    Any car insurance gurus out there?

    The answer to this depends quite a bit on state laws and the particular companies underwriting rules. But if she isn't licensed it shouldn't have an impact.

    Breaking in Ceramic Coated Headers

    I don't care who you got it from, anyone that told you a flat tappet cam doesn't require break in is wrong; end of discussion.

    It is not really that low (it is really that color, and does really have polished Porsche wheels) One of the guys on the Vortex P-Choped it lower telling him it would look better like that (not). Wow, for $4800.00 (shoe polished on the windsheild) and rough interior, it better be a big block...

    Ah, Proud to say I've never seen it, although from the previews, I think this is more that style. Skywalker, You know anything about that Red Comet on 92? Original Big Block car?

    I've also got a pair of 195/65/15's (but only two) they are too good to throw away, but I got no use for em.... The 225's came on my Jetta on some crap wheels, so I did this to it: Really if either of em will help you out, you're welcome to em... Be doing me a favor to move them out...

    Tell you what, Go to the pull a part, pick up 4 steelies. Then, I've got a set of 225/50/15 Toyos I'll give you to get you by until you can score some nicer wheels and tires.

    In need Dent puller 101

    Absolutely correct. Not only will the holes give rust a place to start, the puller will over pull the area around the hole, and make it much harder to repair.

    OT: Firebirds and BMWs (Don't Shoot me, please)

    Ooops, Carb Help please?

    Should be standard 5/16 fuel hose. It should only have a short piece (maybe 2 inches long) going from the metal fuel line to the fuel filter. Any parts store should be able to supply it, or a new section and the proper clamps usually come with new filters.

    transmisson go through the radiator?

    If it is an automatic, then yes it does. You could just loop the two lines together with rubber hose and a couple of clamps to move it around. (not drive any distance) Make sure that the hose won't come off or you will have a HUGE mess. :D

    I'm getting some free turbos...

    An R32 is NOT a 1.8t, it is a narrow angle 3.2l six (VR6) Normally aspirated. They are also more like 240hp with all wheel drive. All the 1.8t people dump these things when they get serious about HP. (which is I guess why someone gave you 10 of them) They are just to small to be worth the...

    Cam Duration and Stall Converter...do I have enough?

    It would help to know. tire size: exact cam specs (Whose cam? What converter did they tell you to run? What is the "mimimum" rpm?) expected torque curve of the engine. I'm inclined to say try it and see how it works but be prepared to change the gear. A 3.73 or 3.90 gear would raise...

    Cam Duration and Stall Converter...do I have enough?

    I too think if any thing you have too much stall (or not enough gear) I would think your cruise RPM is going to be below your stall speed which can't be a good thing. IMHO

    Just purchased a 65 fastback.

    You might want to post the list number off of the carb. It is on the front of the choke air horn. should look like 0-1850-2 or 0-3310-11 the munbers below that would be the date code. Holley carbs can blow power valves from backfires (most of them anyway) and it is quite possible it is just...

    Just purchased a 65 fastback.

    A leak down test you introduce compressed air into the cylinder and a guage measures the percentage of leakage. When doing your compression test do a wet test as well. After you do all the cylinders normally. go back and do them again but add some oil to the cylinder beforehand. Use an old...
