    HELP!! Should I use clearcoat over newly painted emblems?

    Best way is to tape off the chrome will be tedious but it's the best way. Another route you can take is to take a piece of clean cardboard of heavy paper spray the clearcoat on till it creates a puddle and use a fine brush to "paint" it on. Problem with that is you will need to sand it so it's...

    Allen Engine Development revII Supercharger kit for 99-04 gt's

    It's a eaton M90 supercharger same thing the saleen kit uses. You could buy a KB 6# kit and make more power than this blower. Not a bad blower just not as effecient as a centrifugal or twin screw. For $3800 you can also get a vortech 9# kit and put down anywhere from 350rwhp to 370rwhp

    To the guys that went on the NW Suburbs Cruise Friday

    Jill doesn't have a digital so she needs to get her ass over to one of the shows with us so we can get some pics of her car. I scrape all the time going over speedbumps with my springs and my Dr. Gas X-pipe damn thing is like having LT's on.

    Another for the books: Accufab TB/plenum dyno

    Trin I put down 240rwhp 281 rwtq with only the Dr. Gas mid pipe and flowmaster catback for performance mods under the hood is bone stock including the motorcraft paper filter. Not a bad increase for just exhaust work. Get a good mid pipe and some gears you'll see some good improvements :nice:

    420 rwhp on a s-trim vs 420 rwhp on a novi2000, which has a better curve

    I'd get the Novi since you'll be getting a built short block down the road the Novi has way more potential where as the S-Trim is limited it'll make good power to 500 or so with head work but can only handle 20psi so your be limited down the road. Plus you could always add a little nitrious...

    Bunch of questions about the 4.6 motor. Please respond!

    99+ all the way they have so far the best heads and intake out. 99+gt vs a 5.0 the 99 will take it stock for stock. The 5.0 motors have been out since the 60's or 50's can't remember but because of this parts are extrememly cheap. The mod crazy days of the late 80's and 90's had a huge push...

    First Track Times...a little dissappointed

    I learned that by reaving her up to 4k or higher rpm and slipping the clutch I could pull 1.9-2.0x 60's with all weather michelin pilots with the only suspension mods being frpp c-springs. I'd shift around 5300-5400rpm since our cars stock stop making power just over the 5k mark. Sounds like...

    Dr. Gas X conjunction.

    To weld in the Dr. Gas conjunction you would need to modify the H to the point where it would cost you about the same to buy the X-pipe and have it installed. The H connection further back by your U-joints where the Dr. Gas X fits just behind the flywheel or torque converter. Here's a better...
