    fast blinker and loss of power

    Bad alternator? I've found they can do some crazy things with the electrical aspects in a car if not working properly. Quick check.

    4.30's too much gear???

    Exacty Keith, he won't know until he tries and this is a good opportunity for him to do so. It IS about preference, and don't get me wrong, I can't stand driving a car with poor driveability on the street, but I like to compromise and get the most out of both aspects, street driving and 1320...

    Aluminum Flywheel

    I'll let you know how it works out.

    4.30's too much gear???

    I know what you mean Keith, but if he's staying n/a then why not? I drove my friends car which had 4.30s and really liked it. Didn't notice a whole lot of difference in normal driving over my 4.10s. Really NOT trying to be an azzhole here, but have you driven a car geared with 4.30s? Edit*...

    4.30's too much gear???

    Why is that? As far as the gears being free, take them, a couple hundred of rpms on the highway is not a big deal. If you're staying n/a for a while, get them.

    4.30's too much gear???

    I guess I'm that 2nd person that will agree with 4.30s. Hell, I'm going 4.56s. Don't fear the gear. I ran 4.10s in my SN and loved them, and wouldn't of hesitated going with 4.30s. It does depend on your combo and plans so take that into consideration.

    Aluminum Flywheel

    A 347ci, HANDS DOWN. Unless it's a 418, but not a 351 just because it's heavier. Regarding the 4.56 gear, most people don't run them because of their goals, some may stay n/a, others go power adders or others just want to cruise. Soon I will have the 4.56s in my fox AND that aluminum flywheel...

    Aluminum Flywheel

    Why wouldn't it? Doesn't spinning faster with less or the same amount of force allow for faster acceleration leading to faster times. There is such a thing of upgrading stuff and not gaining ANY hp/tq and still be faster, it's called acceleration. :nice:

    Aluminum Flywheel

    I understand your point Nate, but aside from resetting my idle and getting a little used to the new clutch and flywheel set-up nothing hard about it. It's different, sure, because of the rotating mass, but revs quicker and runs, IMO, smoother.

    Aluminum Flywheel

    :stupid: Don't know where all this 'is harder to take off' talk is coming from. I love it. Think about it like this, aluminum d/s, aluminum flywheel, aluminum underdrive pulleys, aluminum wheels, that is a WHOLE lot of rotating mass weight savings.:nice:

    Aluminum Flywheel

    I am, no cons as of yet and don't see why there would be. It revs and runs smoother, and I'm positive it'll help in the 1320.

    15x10s on a Fox body what size backspacing?

    Thanks bently, I guess I should update my sig, I currently own a 92 coupe and my SN is back home. FWIW, the 10" works fine on my SN with a 5.5 BS.

    15x10s on a Fox body what size backspacing?

    Great pics bentley. So when you say NO problems, you didn't have to roll the fenders or bend the well?

    15x10s on a Fox body what size backspacing?

    Hey 86turbo, I would like to see pics if you have them available. I'm in the same boat and would hate to get some 8" when some 10" will work.

    You can talk all the smack you want because Paul already sold it and now drives a geo metro.:shrug:

    ATTN Carlisle participants

    Ha, damn, has it been a year already?! I remember a thread like this not too long ago. I thought maybe there was a show before that one. It must get really packed for you guys to be preparing for it already.

    Painting hood with Scoop

    Mine is cut open, but it looks dark here because of the distance. Here's Mike's car, he had a black beehive grill cut out and fit in there. You can barely see it in this picture, but I had some close-ups of it and it looked good.
