Re: parting out a 85 iroc in illinois

The heads will be costly to ship. make me a offer on them

Windshield is perfect, however I dont want to take it out...i did one before and it took a while. A buddy of mine was interested in it as well. Make me a offer on it if you want to take it out, or have someone do it.

barring a swap, 85, tpi, equal l69 heads, "vette" l69 cam, non roller, first year lb9, alot like the one i pulled out of my 85 t/a.

that engine, spewing every liquid i put into it out, and leaking air from every port it had and some it wasn't supoosed to have, STILL ran better then an l03, pushed the t/a to a 15.4 at 88. i like the 85 tpi's lol..

Re: parting out a 85 iroc in illinois

I'm interested in the rear end. Can you give me some more info on it? What's the condition of steering wheel? Does it have a leather auto shift **** or leather e-brake handle? If so, what is the condition of those?

Re: parting out a 85 iroc in illinois

just helping the seller out here.

85, first year for tpi, which was the top option engine. which means the rear is most likely a 9 bolt with the iron calipers 10.5 in disc brakes (non PBR). gear ratio can be either 2.73 or 3.23 i believe.

if it's a 9 bolt, which it probably is, it's posi, however it's a friction disc posi, which had a reputation as early as the late eighties for wearing out and becoming open rears. however they also have a reputation for being a strong rear end, but not one you can find parts for.

Re: parting out a 85 iroc in illinois

I'm interested in the wiper arms/wipers and the bumper parking lights if they are fairly clear. Shipping would be to Washington state 98239. Thanks

Re: parting out a 85 iroc in illinois

thanks rockit for the help.

I believe its still the 305 motor, there was a rumor from a previous owner that it had a 350 bored to a 355 but i doubt it does..i'll find out when i pull the motor out and run some numbers.

The rear end needs a new caliper is all i know so far and maybe a break line. its not out yet. shift **** was gone when i got it. i'll check out the ebrake handle and see how it looks.

I do have a a/c bracket, it will be out in the next couple days when i pull motor. $8 shipped for it.

Wiper arems appear to be in good shape, no wipers on it though. someone swipped those. lenses are foggy looking. $15 shipped for the wiper arms.

suspension is all stock.
