1989 (MCMLXXXIX) was a common year starting on Sunday (link displays 1989 Gregorian calendar). It was also the last year of the 1980s.

It was a historical turning point for the wave of revolutions that swept the Eastern Bloc, starting in Poland. Collectively known as the Revolutions of 1989, they heralded the death of the Soviet Union two years later and the beginning of the post-Cold War era of United States dominance in world affairs.

What is the most economical way to upgrade my engine on a 1989 Chevy Caprice Classic?
Q. I have decided to take my 1989 chevy caprice to the max. It currently has a 305 engine with about 95,000 supposedly original miles on it that runs fine but im not really impressed. I want to begin planning on an engine swap but really don't know much about it. Should i try to have it rebuilt into a 350? Is that even possible? Will i have to rebuilt the transmission too? What about suspension? Are there any resources online where i can do comprehensive research? Any comments and suggestions are welcome. How much am i loking at?

A. The car is an 89--you can do an entire motor swap to a 350--using a Jasper rebuild--warranted for 5000 miles and 3 years--but you still have a tired trans and probably need a suspension update--these are extremely important if you want to really do an old car over--so figure about 6000 for a motor, trans, suspension, brakes, exhaust and front end parts--get a shop to agree to do it all at once--not one thing at a time. The car will be pretty good to drive and cheaper than a new one. please forget beating the car because it has a bigger motor--the car doesn't need to be raced or abused---it is still an 89 and anything can happen--I have always doubled the life of my Suburbans by doing a motor and trans replacement--the brakes and… [cont.]

A. Could need a tune-up, something like water could be in your fuel. It's not uncommon to get water in gas. Might need to add some gas drier to your tank.

How to put a carseat in a 1989 Camaro?
Q. We are having a baby tomorrow, and have a Safety 1st Car Seat and a 1989 Camaro. The seat can go in the back passenger side, but the front seat touches the carseat no matter how far forward it is. We wouldn't use the front seat with the car seat behind it, but would it be safer to put the seat in the front? (Rear facing, no airbags, as far back as possible?) Ir to take out the front seat completely? Thanks for your input!

A. if you take the car and carseat to your local police station or fire station, they will install it for you, and they know which way is best for different types of cars.
