    fuel pump installation question

    I installed my walbro 255lpm pump and i was just wondering someting about the screen. In our tanks, there's a little sump where the pickup for the fuel pump sits. I was just wondering if it matters which direction the screen points. Looking at the tank, with the pump on the left the screen...

    vacuum lines for smog stuff.

    I deleted my smog equipment a long while ago. I have all of the old vacuum lines plugged except for a red one running to my intake. I was wondering if i can delete that, and get rid of that whole group of four vacuum lines altogether? It just runs into the fender, where does this go? Do i...

    is a lower intake off of a 86 truck 5.0 worth anything?

    I just ripped down a 86 truck block for a budget buildup, and i was just wondering if the intake was worth anything. All i have is the lower, but it looks alot like my systemax II lower. I was just wondering if i bead-blasted it and cleaned it up if i could sell it for any kind of real money.

    compression check results, pleas analize before S/C.

    The car was driven by a really old guy before i bought it last year. The thing was mint. I had a problem with my heads being warped after a blown headgasket though. I blanchard ground about .005" off of each one due to the warping. That may explain a somewhat higher compression. Well, just...

    SC should spin freely without oil in it correct?

    that's what i'm saying. On superchargerhelp.com there's an sn93 section, and i asked people that bought it brand new. That's the info they gave me, it does take a good amount of force by hand to spin it though, it is really tuff. I hope my crank holds up for me.

    SC should spin freely without oil in it correct?

    nope, very hard to spin. I have a sn93, and the spec is 45ftlbs. of torque to spin the pulley. Hope this helps.

    Launch

    Well, if you want it for the straight line, you want your front end to lift up. It is all about traction and weight distribution. The more weight transferring to your rear wheels, the more traction you'll have on your launch. Eibach drag springs, 90/10, or 70/30 shocks up front, 50/50's in...

    plug gap and supercharger?

    Right now, i'm in the process of installing a paxton sn93 on my car. I was just wondering if i should change the plug gap? I'm using autolite 24's. Also, with 42 # injectors and all the supporting equipment, will it run right without a chip, or do i def. need one? Thanks.
