Of course, in order to be successful, you'll want to keep all the principles concerning form, scale, composition, and proportion in mind. Cook each dish in a separate oven, and when they're finished, you can switch one oven to warming mode and keep on cooking in the other. In response to complaints of poor acceleration, the 2.0-liter four introduced in mid-1982 was made standard for 1983. Yet despite higher compression and a switch to throttle-body fuel injection (to replace a carburetor), horsepower dropped by four to 86, though torque stayed about the same. The H.O. V-6 had port fuel injection, replacing the carburetor used previously on this engine. The 1985 Chevrolet Cavalier was introduced with a new optional engine and a few minor changes, following a highly successful year in 1984. The big engine news arrived late in the year in the form of a High-Output (H.O.) 2.8-liter V-6 similar to that found in the Citation X-11 and Celebrity.

The 1987 Chevrolet Cavalier featured several powertrain revisions as the model entered its fifth season, but little else was new. The 1986 Chevrolet Cavalier featured two sportier series to complement the V-6 engine introduced in 1985. The pair was topped by the Z24, offered in two-door coupe or three-door hatchback body styles. But the V-6 now offered a five-speed as well -- a new Getrag-designed manual that could cope with the V-6's torque. As much as I've wanted to post at least a recipe or 2 during this long absence, I simply haven't been able to do so until now. Flares - At least four (4) flares required. Continuing as the base powerplant was the 2.0-liter 88-horsepower four with throttle-body injection, now rated at 88 horsepower. Four body styles in three trim levels gave customers a wide choice of Cavaliers. Yet despite the short model year, king size fitted sheet more than 383,000 Cavaliers were sold, making Cavalier not only the most popular Chevrolet but also the most popular car in America -- again.

Yet sales more than doubled from the previous year, reaching an impressive 462,611 units -- making Cavalier the new number-one seller not only at Chevrolet but in the entire United States. The 1982 Chevrolet Cavalier debuted to bolster the company's subcompact lineup, which had been represented of late by the antiquated -- but highly popular -- Chevette. Nevertheless, nearly 200,000 copies of Chevy's new subcompact hit the road, though some sales were undoubtedly at the expense of a Chevette or Citation. Considering the drop in prices, sales didn't increase very much: from 195,000 in 1982 to about 218,500 in 1983 -- only 627 of which were convertibles. Yet they accounted for more than 46,000 orders in 1986, better than 10 percent of total Cavalier sales that reached 432,000 -- enough for another first-place showing. The 2.8-liter V-6, made optional in 1986, gained similar enhancements, which boosted horsepower from 120 to 130. The changes also trimmed the installed weight by about 35 pounds. Changes to the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder earned it a Generation II label. The 1983 Chevrolet Cavalier included a number of changes for its sophomore model year, most notably the addition of a convertible variant. The 1984 Chevrolet Cavalier got quad rectangular headlights and a new grille for this model year -- the Cavalier's first appearance change since being introduced.

Pitt, Wilberforce and others had labored for years to break the slave industry's stranglehold on Parliament, and when they finally got the necessary votes to destroy the slavers and vote Abolition into law, Grenville was the lucky man who happened to be in office at the time, so technically gets credit. In other 1985 news, all two-door Cavaliers got a revised instrument panel with center console and optional digital instrumentation. Sole powerplant on Cavaliers was still the throttle-body-injected 2.0-liter four, rated at 86-horsepower, down somewhat from 1983. Four- and five-speed manual transmissions were offered, as well as a three-speed automatic. Prices rose a bit this year, and Cavaliers were criticized for being rather expensive once optioned to the level that most buyers wanted them. Cavalier prices ran about $1,500 more than a comparable Chevette, which gave some buyers sticker shock. In an effort to hold prices down, Chevy stripped some of the Cavalier's standard equipment for 1983 and renamed some models.
