    Is it posible to run boost with a normal carb, if you put it in a box, and pressurize the box? Or do you still have to have a special blow though carb?

    It's a basic roll pin, It sounds like everything is right, try it with the shifter hooked up, I think your moving it too far.

    New block not what I thought, EOAE non roller questions.

    I'm not super sure, but I always heard that the non roller motors had stronger blocks. You can convert it to roller, but it's not cheap, if it were me, I'd get a roller block.

    All components for GT Ground effects?

    You don't have to have the metal strips, I just screwed the bottom in and on the top there is plenty of room for some very good 3m molding tape. :) Looks great, and works great.

    spring wont compress

    It sounds like your control arm is frozen, I've never come across that, but if it still doesn't compress at all with a new strut, then that spring is either meant to be on a train or your control arm is frozen.

    Tremec 3550 knocking noises??

    Could vibration wipe out main bearings? I had a flywheel that caused a major vibration, It only ran a few days like that, and I changed it, problem solved. Except now my oil pressure goes to nothing when it gets warm, and you can hear rattling at 2250 rpms. I know the mains are smoked, but this...

    How to rotate direction tires?

    When you drive, statistically you make more turns in one direction than the other. That would explain for more tire wear, also yes road crown, and even more, caster. If you look at the various auto manufactors caster specs, many call for more caster to one side, causing a pulling that isn't...

    I had it at 18, and it still didn't spark knock, lost some top end, so now I have it at 14, and it really isn't tuned, but it really hauls.

    How to rotate direction tires?

    I work at a tire shop, front to back is fine, it is actually recomended on passanger tires. SUV tires are recommended to be cris crossed, but if you keep rotated front to back and not switching sides, you will notice that the right side will wear out quicker, not that it will wear fast enough to...

    Calling all AOD guys, Shift Points??

    Plain and simple, If you use OD for acceleration, you will fry it, then you are an idiot. Just use OD for highway driving and your trans will live a long life.

    STOCK intake

    If you like the stock look and are looking for more alternatives, look into an explorer intake. You could get that ported too. It looks real stock to the average joe.

    GT-40 Heads, Good Buy?

    They will bolt up, but your first restriction is the intake, so you probably won't notice much of an improvement untill you get the intake taken care of. Search for tmoss, he ports the lower for $80 and it will flow enough for you to make quite a bit more power.

    need major help PLEASE

    How are the plugs and wires? Does it miss at idle, if so did you do a compression test? If it misses at idle, get some sparkplug wire pliers and pull of wires till you find the bad cylinder(s) and go from there.

    Real diff between A9L and A9P???

    I run a A9P. It does not retard timing between shifts, that is the only difference between the two. A9P is acutally better. With a A9L, I'd get a slight hesitation when I'd shift, with A9P, no hesitation. Oh yeah, the AOD has NO electronics. The AODE is the one with electronics.

    thought i had E7's but turns out i don't

    I would be upset, they probably just swapped them out that way they had a quick turn around. Go back there and complain.

    What is wrong

    Ok, before you go changing parts, your problem is going to be heat. When the condensor is hot, you have higher pressures, the temperature of the condensor actually just about equals the high side line pressure. So you're building too much pressure, and that's why it's kicking it off. Try blowing...
