    Time to perk up my DD, what mods next?

    Oops, I guess I forgot to list some of its other mods. It also has 3.73's, subframe connectors, and upper and lower control arms. The car already is in a great state of tune (recent tune up with all fresh fluids) with the timing set @ 14 degrees . The only bad part about buying the FMS...

    moroso intake?

    I have one. It made a noticeable improvement in performance on mine. Not real significant but noticeable. I did go from a completely stock, with air silencer intact, to the Moroso however.

    Why does Ford exhaust sound the best ?

    Renumber the Chevy like a Ford. Meaning the LH bank(if you're looking at the engine) is cylinders 1,2,3,& 4 and the RH bank is 5,6,7,& 8. Not the traditional Chevy numbering of odds on the RH bank and evens on the LH bank. If you follow the cylinder pulses on a traditional Ford engine(not the...

    Why does Ford exhaust sound the best ?

    Actually, Ford and Chevy use the same firing order. They just number the cylinders differently. If you renumber the cylinders on a Chevrolet to the way Ford does it, the cylinders fire in the exact same sequence.

    1/4" wheel spacers okay for stock studs?

    Ouch! Obviously spacers aren't a good idea for stock studs. How about aftermarket race studs? The rubbing isn't really much of an issue, as it barely rubs the inside of the body, not the fender. I'm really looking more to get back track more even with the front. You can visually see the front is...

    1/4" wheel spacers okay for stock studs?

    I'm currently running 275/40R17's on AFS Cobra R's(4 lug) in the rear. And I get a little rubbing, on the inside, when turning into a parking area. I've got some room to move them outwards, but are the stock 4 lug studs long enough for use with 1/4" spacers?

    Starts then stalls?

    Can I clean the inside of the throttle body with carb clean? I thought I heard once that they have a coating that prohibits that. :shrug:

    No codes present or in history.

    Starts then stalls?

    New cap and rotor. Oil cleanliness seams to have no bearing on the problem. Does it when the oil has 10 miles on it to 3000 miles.

    Starts then stalls?

    It doesn't do it consistently enough for me to try that. And it'll only do it once. It'll start then die. Then the next turn of the key starts it and it idles fine. The car only has 60K original miles, and I doubt anyone has ever moved the idle from the stock setting.

    Starts then stalls?

    My LX is starting to do this more and more frequently. And it'll do it whether it's hot or cold. It'll start right up and then immediately stall. After that, it starts right back up and idles fine. Is this an indication that my stock 16 year old fuel pump is going out the window? The car runs...
