    Where'd Ya Get Your Kenne Bell

    ok.......am I the only one who thinks that makes no sence. I mean, which way does the air charge flow? woulddn't the pressure be the same on both sides making the intercooler not flow at all!? that and if it does flow any, what % of the air charge that passes through the lower manifold...

    Air/Fuel ratio meter question????

    get yourself another 02sensor and a welt in bung so you can run a stand alone type setup for that thing. see, the computer reads the 02 sensor via voltage. so therefore if you piggyback another mechanism to it you will divide the signal by half becouse it has to go in 2 seperat directions. so...

    Upper/Lower control arms

    whatever you get, I suggest make it tubular, chromoly, and have spherical rod ends and none of that sold bushing crap where the bolts go straight through the end of the arm. some company makes them like that I forget which. but all that crap will do is make your suspension bind, kill your...

    Poll: replace lower manifold gasket or head gasket?

    head gasket all teh way intake gaskets don't push coolant OUT of your car, they suck it into the motor. those bubbles you see is compression leaking out of the cylanders that and a blowh head gasket matches all of your symtoms to a tee

    Would a 347 stroker swap require a new ECU?

    the MAF computer is very adaptive. I have heard of people running 450+hp with it you could leave it all stock, the worst that would happen is you might run a little dry up top depending on what your heads/ cam is. some bigger injectors and a matching MAF should set you straight and of...

    what cams come with .512 lift?

    been working on new motor. cleaning it up and all before I put it in I noticed that the motor had work done to it that would indicate a cam swap. i.e. intake manifold showed signs that it was removed not to long ago, timing cover bolts appeard not as dated as the rest of the motor and the...

    What i need-98 V6 stang v.s. 00 Integra GSR

    don't forget some m/t dr's so you can spray it right out of the hole. no p*ssy 35 shot either. if it were my car I would spray that b*tch 75 and thats just a starting point for me you're gonna mushroom stamp him to the 1/8 mile and the spray should be enough for you to hold him off on the...

    13.46@ 103mph

    your entire engine is a 'system' per-say and all the components have to be able to work as a team. so a super big top end cam on say stock heads and an intake that can't go over say 5500rpm won't get you very far

    5.0 egr elimimator

    I haven't had a chance to do it yet, but in theory, if you eliminate the egr, and stop running the coolant and exaust gas up there, you will bring your inake temps down

    400RWHP + 20MPG... How to do it??

    becouse he is spinning higher when he is crusing he is putting his motor in an RPM where it operates more efficiently. if you have a h/c/i setup that doesn't kick in until 3000 rpm what makes you think lugging it at 1200 rpm is going to help you. force a motor into an rpm range for which...

    400RWHP + 20MPG... How to do it??

    I don't think the whole % thing on drivetrains is all that accurate. it might work out if you have say, 300hp. but lets say you put a 800hp motor on the same drivetrain. I just don't see how the same trans is now going to soak up like 70 more hp just becouse you got a bigger motor. same...

    400RWHP + 20MPG... How to do it??

    diddn't hot rod magazine do a thing a while back where they had a bunch of cars that ran 12's and got 20+mpg. notrouse cars diddn't count. there was a guy wth a s/c'd 347 that got it. there were also different cars running grand national swaps and 2.3 turbo swaps. either way, I think the...

    400RWHP + 20MPG... How to do it??

    are you talking on a 302.......I dobt it. you can get to 400hp no problem. but you won't have the tq at like 2000rpm that you need to see great milage. one of the reasons like engines like the LS7 can get like 30mpg out of 7.0 liters is the fact that it is very torqy, becouse of its cubes it...
