    Building 306 , need your opinion/suggestions

    here is a thumbnail for doing a bottom end. 0 Balance is always preferred. Most kits I see are 28oz imbalanced. If you keep stock throw crank you can probably stay with a 50oz FW and balancer saving some cash (check the balancer for slipage) Good head bolts or studs. ARP Good quality...

    My 331 Stroker build...your input please

    LS1 will get good gas mileage with better engine management and most important a 6spd with double overdrive. .50 in 6th which with a 3.42 rear and stock height tires will put your rpm's around 1600 and 65-70 mph. In my experience, about 20 years worth, keep the rpm below 2k on a V8 and the...

    Cam Question?!?

    Pull 1 plug wire off for small duration. 2 for a real lope. Seriously. A big cam in a stock motor is useless (even a small cam really), less than useless its detrimental...you have no gears and no stall and no flow on the heads and not even an intake.:bang:

    Gauges & Gauge Pod

    I run boost and fuel pressure. Fuel pressure is more important than boost and a wide band is more important than fuel. the AF guage that hooks into the O2 sensors is not really sufficent.

    New K-Member

    Here is my review of my install on the PARacing K-member Great fit. As you can see it kept the geometry just like stock. No moving the wheels forward. Almost fell into position. Did some squaring on the member tightend it down and checked again. I used the rear lower control arm mounts as my...

    03/04 Cobra Drivetrain Swap in to a '94 GT

    Actually raced one at the track a year or so ago. It was a 96 Cobra. I believe. Pretty nice, but very tight and was massively expensive to do. Ran a Cobra R hood to clear the blower. Required conversion of the fuel system..so on and so on. - Matt

    Fit so far has been perfect. Will wait for to give final judgement until I get it all back together and aligned. I am cleaning up the rack and so on. Was light enough to put up with one hand and put the bolts in with the other. This thing adds some serious clearance Will post some...

    I can't escape the madness.....New Combo

    The motor seemed to be holding fine. I will be disassembling the shortblock soon. I want to see condition of the skirts and ring lands before I say more. Car is mostly street oriented but has the driveline for the track also.

    Fat Rear Tires.

    Nope....the only option you have is to have the stock rims widened, And then if they can only change the offset to the inside you would have to use spacers. If it was cheap and easy I would have a set myself. I too like the stock Cobra wheels. AFS makes the following in 10.5. Those are...
