    1 5/8 or 1 3/4 Full Tube Headers... Help decide...

    Thanks Joe. I will consider a exhaust upgrade after I get my car dynoed as recommened by Dallas Mustang. I called DM for price on 1 3/4 headers and they are claiming that my motor will not make the 500hp that I'm trying to achieve. With that in mind they said 1 3/4 exhaust is too big...

    Stock Distributor && High Reving Motor.

    TMC The stock dizzy will not only be fine for that but some think it's actually one of the best options out there over the aftermarket stuff. UHM? Are you saying that there are no aftermarket distributors that are better then the stock one past 6k? Or are you saying that the stock distrib...

    Bought Baer Brake kit

    Can you go bigger with 17inch rims? Those rotors look like the same diameter as stock rotors. Uhm. What about the rear can you use these in the rear too? How much better over stock are these?!? What makes them better? Other then the cross drilled rotors. Are the stock rotors only one...

    Stock Distributor && High Reving Motor.

    Stock Distributor && High Revving Motor. Is the stock Distributor accurate at higher RPM's past 6000? I'm thinking my motor might see something in the upwards of 7200 if it sneaks a little past my 6900 rev limiter (with an aluminum flywheel and balancer)? I don't need that thing misfiring at...

    That's the goal here 500 N/A ponies. As long as I break 400RWHP I think I will have to walk away happy but would like to see about ~430RWHP after a good tune. I currently do run the Hookers and do like them. I will try to find a pair of 1 3/4 hookers and hope they fit. Never heard...

    How many times have you been pulled over?

    I dunno what it is about my LASER RED GT with loud ass exhaust that gets me pulled over all the time. :shrug: I have been pulled over >20 times. The worst one was a drag racing incident that I ended up driving the dude I was racing with me to the police station (per the cops request). I...

    Ouch, 7500RPM who spins their 2bolt main block that high? :shrug: How long will that last? It's not a b50 sportsman block which I wish it was but it's too damn expensive. As far as 1 3/4 full tubes any recommendations on brand? I need them to clear a lakewood saftey bellhousing and a...

    1 5/8 or 1 3/4 Full Tube Headers... Help decide...

    Lets see I'm confused as to what to do with my current exhaust system. My new motor is about to be dropped in and I'm wondering if the 1 5/8 Hooker Full Tubes headers are big enough. I'm putting in a 331 stroker with 10.5 compression and a n-91 cam which is something of the like .600 lift (w/...

    Thinking about switching intakes.

    I'm thinking of selling my Ported Performer that has seen very little milage on it. What would a fair price for one of these be? I spend $450 in porting. Flows 275cfm.

    Buying a 5.0 off Ebay...Help Please

    I'm with everyone else on this one. Too little power, too god damn much $$$. If I had dumped that much money which that total is sneaking up on my little project. I would be keeping my car for god knows how long. Got to question why he is selling it after such an investment! Not to mention...

    Which Center Caps to use? (Pics)

    With the 1 inch spacer is the tire sticking out past the fender? That's one thing I would hate. It would seem like it would do that since I swear if the tire was couple more mm wider it would be sticking out.

    Which Center Caps to use? (Pics)

    I got the BFgoodrich Drag's those are super sticky I'm hoping I will start hooking a lot more then my NT555R 275x35R18's which just spun and spun. There is not a lot of tread on drag radial to begin with so I will assume that they will wear pretty fast myself, they are really soft.

    Which Center Caps to use? (Pics)

    I got the exact same tires and rims. I just mounted them on my car. They just barely squeeze under without sticking outside the fenders (BARELY). They look so bad ass from behind it's scarry. However, the exhaust rubs up againts the tire no space there at all and it's resting againts the...

    Thoughts on a possible combo

    Look into Anderson Cam's they make some really good grinds themselves. I used a b2 with my Stage II, TFS heads and made 324RWHP on a stock bottom end. The b2 cam is a nitrous cam but I was running it N/A if you get the N21 which is a NA cam that might net better results. That cam was lumpy as...

    Not your Basic Intake Spacer Question

    How much more RPM's will I get out of porting the lower holley Intake? I was defintely thinking of porting the lower holley to match the heads and leaving the upper untouched. What's a better intake RPMII or Holley? Anyone seen those compared on a dyno someplace? It seems the RPMII runs...

    Not your Basic Intake Spacer Question

    Thanks Viper I wasn't sure which way that goes. Joe. I was referring to fly wheel HP. I was told that even though the edelbrock lowers all look the same they are not. Otherwise I will try to find an RPM II Upper (anyone sell just uppers) which I was advised againts doing that because the...

    Not your Basic Intake Spacer Question

    Ok. What is the main purpose of these spacers that go between the upper and lower plenum? If I recall some say it will cool the upper better therefore your engine will gain in performance from cooler air. I also know sometimes you may want to run them if your valve covers are to tall. Now the...
