    Jetting and timing?

    Still, the vic and performer are not a good match. The intake runners are going to hit a wall when entering the head. A better match which also clears under a stock hood is the Torker II intake.

    Increase CR with head gasket?

    To be honest, I think you are puting way too much stock in squeezing out more power from CR. You run into too many issues, and too much money just to get a few extra horses if that. Dont waste your time milling anything for several reasons. Milling brand new heads on a street motor means you...

    Jetting and timing?

    Why not just do it the right way and get a dizzy for it, either use a carbed unit from an 85, or get an MSD. That way you can run good initial with an advance curve. This will help performance, economy and longevity. Also, may I ask why you are running a Vic Jr on an almost stock 302? Thats...

    fuel pressure regulator install now missing

    Are you sure the adjustment is right? When does it do it, at idle or accelerating? Why did you change it to begin with? And I wouldnt recommend reusing intake gaskets because any small deformity can cause a vacuum leak which could cause your problem.

    This car NEEDS MSpaint

    Ferrari5.0 baby. I actually thought it would be cool to play off of the ferrari theme when building a canyon carving mustang. Especially since they both use the Stallion as their symbol.

    This car NEEDS MSpaint

    Its a hack job because its an ugly mexican turdstang. Only mexicans use those nasty rims; the same ones they use on all those conversion vans and chevy trucks with 68 lbs of fiberglass body work. Ditch the stripes, two tone the car like it came from the factory and put some real rims on it, at...

    I need a huge favor please!!

    No, I can take it and there is nothing she can do about it. That will leave me with the truck, the Jeep, the Mustang and my Vespa and her with her collection of shoes. What is she going to do, take me to court and let the whole world know she started escorting?? Please!

    93 Cobra R on ebay .... w/ only 65 miles!!

    I understand cars are meant to be driven, but the 93R is a turd. Its a 93 Cobra with fluid coolers and ugly rims. And the 93 wasnt that fast anyways. Its best just sitting, collecting dust and value. Like stated before; just get a 5.0 slap a blower on it and beat it up. Besides, there is no...

    What do you think of this motor?

    Total garbage, what is a hipro motor?? LOL. So its a rebuilt Exploder motor that now cant be rebuilt, and its got a hideous pain job. Clearing the valve covers will require an intake spacer which may then hit the hood. He's got over glorified E7 heads at best with a local machine shop...

    just finished changing the heater core

    Was it an A/C car? Without, it calls for 1.5 hours, with it calls for 5.5! I just changed mine today in my 85. I just pulled the whole dash back. Alldata gives you a laundry list of things to do, but I cut corners by unbolting the whole dash. Still a pain in the ass though for sure.

    RIP '90 Red Notch *PICS* after accident results

    You can buy back that car from the insurance company for next to nothing and save whatever you can like the rims, drivetrain, exhaust and whatever then transfer it all into a 4 cyl. notch.

    I need a huge favor please!!

    Stolen was an option and I actually called the Chicago PD, but they asked who took it. Once I said wife, they said no can do. Its a joint property state so its half hers so she didnt steal it. And if I lie to the police and they help me recover it and it turns out she had it, I'm in big...

    I need a huge favor please!!

    Guys, I've been on here for a long time now, and I need some help. My wife has my Jeep Cherokee and she wont give it back. I've been trying to make her my ex but she isnt helping at all. I have a key to the Jeep, but she lives in Chicago, 3 hours away and she wont tell me where she lives. I...

    white haze on spark plugs and exhaust valves?

    coolant can create a white like powder or crystalization in the combustion chamber. Did you notice anything on the head gasket or anything that may indicate a leak?

    Going to the dyno tomorrow

    Thanks for the advice. People seem to equate stock small block numbers to built big blocks. I probably will stick with this cam because of the price. I was a little dissapointed with these numbers, but I know the headers will make a huge difference. The heads are factory D0VE's except some...

    Going to the dyno tomorrow

    Well, for starters you all own small blocks and you dont have the experience to question my judgement. And secondly, I consistenly prove you wrong every time so I really dont have anything to prove to any of you. So until you start swapping from old logs to new headers on a built big...

    Going to the dyno tomorrow

    No, its 60. Youre thinking of a standard small block motor going from crappy factory headers to aftermarket headers. Youre not thinking of a built, cammed, ported head 466 breathing through 30 year old exhaust manifolds. So I, people I talk to, and the dyno shop believe 60 is reasonable.
