    nope, Missouri. its been high 80's-low 90's for the past 3-4 weeks or more. we went right from winter to summer, only had like 1 weekend that was actually "spring-like."

    It looks small cause it is. N/a setups use a 3-3.5-4" intake pipe, and a common 70mm tb translates to 2.75".

    Craigslist Interaction...am I Right Or Wrong On This?

    That assumes a real live person sent the question in the first place (most people aren't real or live these days, so probably not)

    T56 or tko600? And is the install as simple as it seems? (Foxbody)

    there is the astro and g-force kits for the t5, i have no experience with them, in theory they should be about as strong as a tko (gear wise), but at those levels the case starts being suspect. also in theory they will shift as smooth as a stock t5, since they keep the single-rail shift mech...

    T56 or tko600? And is the install as simple as it seems? (Foxbody)

    tko is simple, just needs a different clutch disc (26 spline), bell, and output, but otherwise just slides right in. factory crossmember can be used, just have to cut the tacks on the tubes and slide it all the way back. plenty strong for most "normal" setups (a wild turbo big inch is probably...

    Pay no attention to an advertised power range on a stroker, the cfm requirements go way up. A 408 will be a 4.030 bore (cylinder refresh) with a 4.0 stroke. 393 will be the same bore with a 3.75 stroke. Obviously you'll have to open it up to know you have there.

    it'd be easier and cheaper to start with the already efi version. those n2o nozzles would probably have to move, those holes welded up, and new injectors bungs drilled and welded in. probably several hundred in labor/machine work. you could probably sell that one and buy an efi one with no loss.

    super vic plumbed for juice. carb version of what mine is. anything smaller on a 408 with decent heads would be a waste.

    so this is from my build thread but should give you an idea. Dart 351, super victor efi intake, holly cast throttle body and a cheap summit brand drop base 14x3. Using energy suspension mounts (vert mounts), racecraft k (there are others that sit the motor lower, team z I believe does), 1" k...
