    steel VS aluminum under drive pulleys

    They look nicer... I have steel myself though because they are sturdier. Mine are starting to get surface rust but thing that a rattle can can't fix. Kevin

    tko 600 or t56 swap and whats involved?

    I was in the same boat too and torn between a TKO 5/600 and a T56. I went with the TKO600 because I really didn't like the short first and second of the tko500 which is similar to the T5 in gearing. I also went with the 600 over the t56 because I really couldn't justify the cost for the .8 5th...

    headers worth it?

    Not worth the money for a stock motor IMO. Exhaust in general on a stock motor typically yeilds little gain... unless your cats are clogged or something. Either way long tubes are the way to go if you don't have to deal with emissions and speed bumps. Kevin

    Coil-Over Confusion

    Pic 2 also. The bumpstop is if you don't have coilovers so you use that in conjunction with the original plastic/rubber shield that goes over the shock. I believe I used the original rubber bumpstop that came with my shocks.. Kevin

    Kenne Bell w/ non-gt40/stock lower

    Honestly, there are better superchargers out there for the 5.0... The KB really shines on the modulars but not so much on the 5.0. If you are getting a killer deal on it, ya go for it though... Kevin

    Can a WC T5 handle a 331 stroker?

    I would say if you are going to drive the 331 like its intended... no. Ask me how I know and I only have a 302 with H/I/C... The t5z is rated for 330ft lbs. If you drive it like a granny then it should be fine but launches and hard shifts spell dealth for any t5. If you get a gforce one you...

    TR3550

    That is kinda odd to me... I was able to use my stock drive shaft with my TKO 600... C6 yoke was needed is all... Kevin

    WTS TFS stage 1 cam w/10 miles on it 140 shipped.

    Hello. Just watching this thing sit in the garage. TFS stage 1 with 10 miles on it tops. Broke it in, drove it to the smog station and was turned away for a smog test. Too lopey for their taste out her in CA. The cam is missing the timing gear dowel but other than that it is near new. PM me if...

    Front suspension / 5 lug / 13" brake thread (long)

    Is your fox going to be lowered? The SN95 shocks are going to be longer than the fox shocks. A lot of SN95 people use fox length shocks on their lowered cars to keep the shock in its optimal range of motion. I personally would stick with fox length shocks. Kevin

    Front suspension / 5 lug / 13" brake thread (long)

    Is your car going to be lowered? The sn95 shocks are longer but a lot of sn95 people use fox shocks on their lowered cars. The reasoning behind that is because the shock will be in its full optimal range of travel. I wouldn't recommend putting sn95 shocks on a lowered fox. Kevin

    Front suspension / 5 lug / 13" brake thread (long)

    Maybe I am wrong but you probably don't need super serious brakes on the car... Honestly some dual pistons from any 99+ should be a great improvement as it is. Cobra's are bigger and heavier seeing that weight from the rotors and such. I would look into those first. And a whole lot cheaper... Kevin

    Front suspension / 5 lug / 13" brake thread (long)

    What do you plan on doing with the car? CC plates. Get maximum motorsports. They are the strongest... Especially if you are getting a coil over kit. All the pressure is on the shock tower instead of the kmember. Coil over kit. What shocks are you running? I am not sure about the fitment on...

    Pro-comp Heads?

    First off, our motors weren't designed in a computer before being cast... Our 40+ year old design has seen many improvements over the years but if you get down to it, it is no LSx. Yes the heads these days are designed on cad, wildfire and what not now but they are still working within the...

    Pro-comp Heads?

    um... 210 is quite large for a 302. Typically a 302 should be in the 165ish cc range. 210 is 351w+ stomping ground. Kevin

    Which 302 block is best ?

    The HO blocks are good to about 450 so unless you are serious about hitting that mark, A roller block will be just fine. Typically the HO blocks split down the middle from top down so all the stronger caps and girdles you put on it really won't help. HO blocks are plentiful and cheap. Again if...

    Need help - engine destroyed

    I would also second getting something more than a stock shortblock. With all the cost involved in getting one shipped there... Might as well pay a little more for a built lower. Kevin

    stupid pole question

    Almost the exact same setup as me. Get the TKO. The stock fuel system is fine for your power levels. Your stock fuel rails are going to be the bottleneck if it was the case so for a cheap upgrade, get the sn95 5.0 fuel rails. Thats if you haven't replaced the fuel pump already Kevin
