    Suspension Swap 1990 to 1999 & Later

    the front spindle/brake swap is a very common thing as you get better braking and a 5 lug bolt pattern which opens you up to quite a few choices for wheels. for the rear i know they make a set of backing plates which allows you to run the rear rotor disc set-up but i am not sure if those...

    Wheel fitment help needed.

    not trying to hijack this thread, but seeing it made me wonder if the 94-95 tri-bar 17" wheels would fit with the mark vii rotors since it has a deeper center cap area, or you would need the spacer for them as well ? i know the 16" ponies fit without using the 94+ spindles but have always...

    edelbrock heads Q..

    the bore is whatever is stock plus .030 . the bottom end is actually pretty well built, fully balanced and machined with forged components, so i dont think the rpm would be the issue, i was just looking for a decent aluminum head that would let me see about 425 rwhp when i finally get a...
