hatchsub Posted February 14, 2010 Author Share Posted February 14, 2010 Just got new window weather seals for a 69 camaro. Will let everyone know how they work out. Just looking at them they look the same but i wont know until i pull the existing ones out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hatchsub Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 (edited) Just an update for everyone...69 camaro window seals do fit...sorta. They dont work correctly though. The shape of the factory seal is different and makes a tight seal in the upper corner where the window seals meet. the camaro ones are shaped differently in this area and therefore do not seal properly. They do work in a pinch though. I have been using it just as a temporary seal for the past few weeks until i get the real deals. The only downside is genuine subaru window seals are friggin expensive . Just a heads up to anyone who has one of these coupes and wants new seal...gotta get subaru seals. And just so everyone knows...ive been driving it daily for the past two weeks. Runs like a clock . Edited March 4, 2010 by hatchsub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkankinPickle Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 (edited) Some 2nd-gen pics, in case you haven't seen them before... Edited March 15, 2010 by SkankinPickle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkankinPickle Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Here's pic of the dual exhaust port from the Dual-carb EA-81 RX motor (which had reversed intake and exhaust valves) and a custom header (maybe factory, not sure). Before the days of easy EJ swaps this was my dream. These motor's exist, there were quite a few exported to New Zeland inside coupes, that might be a good place to possibly find one.

hatchsub Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 Yea i gave up trying to find one of those dual carb motors. I think i can honestly get the same or more power from a worked over USDM EA81. Thanks for the pics though. So a bit of an update on the coupe....went out to it today only to find the carpet completely soaked. Windshield leaks and the rear window seeps/leaks too. Awesome. Off to locate gaskets and have a window place do it up for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyko Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Keep telling yourself that, Steve. My Brat is going to destroy your coupe. :-p Sorry to hear about the leaks though. Evidently that's one area my Brat and your coupe are equals and it sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evidently that's one area my Brat and your coupe are equals and it sucks. Drop that motor in the brat and come out for carlisle. Not that ill have my hipo ea81 done yet but..u should come to carlisle anyways lol. And yea this leak really blows. The carpet must have weighed 50 pounds and it was completely filled with water. I have i rung out and hanging to dry in the garage. I have siliconed the windows for now but i doubt that will help much if at all. anything is worth a shot though.
