    Abaco DBX installed car wont run right..

    yep, what I would do in your case is since u need to have throttle to keep car running manual adjust the idle stop screw on the t-body now so u dont have sit in the car to keep it running, than disconnect the iac connector, the idle should drop about a couple hundred rpm or so, turn the idle...

    have a question creating a MAF transfer with my Pro-M flow sheet

    What I did was make a low end reading that was proportional to the others near it. for instance if you have a voltage of .75 and the next point is 1.1 add the two voltages and divide by two than use that as your extra point and shift the rest of the table up, same goes for your air volume...

    Abaco DBX installed car wont run right..

    every car is different imo, when i made the switch to 42lbers my car was running way lean to the tune of a 22:1 AFR during the base startup fuel table period to the point i needed to richen the table which is the opposite of what I've heard from other people in the past (although I'm running a...

    Engine Pops and wont Rev at all

    I would do simple basics first, check your firing order, pull the plugs and inspect them, see if you're getting spark, when you turn the key does your fuel pump prime (do you hear the motor), unplug your maf sensor and try starting the car (if it starts and idle's better your maf may be dirty...

    Need a clutch for 500+ rwhp

    I've got a spec stage 3 and not really sure why people think they are hard to press in compared to my brothers king cobra clutch, my spec is easier. I did replace my cable, cable quadrant, add a billet adjuster and new clutch fork when I did mine though.

    trunk mounted batteries

    I used 20 feet and had maybe 2-3 feet of excess left over, but I routed my cable on the inside of the driver side fender, into the car along the floor rails, came through the carpet behind the driver seat and underneath the rear seats. You can always chop some off so if your long it won't matter.

    TIMING ANYBODY???

    Warm car up, than shut off. Pull your spout connector (1" grey clip connected to your distributor harness wiring), connect your inductive clamp from your timing gun to the #1 spark plug wire. Power your timing gun to the cars battery and start the car. Set your gun to your desired timing (8-16...

    headlight and taillight question

    Two ways to go replace or restore, the sell lens refinishing kits where u buff out and polish your old lens back to a semi clear finish. Or the other option is replace them with new lens kits, any of the big suppliers sell these full light kits for the front and rear of the car. The front kits...

    ebay hoods?

    I can tell you no matter who you buy any body part from it's going to need work to make it fit like a factory item, whether it's fenders, ground effects, hoods, or bumpers they will all need work to look perfect. I own a cervini's cobra rear bumper, an HO fibertrends 3" cowl hood, abc exclusive...

    Still struggling with boost gauge

    another note once you finally have the gauge plumbed, it's possible you won't see any boost at idle and think it's broken. Generally it's working as it should just that you won't see it build enough boost on the gauge untill you rev the engine high enough to build pressure. This usually happens...

    Car doesnt go past 3,500RPM

    the only things that comes to mind is a physical rev limiter like a msd box has, a built in software rev limiter in the eec not sure if you have a chip or do any tuning. I've had the tfi module issues like most people but it wouldn't limit the rpm rather it would suddenly miss and cut in and out...

    Aftermarket Mass Air & Sensors

    My personal opinion I wouldn't go lower than 30's on a 347, most people even go higher to allow room to grow in the future. You could probably get away with jacking the fuel pressure up a little higher to get more out of the injectors with 24's and still make power but your your not suposed to...

    Slow throttle return

    My first guess would be you have a vacuum leak some where. check all the lines for cracks, and check around the upper and lower intake as well.

    I bought my H/C/I combo, now.......pushrods?

    Pushrods are one of those parts you buy all of them new together. Also the easiest way to save time and money is to get a pushrod checker. It allows you to measure what length you will need with the components intact. Unless you have a completely stock car it's impossible to guesstimate what...

    intake question

    generally from a performance point of view carb vs efi are usually pretty even. I think it really comes down to driveability and reliiabality if anything. Carbs are old skool, easier to tune due to their simplicity, and they offer great performance in ideal conditions. On the other hand efi...
