    Fuel line connectors and JB Weld?

    Hahaha, Lava soap :) I actually went a different route and got some of this "metal putty" I for get the name but it comes in this tube and you just cut off how much you need. There is an inner part and an outter part and when you squish them together till they are uniform it begins to...

    Fuel line connectors and JB Weld?

    I had a questions about the conenctors on the fuel tank lines. I see that they are different, the return lines have a little plastic clip that slides into the end and locks in. The line going to the fuel filter has a different fitting.....i pretty much mangled it getting it off. Can i just...

    Who here daily drives with 4.56's

    For a daily driver i wouldn't go with anthing higher than 4.10's. Especially if you like to get some speed going, the car will just run out of gear. I run trough the traps at 4th gear, but she's screaming. Shifting to 5th just isn't worth it, you'll be doing too much shifting, in my opinion...

    GT40P heads and BBK LTs

    Hey let me know if that setup works for you. I have BBK LT's in my 88 now and am looking to throw on a set of GT40p's. I head that some years of the P's are different, some the plugs come out at differnet angles. I don't want to pick up a set of heads that i can't use with my exhaust.

    Xbox 360 or Laptop?

    I'd say get a used labtop and wait till ps3 comes out cause 360 will probably drop in price. Also be prepared to kiss your free time away, since your going to be addicted to games. If your going for the ps3 i'd wait a couple months till they work the bugs out. I got one of the original ps2's...

    Speedo gear chewed

    Thanks :nice: I see the speedo gears on ebay all the time. My speedo is jumpy when your doing around 10-15 mph, then goes up smooth, it's about 20mph off I assume. Is there a way to know if the speedo cable needs to be replaced too?

    I need to change my speedo gear out after my 4.10 gear swap. Is there a write up out there how to do this? I don't have to open up the tranny do I?

    Why do Grannatelli Control Arms Suck?

    I've been running mine for a year and love them, no problems at all. I've had about 4 trips to the track so far this season...but then i'm not putting down major HP and torque like some of you guys. For my setup they work great.

    Walked an 06GT... Man I feel good!!

    Nice. I walked a vert 06 GT 3 weeks ago at Maple Groove. It was a girl driving an automatic convertible GT. She had a helmet on but it looked completely stock. After I launched (which i suck at) i never saw her again. My buddies watching said she was a few car length behind and my lead kept...

    Where are the speakers???

    Yeah the "lets carpet over the speakers" was a dumb design. There really isn't even a good place to mount the speaker. I'm just going to go with a rear seat delete and throw in a sub.

    94+ Gauge Cluster in 5.0? Anyone try this?

    Yeah i wouldn't want to switch the whole dash. I prefer the look of the 87-93's allot better. Just wondering if there was some easily magical solution :D

    94+ Gauge Cluster in 5.0? Anyone try this?

    I was just looking over my options to upgrade my gauge cluster. Did anyone ever put in a newer gauge cluster from a 94+ into their 87-93? I think that would look pretty cool, but the wiring and fitment might be a nightmare. If you have any pics they would be appreciated. Thanks, Dave
