    which differental do i want?

    I have a Detroit Locker in mine and do not hear noise from it. Maybe my Dynomax Race Bullets cover the noise. The DL does remind you it is there whem you apply or let off the gas with a slight thud. The most important thing to remember with them, is do not press the gas to WOT unless the car is...

    Dumped exhaust

    I had dumps on my exhaust before, and just picked up 2 turn down extentions from Advanced, and mounted them on a 45 degree angle so they did not blow up so much dirt on the road, and direct the exhaust towards the sides to reduce chances of it getting into the car.

    Odd Supercharger Question on Carbed Engine

    I am looking for ideas for mounting a Procharger or Vortech in my Bird. It does not have enough room for adding another pulley to drive it, so want to figure something that will run off the factory serpentine belt. Here is the mounting problems. I could add a pulley if I mount the...

    Is switching from mechanical to electric fan a good idea?

    There is a reduction of power robing drag, so it will free up some power. Just as important, is improved cooling. Under normal weather, if you have a decent sized radiator and not using the A/C, you do not need a fan at highway speeds. The biggest cooling problem is in slow moving traffic. This...

    Fibreglass Hood Problems!!!!

    Considering the cost of the hood, the labor of getting it to fitted properly, then getting it painted, I would never run a fiberglass hood with out real pins, and the hood latch working properly. I have seen too many come up. I like the look of them also, if installed properly.

    Since I am using 3500 stall speed with a non lockup AOD, I needed 2 24,000 gvw B&M coolers. It is not driven in the Winter, and is not run through the radiator.

    oil type ?

    After doing a LOT of research on this, I have decided to switch from using special high dollar synthetic oil, to Chevron Delo 400. It was initally made for heavy Diesel use, but after finding its advantages, they make it for all internal combustion engines now. VERY Good stuff, and cheap. :)...

    Where there is the will, there is a way. I have always loved side exit exhaust, but with my Bird being lowered, I had to work out a way to do it with out ground clearance problems. Here is how it ended up.

    Side Exhaust

    They are a tad loud, but it is only a week end play car, so not bad. Those are Dynomax Race Bullets which use ceramic instead of fiberglass, and do not sound like glass packs, or pop like them. Not too loud, but I would not want them on a daily driver.

    Supercharger for Carbed 351 Based Engine

    I have no idea. I am researching what will do it with out maxing it out, and what bracket and pulley would work with me keeping my serpentine belt system. I think as suggested, I would be best with purchasing just a head unit, the proper bracket that will position it out far enough to line up...

    275s and 10.5 inch rims out back in 85?

    THOSE 315s look perfect on the 9 inch wheels. I have a set of 15 inch wheels being made to mount 275/50/15 MT on, so I will be removing my worn out BFG 275/40/17 DR, and trying a set of those 315s for street use. Look perfect.
