    Fuses keep blowing!! help

    problems like this are sometimes hard to trace so you'll need to be patient. i'd check to see exactly what's running on that circuit and eliminate one by one. ie if the lighter is on that circuit, disconnect it and see if it still blows the fuse. odds are though, that the problem is an old...

    My nasty car needs lowering, HELP! 92 vertgt!

    FWIW i would not buy the intrax springs. if you absolutely need to go that low buy a better spring. you also might want to consider a front coil-over setup. -steve

    Clutch Interlock Switch (Theft)

    i've never tried it or known anyone who did, but it sounds good in theory. if you ran the wires real neat and clean and put the switch in the ashtray (or hidden better) as well as the fuel cut off switch then you've got yourself a cheap anti-theft device. -steve

    About to purchase 91 GT; have few questions.

    Thinking of extrude hone my stock upper H.O intake...what can I open the TB to?

    highbredcloud - cool stuff man, i'm doing the same thing. it's definately not the most cost effective way to go but, like you said, i love the idea of popping the hood to show off my "100% stock" motor ;) let me know what route you decide to go on the upper (extrude hone or cutting & porting)...

    N/A stock shortblock 110mph+ traps guys, I got a question

    yep, it's called powershifting and it's worth a couple tenths. not if you're quick enough. :nice: well, like racing it is abuse on the parts, but that's the price of going fast. if you're on a stock t-5 and powershifting, well, let's just say you're on borrowed time. -steve

    Are these Eibach drag springs? Please help.Pic.

    cardudeusa & BlownStangGT said it....those are stockers. eibachs will have both the name and a part # on them. -steve

    dumb, horse power question

    madonionrs- at the risk of starting a pi$$ing match (which is not my intention), i honestly doubt he gained 5-10rwhp from a cat-back and k&n on a stock motor. the k&n was worth probably 1rwhp and the cat-back maybe a couple as well. i'm just trying to keep the #'s realistic. honestly, i hope...

    New heads and speed density

    since you've already got an aftermarket upper.... definitely get the edelbrocks or other good head like AFR. you could make decent power off ported stockers but with your intake a good set of heads will make your car sing. -steve

    dumb, horse power question

    230hp at the flywheel if you're lucky. those mods aren't saying much.... -steve

    03 Cobra Rims

    oops, i didn't check your sig. the tubular a-arms should have ample clearance. i don't foresee any issues with the strut either, but that may depend on other suspension mods as well. anyhow, seems to me like you'll only need to worry about clearance at the fender-lips. let me know how it...

    engine stroking

    the .030 overbore is not required, but if you're rebuilding why wouldn't you? some guys will just give it a hone to save money as long as the pistons are still in good shape. and yes, to my knowledge ALL 347's need the block clearanced for the connecting rods. -steve

    03 Cobra Rims

    it isn't likely to just "bolt up and go", but can be made to work. the rim will rub the factory a-arm at full lock so you'll need steering limiters (or just make the conscious effort not to turn all the way) or some clearancing via modification/replacement. depending on your suspension/tire...

    Supercharged and DEAD at 3000rpm

    sounds like detonation ate that plug. what heat range was it? -steve

    80mm Pro-M MAM too big for my setup?

    yeah, they look way better than that ugly stock POS. i just wanted to make sure you knew what you were getting. I'll bet the 11hp was on a 600-700hp car. -steve

    Front wheels rub with a-arm, help

    that's unheard of on stock rims/suspension. sounds really odd, maybe your steering rack has more travel than stock (if it's not stock) :shrug: ttt for better suggestions. :nice: -steve

    80mm Pro-M MAM too big for my setup?

    i can't answer your question, but...don't expect to see any hp gain with the powerpipe, do it for the looks if you want, but not the power. JMHO, -steve

    Speedo Gear

    no special tools. just follow you speedo cable down to where it goes into the tail-shaft of your trans. its held in by 1 bolt (~1/2" i think). once you pull that out you'll see the gear, which is held by 1 small c-clip if i remember correctly. very easy stuff. :nice: -steve

    Supercharged and DEAD at 3000rpm

    definitely sounds like an ignition issue to me. either you timing is way out of whack (but you said it's been checked), or you're getting blow-out as mentioned. i'd close down your gaps to ~.030-.033 and see if it helps. also, in the future you might want to consider iridium plugs. they're...

    Can you guys help me pick an intake ?

    your setup's pretty mild to go for an intake IMHO. a cobra/explorer/gt40 would be a good match, or ported stock lower as mentioned....but i personally think you might want to go for heads first. more money but better returns. what are your goals for the car? -steve
