    Need Help ASAP PRETTY PLEASE

    OK OK OK we can stop the literal FLOOD of help on this one. After talking with a buddy who runs a local dyno shop. We decided there was a pretty good chance it was a glitch and not real error. He said it sounded to him like basically it was saying it didn't know where the throttle...

    Need Help ASAP PRETTY PLEASE

    OK I had decided to disconnet the negative battery cable for 10 min to reset things and see if it happens again. But first for good measure I decided to run diagnostics with my predator again. This time we have ERROR CODES: P0579 CRUISE CONTROL multifunction input A circuit P2106...

    Need Help ASAP PRETTY PLEASE

    yesterday I hit a 90 degree corner at a pretty high rate of speed. Then engine light came on. I was 2 blocks from home so home I went. I have checked the oil. Re-tightened the gas cap. And now used my predator (first time for me) to check for error codes. It says none. When...

    new cam....new problem

    I am now told by my guy that I have a f'ed valve. I've had these heads on for about 3 years, no problem. New cam goes in and valve gets bent????? Small ding in the top of the piston??? The mechanic asked me if I was over reving it. I picked up the car, put my five year old in the front...

    new cam....new problem

    Mine is Blue, Tahitian Pearl Blue to be exact (honda civic color from last year). I didn't take my car to the show, but it was out and about over the weekend. It could very well have been mine that you saw. While not perfect, it's a pretty tight looking ride.

    new cam....new problem

    yes new lifters were added. No the cam isn't a roller. As per the non roller no wear.... I had 3 distributor gears completely whiped out when my old engine was built by a local shop with a 30 year local history (doesn't say they are good, but they deffinately have experience

    Some pics of my FINISHED Mustang!

    Flames are indeed smokin, and I pretty much hate flames on stangs. Just goes to show that something EXCEEDINGLY WELL executed can break all rules and take things a step beyond. Needs one thing.....A STICK....to beat off the little girls it's gonna attract. Obviously if they are over...

    Three Killed When Mustang Street Racer Crashes

    I've been in business for 21 years. In that time I've had many dozens of stories written for local papers and have been astounded that there has never been even one get it right. All have had at least one completely wacky misquote,fact, idea.... Just wild stuff. None of these have been...

    how much are 4:10s worth in the quarter?

    So how much time should you pick up switching to 4:10s with a stick???? I was guessing 2/10ths of a second. For those of you who have made the change, what do you think. Further with the following mods, 4:10's Cat Back CAI And a Tune at GRC What should I expect RWHP and 1/4...

    Any So Cal dealers selling under MSRP?

    I went to Galpin on Sunday, it's a 1.5 hour drive for me, but I'm pretty hot to get a new or newer car. Drove an 06, they had more than a dozen gts on the lot. Got really great service from a salesman named skip. Not pushy, very nice. Not really knowledgable about mods and the like. I...

    Fusion POWER!

    That said, it would seem to me like similar (to the duratec 3.0) technology could be used to create a more efficient 4.0 liter engine producing somewhere around 240+ HP and pretty damn good torque as well. It's a shame that Accords, Altimas, Avalons.... all have more powerful and smoother V6...

    Fan Blades...How Wide

    I know the new fan blades are 18" but are they wider and how big a tire will they accomodate. I assumed this was asked before, but did 3 different searches and came up bupkiss. Any info on this???

    one piece front windows?

    In Ca there are no safety inspections. Further there are no smog requirements for pre 73 cars. It's not as bad as it used to be. I remember when I was a kid in 72, they would just randomly stop cars going down the road and give safety inspections. Weirdest thing I had ever seen.
