    Gear Install - Tampa Area

    I’ll be in the Tampa area next month (Aug) and could use some suggestions on where you guys are getting gears installed. I called a local performance shop in Irvington, Al and they want $400.00 in labor alone to install gears. If you live in or around the Tampa area and have had a gear swap...

    Dealer gear cost

    Your not kidding, I was absolutely shocked when he said $400.00 I puckered up and got off the phone as quick as I could. Now I’m back to square one looking for a shop to do quality work and there just isn’t any shops here, that I’m aware of, I can rely on. :( -Cale

    Dealer gear cost

    Well, I’m holding off on the gear swap for now. I talked to JMS yesterday about installing gears and was told $400.00 for just labor. :eek: I’ll run these 3.27s from now on before I pay that much in labor fees. -Cale

    replacement bolts?

    Well, I was still looking for that sweet spot tonight and adjusted my timing a little. I’ve always been a bit worried that dirt and crap would get into the bolts of the adjuster and keep the wrench from seating all the way. Thank goodness I was tightening it when it rounded out the inside of one...

    people with 00 read here?

    These are all good suggestions especially shifter and gears on a stock car but I would also consider some quality sub-frame connectors to keep the body flex and rattles down to a minimum. -Cale

    3.90s

    I don’t mean to hijack this thread, apologies to the original poster. When ordering gears, which I’m about to do, are all vendors the same when it comes to what is included with a purchase. I don’t need a rebuild kit so when I order gears will they come with everything needed to make a gear...

    Did I gain any RWHP?

    NEVER stick your hand out the window while driving or just sitting in your car, you'll loose 5rwhp. If you must stick your hand out the window, shortening the antenna will regain 3 of these lost 5rwhp. :rlaugh:

    How long before you get an SES light with on O/R Mid pipe?

    I didn't get 35 miles up the road before mine came on after installing a prochamber. Then went through 3 sets of PnP MILs before I finally got the light off. I've heard of people not getting a SES light after installing a mid-pipe but I believe eventually it will come on. -Cale

    How far do Steeda Crank Pulley go in? Mine's not going all the way :(

    It will be hit or miss on the RTV unfortunately. The stuff is flexible and if you put enough in the key-way slot it still may prevent a leak. It would have been best to clean and add new RTV but it just might make a seal. Clean the pulley good with a rag and inspect for oil over the next day or...

    How far do Steeda Crank Pulley go in? Mine's not going all the way :(

    My pulley slid on the crank farther than that. I just checked mine and I can’t get the ignition key between it and the engine block. -Crude yes but gives an idea. Hate to ask a silly question but you did line up the key-way before you started tightening the pulley onto the crankshaft right? A...

    How do you work the VOLTAGE METER? Going to install plenum/tb tomorrow.. *PIC*

    Probe the middle wire on the TPS switch with the red probe and I just stuck the black probe in the metal ground band between the hood and firewall. It’s a PITA to hold both wires in place and make an adjustment to the TPS at the same time (if there is an adjustment needed and you’re by...

    Accufab Plenum/75mm TB arrived. Some Q's before the install?

    Loosen everything up first before you unbolt the stock upper intake and remove the upper intake and TB as one unit. Then install the new TB and upper intake as one unit, it’ll be easier to un-mount and mount things this way. Use the new gaskets and save the old ones. Take a picture before hand...

    Anyone in Mobile, Al or surrounding areas know where I can find a shop to have gears installed ? I’m looking for a place that does quality work and labor fees under $300. Willing to travel as far East as Crestview, Fort Walton Beach and as far West as Slidell, La. Thanks, -Cale

    Great Gas Mileage!!!

    I made a trip this past weekend myself, not that far 304 miles. I topped the tank off before the trip and before a low fuel light pumping 12.382gallons at $2.01.9 and zeroed the trip odometer. After the trip and before getting a low fuel light, I topped the tank off again pumping...

    Launch with TractionControl on or off?

    JCKnife: I can't agree with you more, the original question was "Launch" and no where did I recommend anyone should be launching at a stop light or on wet/icy roads. My last post was intended for those insisting TC has nothing to do with brakes being applied while TC is on. That was the big...

    Launch with TractionControl on or off?

    “Let's say you're at a stoplight on wet pavement. The light turns green and you press too firmly on the accelerator pedal. There is slick asphalt under your tires and the wheels begin to spin. The traction control system instantaneously kicks in, sensing that the wheels have begun to slip...
