    droppped something down a port

    This reminds me of the time when my friends dad was building a 383 stroker for his Chevelle and thought lost a washer down in the head. He wasn't 100% sure that's were it went so he said F it and put the motor together anyway. Lets just say he got to build the motor a second time, two hours...

    Stock times for a 96-98 4.6 sohc

    I don't know for sure but low 15's to VERY high 14's seems right for stock. My buddy just took his stock 95 GT Vert to the track and ran a 15.62. I know stock for stock my car beat his by a few cars and mine is a 98, so 14.9 to 15.1 is about right.

    chips and gears

    Thanks again :nice: . The guy at JEGS must have "accidentally"( :bs: ) left the part about returning the vehicle to stock condition before it could be used on another vehicle, or he just didn't know what the hell he was talking about. I haven't bought one yet and I would have felt pretty bad...

    chips and gears

    I am glad you set me strait on this :flag: . I was told that it could be reused but it had to be on the same year as the previous vehicle. Sorry for the misinformation everyone :( .

    chips and gears

    With the HPP all you do is plug it in, do what you want with it and your done unless you want to keep it for future use, ie. new gears, rims, or changing back to stock. If you are not going to use it again after the intial use, why not try to get some of your money back?? Can't really do that...

    chips and gears

    Well, since you have an automatic I would suggest the Hypertec Power Programmer. It will let you correct you speedometer and firm up you shift by increasing line pressure, among other things. There are other programmers out there, I just don't remember the names. It cost like 300 bucks. Go...

    96-98 GT's

    Get the 99+. I have a 98 and if I could do it all over again that's what I would have done. 96-97 215 hp 98 225 hp 99+ 260 hp 96-98 will run high 14's (awesome driver) low to mid 15's (avearge driver) assuming all stock 99+ will run high 13's (awesome driver) low 14's (average...

    Will 18's and a 2" drop cause problems?

    I was going to wait for the deep dish to come out, but I can't wait anymore. Maybe when they come out I will put the 18x9s on ebay and get the 17x9 and 17x10.5. I will definitely post pics when it's all done. :flag:

    Flowmaster? NEWBIE

    I bought my flowmaster cat-back for 300 and had it installed for like 60 bucks at a muffler shop. I would suggest Magnaflows though. I will be switching to them next spring. The only reason I went with the flows is because it was a quick, cheap, and easy fix for my stock exhaust, which was...

    Will 18's and a 2" drop cause problems?

    I ordered the Black FR500 18x9s and I am going to lower my car. I was originaly just going to lower it 1.5" but I can get some Eibachs that lower it 2" brand new for $100 off a friend of mine. I was just wondering if I would run into any problems lowering it that much with the 18's on it. :shrug:

    3.73's or 4.10's in 96GT

    Go with 4.10's. I have them in my 98 and wouldn't trade them for anything. It's probably the best mod I have done so far. I have the FRPP 4.10s.

    Suspension set ups

    Thanks for the responses and pics. Your cars look awesome :nice: . I will check into all of your suggestions and see what will fit my needs the best. My car will be an occasional drag car and possibly a few auto-x races, so I think I need to get a pretty adaptable suspension. Thanks again...
