    Front Brake Rattle on '92 5.0 LX

    did you remember to put the sleeves in the little rubber inserts in the caliper where the pin goes into. the kit i think your reffering to is the steel insert kit. where it uses a steel sleeve instead of a plastic one.

    393 vs. 408

    thanks for the reply guys. i'm just wondering if i should notice a difference in longevity. i may be putting boost to it eventually. so in these two setups will it really make a difference will the rod angle? and one more quick question. since the block is already machined, all i need to do...

    393 vs. 408

    i know dude. i just wanted to know about the greater rod angle on the 408, if that should affect my decision or not.

    393 vs. 408

    okay guys here's the thing i am dealing with. i recently bought a 351 with a complete bottom end(probe pistons,eagle I beam rods, and a stock ground crankshaft) the only problem is, they said the crank needed polishing because of "flashing" and i thought okay not bad at all. well i got to...

    Something i found interesting about 'reccomended oils"

    no we have more rules i believe on emissions and efficiency. and i mean hell if they still have a 5.0 or 351 is a brand new car i don't think they worry about it as much because it most likely being a performance car. but also they make an excuse on bearing clearances and blah blah blah, it's...

    POLL: Draw-thru or Blow-thru?

    that's what a bypass is for, it just routes the boost back. if you not running that then it will just try to backspin the turbo making a "toof..toof..toof" noise. but you probably already know that.

    POLL: Draw-thru or Blow-thru?

    first question are you running a blowoff valve? if not there is no reason what so ever to run a blow thru MAF. they actually run better with a drawthrough MAF most of the time just because it doesn't have the swirl and agitated air going through it.

    Those with solid mounts?

    i love my energy engine and tranny mounts, the car is alot more responsive and snappy feeling, but my old mounts were all torn the difference is alot bigger. i'd recommend the poly mounts. the solid ones, if your pushing over 400hp, will actually hurt the engine a little bit because it can't...

    front brakes

    don't forget your brake hose, they collapse internally and prevent fluid from going through. so do those too while your at it,definately worth the money. and if your gonna do that just get the steel braided lines, they help pedal feel under heavy braking.

    Car wouldn't start today

    have sombody turn the key and sombody else hit the starter with a hammer or a steel rod from up top. also could be your starter relay, but most likely it is the starter.

    best way to see low 13's

    well the turbo kit will probably give you way more then any H/C/I or nitrous. just gotta know what your doin with that. but usually the easiest JY turbo kit is a twin turbo setup. easy to weld and easy to get turbos, usually t3's out of a turbo coupe,SVO, X4TI...... but the intake side is bit...

    What do you guys think of these Wideband O2's + Monitor???

    umm you do realize that they won't replace your stock sensors right? it's just one wide band that you need to drill a big hole in you exhaust, weld a bung, and it just gives you a digital reading on the gauge. but as widebands go PLX series is a really good brand, i will be a purchasing a PLX300...
