    BFG DRs vs ET Streets...

    I ran a lot 1.6 with a stock clutch and t-5. It was when I started to run 118+ that i swapped trannies. I sold mine for $500 w/ bellhousing and flywheel to a guy doing a swap. Saved me $500 on the TREMEC.

    Fox throttle body swap (First impressions)

    I think it has to do with the shape of the adapter elbow. The elbow is not a smooth 45*. I just did because I need to run the tall VC.

    Fox Throttle body Swap People, in here

    Dont change the IAC connector. The TPS has a 5 volt referance wire, a signal wire, and a ground. Use a volt meter to find the wires you need and have fun.

    It was alot of stages. First was gring the trick flow off the top and removing the extra vacuum boss that interfered with the VC breather. The I paid to polish it. I did a lot of stuff at the same time so i am not sure what the cost would be alone. Then I masked off every thing that was to...

    Raced The Car Tonight...Results Inside!

    You need to weigh all four wheels at the same time (like a real car) and add weight at the appropriate place to get the friction divided over the wheels as evanly as possible. Add some of that special non-stick formula Clark W. Grizzwold used on his sled and its a sure winner. A slight tail...

    Got a little carried away - get in here!

    Re use the stock crank and rods. Get new pistons and a main cap girdle. Deck the block and do a line hone to the mains with the girdle in place. Have the entire rotating assembly balenced and check all clearences. Get head studs and ARP moly lube for correct torque specs. Do not over torque you...

    I am switching to a big turbo for more streetable power. I drive the car quite a bit and want to run 100LL and the novi was not cutting it with out an intercooler. The belt is ran that way because of the blower and where they put the alt. I have an intercooler in the way. A 26"x14"x4" cross flow.

    What can we polish on our cars?

    I used Dupont Automotive paint. Expensive but the quality of the paint made it easy to apply. It is not nessesary to use engine enamel. Only on the block and pan. Everything above the heads can be sprayed with car paint. Think about this. In the summer hear in Tucson you can fry and egg...

    What can we polish on our cars?

    You can polish steel but if you do not paint it it will rust. The best way to go is to chrome the steel items or paint them. When I put my car together I painted some brackets and pulleys. The paint offsets the polished pieces and accents the expensive parts you have bought. Ever seen a car...
