owners Assistance Information"; 1989 Caprice owners manual; "Used Vehicle Disclosure Label" (from 1993); "Vehicle Invoice" (1993); "Dealer Certification for Emission Control Equipment" (06/09/1989); Pre-Delivery inspection papers (1989); Burtness Chevrolet Inc (WI) "maintenance folio"....



This was taken just after the new wire wheels were installed:

Got a question on '86 thru '93 LT1 TPI Roller Cam 350.
So this is a Hi-proformance engine right???
What happened to the 4 bolt mains?? I bought two of these engines and both are 2 bolt. Did GM stop makeing the 4 bolt main blocks?
The old blocks were easy to identify.
I guess with low comp now days they don't need 4 bolt.
I am going to run 10.5:1 or there abouts and turn around 6500, so no need for 4 bolt,,,,right??
thanks Dad ]]>Thu, 29 Nov 2012 23:02:31 GMThttp://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/289489/http://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/289489/Mon, 12 Nov 2012 12:59:41 GMThttp://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/288968/http://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/288968/Tue, 30 Oct 2012 01:47:43 GMThttp://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/288780/http://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/288780/Thu, 25 Oct 2012 21:00:44 GMThttp://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/287187/http://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/287187/Wed, 19 Sep 2012 00:31:28 GMT
