    Crankshaft spin effort during build

    Just curious, how easy should the crank spin by hand when the maincaps are torqued down snug? Mine spins pretty easily without a bolt in the crank and the plastigage was within spec. when I checked all the bearings for clearance. I just am just being cautious because I don't want bad stuff to...

    Gas here is $1.96. Who can beat that?

    $2.73 for 87 is the cheapest I have seen it here in the South Bay. I miss the $ .99/gal days.

    Shout Outs/Blasts/In Between Companies

    Maximum Motorsports and Summit Racing gets 2 thumbs up. I have NEVER had a bad experience in my numerous dealings with them. 5.0 Resto gets 1.5 thumbs up just because it takes more than a few days to get my stuff. Otherwise they are right on.....a little pricey on some things though.

    SN95 5 Lug Swap Thread

    It doesn't get much easier than the MM 3-2 kit. I bought the FRRP plug and it didn't fit my stock proportioning valve. I had to take out the rubber piece on the stock PV cap and epoxy the hole closed. Worked like a charm!

    Stang=broken into wallet=teh gone!!!!!

    +1 If you draw your gun (even if you do not draw the gun on someone) be fully prepared to pull the trigger. Not an easy decision to make, so my advice to anyone is not to bring a gun if you don't think you can follow through. Think about all the reprocussions that will follow. Sorry...
