Miko K Posted December 24, 2006 Report Posted December 24, 2006 I am trying to find a billet gas door for my Cutlass. It's a 6" diameter, seems like everywhere I go, they only have them listed by aplication and not by size. Can you guys help? Kinda fill in the blanks for these vehicles, if you have one and it's not a problem to measure the gas door. I don't want to go and start measuring people's gas doors. Looking for 6" even. Thanks.

19Cutlass94 Posted December 24, 2006 Report Posted December 24, 2006 Well the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has a 7" gas door. The chevy and the GMC are basically the same truck so Im going to say that the door is also the same there. In which you could prolly say that for almost all the GM trucks listed there... Quote
Cam'ron Posted December 24, 2006 Report Posted December 24, 2006 are you talking about putting a shiny silver gas door on you car? last time i checked your cars want silver was it? Quote
Miko K Posted December 25, 2006 Author Report Posted December 25, 2006 are you talking about putting a shiny silver gas door on you car? last time i checked your cars want silver was it? I have polished shift knob, instument cluster bezel, pedals, battery tray, reverse lights, blower, blower pulley, alternator, under-blower intercooler, throttle body, intake elbow, liquid intercooler, "cold tank", turbo compressor housing, blow off valve, breather filter and by the way... gas door. And a bunch of carbon fiber items, but that's another story... Thanks for the replays, guys! Looks like the mustang and focus , VW beetle all have 6" doors, but they are really expensive, so I am waiting on a response from a company for a F150, that was listed to have a 6" door at one place and 6 1/4" at another, it costs $23.50 shipped. I don't think a brushed aluminum one ( pic) is too much, the polished ones are a little too blingy.

Psych0matt Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 brushed aluminum would look so much better, but then again thats coming from the guy who despises chrome Quote
CSI_MuNkY Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 brushed aluminum would look so much better, but then again thats coming from the guy who despises chrome x2 I've always hated chrome, except on a muscle car.... However I do have a soft spot for black chrome Jamie Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 I've always liked them on certain trucks and some cars like a Mustang or something, but I think it would look nothing but tacky on a W. Quote

On mine, it will be the last thing someone will look at. If they have time to do that... I AM going for 500FWHP, if the getrag holds up. Quote
intern8tion9l Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 do you have any current pics of that car? Quote
Miko K Posted December 26, 2006 Author Report Posted December 26, 2006 couple months old, cardomain in my sig. Quote
intern8tion9l Posted December 26, 2006 Report Posted December 26, 2006 damn, well get some shots when its back together. whats your experience with the spec clutch? good stuff? Quote
Miko K Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Posted December 27, 2006 It will take a while, I just finished the first head (P&P) and it lost a lot of weight, still have the second to do and then the turbo headers, wiring and "making it all look pretty", before any beauty shots. Probably late april. The spec stage 3 (in my buddy's Jetta 3, 2.0L 8V+turbo @15PSI) feels really nice-it is soft like a factory clutch and at first I thought that a clutch that soft would slip when I gun it, but had more grip than needed. Then again, his car puts out 239ft. lb. TQ and he has 205/40/17 shitty tires, so we will see. Mine is rated for 450FT LBS, but I plan to put out 500ft lbs and I got some scary lookin slicks, so I will definitely put it to the test and I will let you guys know. Quote
intern8tion9l Posted December 27, 2006 Report Posted December 27, 2006 sweet. i have the centerforce dual friction which is now slipping when it gets hot. i'm really pissed about it and not looking forward to pulling the tranny when i was trying to avoid that all along Quote
Miko K Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Posted December 27, 2006 Well, eventually you gonna have to. My clutch is the one for the 2.8L http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/price/Pontiac/Grand_Prix/SPEC/Clutches-Flywheels/Clutches/part/Domestic_Stage_3 and while you have the transaxle out, it's probably a good idea to get the shift shaft machined to accept sealed ball bearings, because the factory needle bearings are the worst design ever, looks at my cardomain page for pics.

intern8tion9l Posted December 27, 2006 Report Posted December 27, 2006 is there any chance that i could get a disk and have it be compatable with the centerforce pressure plate? by the way, i'm sorry for totally jacking your thread Quote
Miko K Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Posted December 27, 2006 Don't worry, not a big deal- I could care less about a gas door. Another hassle. I don't see why can't you use the centerforce pressure plate, but I doubt that they sell the dics only. Quote
