    i have a mr gasket 180*(or milodon, all i rember is i got it from summit) balanced for high volume pumps. on the highway it stays real steady and won't go over 185 but its still possible and hard to know unless i pull it out and check the opening temp myself. it just seems to have a little...

    exhaust

    dr gas. is claiming that their X won't fit an AOD but the "convertable" kit they sell has worked on a fox before. i couldn't picture the AOD being that much larger and that is the first i've heard of it. a mid pipe for long tubes can't be that different right? maybe for shorties.

    Mark VIII fan wiring

    got the fan working, i guess there was a loose connection somewhere but everthings better now. it does get a little warm cruising around. i think its cause of the not so great spot of where i had to mount the temp sensor for the dccontrol, which was about two or three fins away from the...

    Mark VIII fan wiring

    yes the controller is wired directly to the battery. it is mounted between the battery and the driver's side fender with the leads less than eight inches long. there is no contact between the battery and the unit. i can jump the a/c lead with the ignition lead or any 12 volt source and check...

    Mark VIII fan wiring

    thanks for chiming in brian. i've been extremely happy with the controller so far. there's just something a little funny going on right now. i'm starting to think i have a mixed fan and harness. i'm sure the fan is an 18" mark 8 but i wonder if the pigtail is off something else. black(ground)...

    anyone have the GT-40 X heads

    i run the gt40x's on my 306 with an E cam and 1.6's, and gt 40 intake. good strong combo, not the best but they are still great IMO. should work good with a stock cam and be torquey and won't cut out at higher rpms like stock. u won't have to notch pistons or anything. depends on what your...
