    MM Lower Control Arm Install this weekend

    Well, worked on the car for about 2.5 hours tonight. My buddy worked on the lca's, I worked on pulling my power rack (flaming river install). Both lca's are out and I assembled the maximum motorsport ones, so everything is ready to go back together. Depending on how much a pain the new arms...

    MM Lower Control Arm Install this weekend

    I'm doing mm control arms starting tonight. I had the rearend out of the car last year and had to replace a siezed lca bolt so I'm not expecting any delays of that nature this time. That will be the one thing that may happen, the bolts tend to sieze inside the bushing and NOTHING will get it...

    Effects of running NO O2 sensors?

    My mass-air car ran fine without the o2's. It got bad gas mileage, but ran fine. In fact, I just had the exhaust redone a few weeks ago and put the o2's back in and now I've got a damn surging idle.

    No response when I tried to start my car...starter?

    I don't get white smoke, so this might not be it... but, I have longtubes and a couple times now the starter wire has burned through and grounds out on the headers... instant no start. One of these times I should redo that wire rather than keep wrapping it in fiberglass cloth :)

    The rules depend on the sanctioning body, but both IHRA and NHRA require a cutoff switch.

    Just Got A 3.8 Taurus Fan NEED HELP PLZ

    For the fuse, get a fusible link. It just solders inline with the main power wire. Do you have Greggs Distributors in Vancouver? We have them here in Alberta and I got a 60 amp Hella relay from them, works good.

    I've been looking at caster/camber plates (UPR, Steeda, etc) and they change part numbers for pre-'90 and '90-'93. What is the difference?

    Proform mini torque starter - anyone use?

    Wondering how well it works? It's cheaper than the Ford, just wondering if I'll regret it.

    wheel studs

    .615 knurl. But, you'll need a 39/64 drill bit to open up the holes a bit to get the stud in.

    Why won't this car start???

    I posted a week or two ago about it. It was very slow turning over. Well, after brain storming with my brother (his car) we remembered that when the headers got coated they coated the ground welded to 'em so we removed it. I installed a new ground and it turned over much better. So, we...

    Finally: Official How-To: 3.8l Fan Install

    I've attached my wiring diagram. I ground switched the setup and it works great. I used a Hella 70 amp relay, nice piece. The switch does not have to be for high amperage loads. As for mounting the fan, I just dropped it into the bottom clips and then used a tranny cooler mount kit for the...

    what size studs for my draglites?

    Yes, but the stud is still inside the wheel they're so darn thick. It won't pass tech.

    what size studs for my draglites?

    Get the three inch studs for the track. You'll also need a 39/64ths drill bit to drill out the rotors for the .615 knurl.

    adapter for an autometer water temp gauge.

    You can probably find one at an auto store, but it would be big. The thermocouple would be completely inside the fittings and not in the coolant. Being an aluminum intake, you can drill and tap it no problem.

    Has anyone installed the Holly Systemax from summit

    What's junk about the heads? I'm pretty sure the heads are made by Brodix so I don't see the head itself being an issue... maybe it's the hardware?

    Abbreviations

    That's probably a good idea. Things like MAF, EGR, TB, IAC, SN95, EECIV, 1.7RR, SFC, LCA, UCA, 90/10, 70/30, CAI... lots of stuff we use I guess that a newbie wouldn't know.
