Some of these I wrote and some came from other members but they are all very informative and helpful. I just wanted to share them with my friends here on this forum.

Agreed. Since the forum will no longer post member submitted tech tips, looks like a 3rd party site is a work-around option.

Check it out and see... I am not sure if they have that. Most are member submitted repairs but it won't hurt to post a question like that on their site. Maybe somebody has done it and just never actually wrote a Tech Tip on it.

Yes they have a babes section... lets try to keep our eyes on the ball here. The purpose of this thread was to share the great Tech Tips. If you guys keep linking the babes section here Mojo is gona lock this down. The purpose of this thread was to help folks out and I can already see where this will wind up.

I thought I was helping you guys here cause we no longer have a Tech Tips section... please only reply to this post if you have a comment on the Tech Tips.

Back in October 2004 I authored a tech tip for changing spark plug wires on LT1's, based on how I went about the job on my '95. I felt then and still feel there is a distinct need for a tip about spark plug wires on the LT1/LT4 because it is a recurring question asked in C4 Tech forum.

I went through the process for tech tip submission and the forum software completed the process successfully. But the tip never showed up.

Not sure if no one else has submitted any C4 Tech tips since mid 2004, but there seems to be no tips dated beyond then that are listed. This, in combination with the tip I posted never being posted plus never receiving any feedback on it such as "it is being reviewed" etc., made me blurt out the above statement. It just *looks* like the tech tips aren't being managed any longer, as far as new information being submitted by members goes.

I have the entire tip I authored saved as an MS Word 2000 document, just in case. I have periodically posted it in C4 tech forum in reply to guys posts asking how to change LT1 wires, and guys seem to find it to be thorough and helpful.

I have posted in the past, after noticing the tip not being listed in C4 Tech Tips, and sort of complained as to why it wasn't, but it was a general post and not addressed to a mod or the admin, just a sort of "why is taking so long to process a tech tip submission..." kind of post. No admin or mod replied, so I figured it wasn't a priority and didn't feel it worth nagging anyone about.
