    Dumb springs question

    You won't believe this. My shock broke today while driving. The large bolt located in the engine compartment broke off. From what I could tell, the bolt broke in two. Apparently I didn't bolt it down tight enough, or I over torgued it. It's going to the shop tomorrow. I guess I'll be getting new...

    Dumb springs question

    Alright, I'm done! The last spring went on in an hour... it couldn't have gone any smoother. It's too dark to take any photos, so I'll be sure to post some tomorrow.

    Dumb springs question

    I got the driver-side front on this morning. It was a MAJOR pain. I won't have time to get the last spring on until after dinner tonight. I took a picture of the stock front spring next to the front c-spring. BIG difference!

    Dumb springs question

    I just got my rear springs on... that was a pain. The first one took forever, but the second one went on in around an hour. I'll tackle the front one's in the morning.

    Which cam for this combo?

    Wow! The first three replies are for the same cam. How much does this cam cost?

    Which cam for this combo?

    Help me decide on a cam. I just put a deposit on a 306 long block. Which cam will work best with Performer RPM heads? No emissions testing in FL, so I'm not concerned with it being 'street legal'. So far the E-cam and the Trick Flow Stage 1 has been recommended. Which cam would you guys use? I'm...

    440hp 331 Stroker for $7800??? Need advice!!!

    I've ruled out Panhandle Performance. I was wrong thinking installation was included in the price. Besides the $7800 for the motor, they want $1200 for R&R plus the cost of the tune and chip. I have my eye on a new forged 306 with Performer RPM heads. I'll also slap an S-trim on it!

    I thought I had 3.73's... maybe I don't?

    UPDATE: They're definitely 3.73's. I jacked up the rear and spun the tires. The driveshaft spun exactly 3 3/4 turns. Thanks everyone for the help and advice!

    Yes, i'm running 245/60/15's. I entered this into the gear ratio calculator.

    I thought I had 3.73's... maybe I don't?

    I'm gonna borrow a floor jack from a friend after work today. I guess I'll jack it up from the rear differential. Do I need to put anything in front of the front tires... will the car try to roll forward when I jack the rear up?

    My floor jack is broken... that's why I used the calculator first. I guess it's time to buy a new one.

    I thought I had 3.73's... maybe I don't?

    I went out yesterday to confirm my gear ratio using my new C2 tach and one of those signs along the road that tells you how fast you're driving. I don't have a speedo right now, it's at Brother's Performance being calibrated for my new 140mph face. Anyway, I was told my car has 3.73's, but after...

    There's no cons... they're well worth the money. I don't have any clearance issues with my Flows.

    old paxton supercharger

    Sounds like a Novi 1000, or is it too old to be a Novi?

    Thanks! Anybody else have feedback?

    Help me decide on cam, TB, intake, injectors

    Thanks for the reply! The motor comes with a stock cam, but I'll swap it if there's something that will make more power with the blower. Any suggestions?

    Rebalance old driveshaft or get an aluminum

    Another vote for new aluminum. My stock driveshaft had a horrible vibration until I replaced it with a FMS aluminum driveshaft.

    Help me decide on cam, TB, intake, injectors

    I'm looking at a new 306 w/ Performer RPM heads. I'm also going to get either a Novi 1000, or 2000. I'm needing help picking out some parts. Throttle body... 65mm, or 70mm? Which cam would work best with these heads? What size injectors... 24lb, or 30lb? Would I be better off matching these...
