    Is there any way to adjust fuel pressure on 99+ (returnless) cars?

    Just curious if there is any way to adjust the fuel pressure on the returnless style cars without having to buy a chip/programmer? I know that with the fox bodies and the early SN95's with the retrun style fuel system one of the first mods was an adjsutable fuel pressure regulator. From what I...

    anyone know where to get black steel wheels for slicks

    The 15x8 American racing wheels work just fine. I have them with a set of 275 BFG drag radials and cut high 1.7's to low 1.8's on them consistantly. I got them from Summit Racing.

    Jet-Hot Brand Longtube Headers????

    Here is the info I got in an email from Jet-Hot. The prcies are pretty good. That header set you linked to is made by Jet-Hot. We sell it for $560, coated and shipped. We do make a corresponding xpipe for it for $212. We also sell the Hooker version of that system for $680, and $268. Let...

    Jet-Hot Brand Longtube Headers????

    I looked at SLP, but they want $800 for the LT's and another $270 for the X pipe. They seem very high quality, but that is pretty expensive.

    Jet-Hot Brand Longtube Headers????

    I know about needing a shorty mid pipe, but the hooker style headers use a different one then the MAC/BBK. I am not a very big fan of MAC products. I have prochamber and it is very cheaply made. The coating that they put on it is crap. The only positive thing I know about MAC is price...

    Jet-Hot Brand Longtube Headers????

    I am looking at getting some longtubes and I noticed on the Jet-Hot website that they make their own headers. From what I have gathered the are supposed to be an improved version of the Hooker longtubes. They looking very promising, but I have a few questions. What is their quality like...

    Installing gears myself this weekend.

    It really is not that hard. It is very time consuming though. If you think about it there are only 2 variables to deal with when setting up the gears: 1) depth of pinion gear 2) left/right setting of differential. #1 is easily set by measuring the thinkness of the old pinion and compare it...

    Drag Radial Advice?

    A line lock is your friend, and makes burnouts much easier and better. - I back into the water box (make sure to drive around it so you do not get water on the front tires) - Spin the tires once (just to get them uniformly wet) - Pull out of the water box and stop (do not do a burnout in...

    Easiest and cheapest way to measure FUEL PRESSURE?

    After some more searching I found this nice unit from Steeda. It comes with the adapters. I quote, "It attaches directly to the fuel rail pressure test port without having to remove the pressure release (schrader) valve, eliminating the need to search for adapter fittings." $42.95 from...

    I just got my 295/35/18's from fedex, HOLY GOD

    Same here. My 285's fit just fine on a 18x9. I would have to think that 295's should fit without any major problems.

    Easiest and cheapest way to measure FUEL PRESSURE?

    I was looking at autometer and NOS and they both sell a simple gauge that mounts on the fuel regulator line for about $35. Ok, that seems about right, but I don't have a fuel regulator since my car is returnless. Venom, you say that you can hook it up some where else. Do I need any kind of...

    Noisy throw out or pilot bearing

    It is your throw out bearing. Mine stock one did it, and so does the one that came with my SPEC clutch. It will not harm anything. It is just an annoying noise to deal with. The biggest problem is that it is not easy to fix. You have to basically remove the transmission to replace it. I...

    Easiest and cheapest way to measure FUEL PRESSURE?

    I am tinkering with some things, and I would like to measure my fuel pressure. What is the easiest and cheapest way to do this. I do not need a full time gauge. I just want something to hook up and read the pressure. I saw that an electronic gauge costs $200, and a mechanical only costs $60...
