    Starter questoin

    Hmm he says 12 volts at startup, is that while cranking or is that while running? Did they do a load test on the battery, most places like that should be able to hook up the charging diagnostic machine and tell how many amps the starter is drawing. but I'm with Hissin on the batt cables, they...

    why is my car hard to start after i gun it a few times?

    Kind of sounds like it might be cranking hard. There could be many causes, overheating, bad battery cables, bad battery, or a junk starter. Timing could do it too, but almost doubtfull. Start checking at the battery and go from there.

    newbie tranny ?'s

    I give AOD's credit, if you take care of it, it will outlast a t5. Auto's can take more power than manuals, but manuals use less power.

    To affect your brakes, you have a massive vacuum leak, check the pcv, or the line going to the breaks, have you had the upper intake off lately?

    Switched to carb,, NEED HELP FAST!!

    If you understand efi and how the computer works, codes will be very helpful, even though I am a firm believer in starting with the basics. Check coil voltage and plugwires resistance. Also it sounds like a dual bowl carb, you problably have the floats set up wrong. Good luck, why did you get...

    what brand tires to buy???

    I know a few people running Kumho's and they're really good. I gotta friend with a firebird that switched between bfg drag radial, potenza re950's (expensive) and then Kumho's, and he ran his best times with the kumho's. Same size as your looking at. That will be what I get.

    hi need opinion

    Yeah I agree, everyone has right to like their own look, but it's a V8. I would laugh my ass off if I saw someone driving that. Now if you had a 2.3 ahh go ahead, but not a 5.0.

    Motor's toast

    I know this sounds crazy, but I used to work at a GM dealership, they sell AC Delco Reman motors, you can walk in and get a 5.0 HO for about $1000 with tax. They have 3 year 36.000 mile warranty. I'd almost go that route if it gets real bad, Morning sickness is common with 302's. I'd drive it...

    Fuel Injection to Carb Conversion!

    I'm with the Air gap and 650, too much carb will turn it into a dog, a 650 will make it roll.

    The Edelbrock Performer 289 will fit a 302, It is just old. They work well, got a buddy running one with ported e7's, AOD 4.10's,Edelbrock Cam, and a 780 Holley. Runs 12.9-13.2

    140 mph speedo swap question

    I have the speedometer out of a 91, with the concave bottom. Will this fit in a 88? It's not the whole cluster, just the speedometer. If it doesn't fit, how much is it worth?

    RUNNING STRAIGHT WATER WITH NO COOLANT? OVERHEAT?

    I want more on the distilled water won't boil, I'm not buying into that. Every substance on earth will boil. Solid - liquid - gas. To go from liquid to gas, it has to boil. (Sorry for the little science lesson.)

    y303 heads

    If your going to spend the money, do it right,buy some AFR heads, and since you want to supercharge your turbo, get the big AFR's. You'll see the most improvement and have the best quench. So detonation won't be such a big issue.

    were do i get valves for gt40 p heads

    Do a search for Thumper and go to his website, it has flow comparisons. If you have the money, go with his ported e7's they outflow all the gt40's and some aftermarkets.

    question on selling a complete EFI system?

    I understand that, but that is how much the parts are for sale all over. Most people that would go through the trouble to go to efi would buy an aftermarket wire harness and performance intake anyway. I'm just telling you it really isn't worth that much, if you have a A9L or A9P computer, that...
