    Best Bang N Basics

    Gears are a stretch with simple hand tools, but would be on the top of my list.

    First vids of the Mongoose

    Rest assured, the tune should be dead on. Infact after my dyno pulls, Tim said I could advance timing 2 degrees to put even more power down, but right now I'm leaving it alone for even more safety. Ambo, you said that you disconnected the stock oil pressure gauge...is that needed for...

    First time at the track tonite

    Practice, practice! Englishtown is a fairly fast track for reasons posted by svtech76. I ran a [email protected] stock over there.

    This was the e-mail I received from my recruiter. By the way, if you google search "counter offers" you'll see that most links tell you that this is a bad move...but then again they're written mostly by recruiters. --------------------------------------------------------------- Counteroffer...

    I think the 40th anniversary model GT's have the Cobra mirrors on the from the factory as well.

    Question about boost gauge

    I tried to search on this, but had no luck... When hooking up my autometer boost/vac gauge to a red vaccum line, does it have to be the same vaccum line I'm tapping to for my bypass valve? There are many red vaccum lines under the hood, will they all serve the same purpose?

    Got my baby on the dyno today and here are my results on 2 pulls: 351.95 rwhp/346.31 rwtq 351.60 rwhp/349.10 rwtq Both runs my A/F ratio stayed between 11-12 the whole time. The car is tuned VERY safe from MPH. I didn't have to adjust anything right now...but there's plenty of room to...

    100k miles, and finally blown!

    Well it's official...after battling with the brass oil feed fittings, I am officially supercharged! :D The sound is unbelievable..I've got a permanent grin from ear to ear. Hopefully this weekend I should get her on a dyno and I'll be able to give her a nice run on the boost. Many thanks to...

    Flywheel perhaps? I'm just thinking of any rotating mass that would come from the back side of the engine area

    Installing Mongoose Today. Any tips?

    Best advice I can give you is this....brass is a very soft material and will snap if you over tighten the oil feed fittings. I ended up snapping off the fitting to the oil sending unit (from earlier post) and now I ended up snapping the oil feed nozzle to the supercharger unit itself. An easy...

    Need help with vortech install!

    Don't be scared off because I'm an idiot. I'd be back on the road finished with the install if I just paid attention and saw the hole in the line before I started to "fix" everything! Tapping the oil pan wasn't as bad as I thought. Just be patient. Use the center punch. And when you...

    I would have thought throwout bearing, but usually the noise occurs opposite to what you're saying.
