    Harmonic Balancer bolt removal

    ..with engine on stand(dumb, I know, I know). Well, my buddy and I pulled his motor, almost everything is off, but now we're stumped on how to get the balancer bolt off w/o the engine in the car/hooked up to the tranny. We tried using an impact, but it's not working. Any ideas? Thanks

    Damn motor mount

    What's the best way to get the driver's side motor mount unbolted from the k-frame? We already broke a flex handle(3/8) and a 3in extension(1/2). Think a universal joint would be the next best thing? Thanks

    Fuel rail removal

    I can't get the fuel rail off of my buddy's 5.0. It's all unbolted, but it seems like it's stuck at the injectors, don't they just pull out? Do they screw out? Any help is appreciated.

    blower cam and heads?

    what would a good blower cam and head combo be? it'll be running a track heat intake w/a vortech s-trim. I was thinking maybe TW heads and an Ed Curtis grind, but I'm not sure. probably around 1600 can go into the head/valvetrain thanks guys

    Just as the title states, I have smoke coming out of my dipstick. I searched and it seems that I might have a bad PCV valve. Is there anything else this could be? If not, I have a PCV valve waiting to go in, I just didn't want to do it until it was time. Maybe this also explains my...

    Code Help..

    I'm gettin 81, 31, 66, and 96. I know what they mean, and I know that 81 and probably 31 are due to me not having any smog equipment. I don't know what to do about 66 or 96(possibly because I have an electric fuel pump?). Any help is appreciated. Thanks

    SPOUT circuit open and ECT out of range

    I ran the KOER test on my 90 5.0 and I got codes 21, 94, 44, and 18. I know that 94 and 44 are due to my smog equipment being removed, but 18 and 21, I don't know too much about. From my understanding, the SPOUT circuit being open means I'm running at base timing. So can I just get a new...
