    How to recalibrate speedo-After White face gauge install?????

    I'd say call the police station and ask if there are any of those radar displaying signs in your area. You could also have someone pace you while on cruise control and talk to them on the cell phone. It's not the most accurate, but you can adjust it as you go.

    Which Motor Would Be Best For A Daily Driver?

    I too am looking to upgrade to a shortblock in the near future. I run a kb2.2 w/ 3.73s and see minimal highway use, but is daily driven (30 miles a day). I live very close to D.S.S. and was looking at the pro bullet 306, as the price tag barely tips the $2000 mark. So I am in the same...

    How can I stop my......

    Just disconnect the factory speedo, and connect an aftermarket one. Reconnect the stock when it's test time, and take out the aftermarket speedo. :D

    Rear end shaking

    I've had some tranny problems for awhile, it's hard to engage the shifter in some gears, and it grinds if you shift moderate-hard. mostly in 5th. Well I've learnt to drive it with these problems, but last night when I take it out of gear in 5th when up to speed (60-80ish) the car shakes...

    Gauge cage or tach pod, any problems?

    I'm putting a blower on and i'm adding a boost gauge and a EGT gauge. I am debating as which to get. I already have a full pillar as well. i like the gauge cage because: 1. no mods to dash (just cut fins, and can get new at junk yard) 2. Looks cooler of the two 3. Want to paint consol and...

    I have $2000 looking for 300hp and low 13's-high 12's

    do you want this performance just at the strip, and not constant for DD? If that is the case i would say a 75 shot of nitrous, a good set a slicks, a new driveshaft (to handle slicks), and suspension (control arms, trac bars, ect.). If you go this route you would probably need a new shifter...

    1/4 mile///christmas tree question

    Just like Mike said, the first couple times, you will have some butterflies. My jitters ended as soon as I mashed the gas on my first time down the straight, it turned into pure adrenaline. Leave your car in the pits, and walk up to the stands, just watch a couple cars go. It's intimidating...

    Fox antenna delete question............

    I just cut mine shorter. Took me like 10 min. It is ALOT cheaper then filling it in, and looks much better. Mine is probably around 16 inches and is level with the roof.

    The To Do's before buying a Supercharger

    A good free flowing intake/exhaust is the most important step. I bought a KB (roots) blower so i saved some money by not having to buy an intake manifold. Heads make a big difference on a N/A car, and a HUGE difference on a blown car. If you are using a centrifugal blower, i'd go with some...

    you have to love pick-n-pull

    I don't know if this qualifies, but two college friends of mine went to the local pickNpull and took a 86gt they had with 230,000 for a spin to test drive it. This junkyard is split into two buisnesses, one the salvage yard, the other the truck towing buisness, all owned by hte same guy. In...

    This is the basics with the two of them.... I don't know what kind of activity your car will see, but i know the holley system max kit is a great track kit, but kills low end on street. (hopefully you have steep gears!) I go hear their #8 cylinder has flow problems, but thats pretty common w/...

    Are h-pipe hangers necessary?

    I bought an used bbk h-pipe off a good friend, but the hangers are broken off. I hear of people with custom exhaust not using them, so can I forget about it, or do i have to rig it up some wire clamps and some coat hanger :D

    American Racing Rims peeling each winter

    I had a set of the cheapest AR rims (aluminum) on my 93 stealth, after some time i noticed they had some layer of a "plastic" coating or something, once this chipped away from carwashing, rocks, salt, curbs :nonono: .......ect. the bare aluminum was then exposed, and i guess it oxidized or...

    Choices for intake tubing?

    I am looking for a plastic fenderwell mount air intake, I do not want the metal intake pipe getting hot in the engine bay, as my car is supercharged, and hot air leads to detonation. :notnice: :notnice: Looks are of no importance to me. Can anyone help me out as well?
