after putting my 85 camaro back together with new motor an new paint under hood and reparing any wire harness probs i now can not use my highbeams. As soon as i click them on i loose all lights in an out for anywhere to 3 to half hour. checked all grounds still no idea help. The car is a 85 z28 converted to a 530 horse carberated samll block from a 305 tune port

I would think you are missing a ground from the body to the engine, Use a booster cable, hooked on to a good engine point and the other to a good body point. Try your lights now, If they go out, leave the lights on, and try for a better connection on your cables,
Check the groub cable from the battery to the engine.

that was the first thing i checked and when i put the wiring harness an engine in i used new straps from block to body block to frame and battery to block and frame weird only on high beams oh well worse problem now took my daughter for a ride tonite and lost my tranny (700r4 manual valve body) as soon as we went for third gear. thank god for rev limiter tranny is now over full no gears but park probably the pump, thank god my buddy owns a tranny shop an he built it.
