    New Radiator and Fan recommendations

    I use the #175 fan as well and I agree that it works well. Did you have to make any mods to get it to fit? I'd like to avoid that.

    New Radiator and Fan recommendations

    Thanks for the advice. I would like to go as inexpensive as possible. The car is old and I have only had it for about a year. It has had two previous owners and I dont know when, if ever the radiator has ever been replaced. I live in the desert and need as much cooling muscle as possible...

    New Radiator and Fan recommendations

    Hey all, Quick question: Im looking to replace my stock radiator. What is the best route to take? I currently run a Flexalite 5.0 replacement fan which works well. Will the fan work on a new performance radiator like a Be Cool, Granatelli, or Ford Racing Heavy Duty without having to make a...

    High mileage blower install

    When doing the new motor thing...what is the best way to go. Im pretty inexperienced, so rebuilding a motor might be a bit much for me. On the other hand, I dont want to spend $4,000 at CHP for a crate motor. I want to be able to do it right, but relatively inexpensive. I'd like to be able...

    High mileage blower install

    Sounds like a good plan. If the block is going bad, what will the pressure be around? Remember...Im a novice. What would be the safe range?

    High mileage blower install

    I appreciate it. I was planning on swapping out the heads and cam too. Its like an either/or thing. That kind of work is just way more in-depth than anything I have done myself. I can handle all of the periferal stuff like the intake, ignition and the exhaust. When you talk about getting...

    High mileage blower install

    By the way...does anybody know of any relatively inexpensive places to get a SC-trim? Like to find the cheapest place possible and still get everything I need.

    High mileage blower install

    Fuel pump shouldnt be too bad. I still have to decide if I want to do it. I just want to be able to do it right without getting to pricey. Thanks for the input guys.

    High mileage blower install

    With that little boost, I should'nt need to change the fuel delivery system will I? I want to avoid that. Too little fundage for lots of mods.

    Question: I want to gain a few more horsepower and I want to get a Vortech S-trim supercharger. I have heard numerous different things about the mileage on the motor and was wondering what others think. I have about 140000 miles on the motor and many people have told me that I shouldnt put on on...

    electric fan good or bad!!??

    This is the fan i use. It seems to work pretty well. Not too hard to install either. It mounts directly onto the radiator using existing holes...no drilling. I dont race...so there isn't a huge amount of strain on the motor, but it does well in the Southern California desert heat...

    Possible to remove passenger side shorty header with motor in car?

    Getting it out wasn't that hard. Just takes some jiggling and some elbow grease...Getting it in is the hard part. Had to loosen the engine mounts and give the engine a little shove towards the passenger side from the plenum of the intake manifold. It only took about an inch of new space to...

    Edelbrock Intake Manifold and 3.73 Gear Install Questions!

    Eddy Ive got the 3.73 gears and noticed a nice difference. RPMs at freeway speed are up, but not too bad. Getting the intake installed will make a huge difference. It did in my previous pony, a 91 GT. I switched to an 89 because my brother was selling it and it was in much better shape...

    Edelbrock Performer RPM Install

    Edelbrock Performer RPM Install

    Hey, forgive me for my lack of knowledge, but I was trying to install an Edelbrock Performer RPM Intake manifold on my 89 GT (before I got deployed). I need some help with where to install the vacuum tubes. I took on the job after helping a buddy on his 87 GT and felt confident that I would be...
