    C&L MAFS---Power gain?

    I borrowed my brother's C&L 73mm and MAC cai on the last track day. It was the only change to my car and I bested my previous times by two tenths. Needless to say, I now own a 73mm C&L.

    Wiring alternator to Trunk battery???

    That's how it is run from the factory. But as others have said, to be track legal you have to run it to the back. No way of getting around it.

    Turbo Stang

    I say buy the turbo kit and put it on the 302. Run low boost 8-10psi and run it that way for awhile. You'll learn how to tune it, drive it, etc. Meanwhile, start building a longblock. You'll have a blast with the 302 and once you're ready to step it up in power, you'll have that built...

    Guys with dry nitrous kits...

    You should be okay with 8*, 125 shot. There are a lot of factors, such as bottle pressure, engine mods, carbon build up, load, etc, but I think you'll be ok. Get the 255 pump. Lets face it, your mods won't end here. If/when you add H/C/I you'll need the large pump with nitrous.

    Guys with dry nitrous kits...

    Definitely the fuel pump and the plugs are a good idea. I would hold off on the retard until you need it for sure. Check the plugs for any signs of detonation, but at 8* and 125 shot you should be okay. Do you have a bottle heater?

    need help on debating between a pms,tweecer, or custom tune/chip

    He lists Canadian prices, so your tuner should do it for cheaper. http://www.performance-shop.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=14623

    Lets see some pics of 5.0's with 10Hole Rims

    No, I stripped them first. Then started at 80 grit and worked up to 800 grit. Then used tripoli and white rouge.

    Lets see some pics of 5.0's with 10Hole Rims

    Rims are aluminum and get polished like any other aluminum piece. My tire sizes are 245/60's on the back and 165/15's on the front. Those polished rims have also been narrowed to 15X5", allowing me to run the skinny front runners.

    In the first pic, the fronts are polished. All the other rims shown are just factory. A pic of the fronts... <img src="http://www3.telus.net/VXHatch92/After.jpg"/img>

    It would be cheaper to buy one off ebay. They get listed every now and then.

    How does a March bracket work?

    Don't know what to say. I couldn't have gotten a shorter belt to fit and I tried a couple different tensioners. Maybe I'm unlucky or you're lucky. Trust me, I tried everything I could before laying out more cash to March.

    How does a March bracket work?

    You don't want this setup. Mine squeels like a little pig whenever I load the 3G. I can't run my radio and heater at the same time. I've switched to the March #1465. It's the adjustable alternater bracket. Then install a standard rotation waterpump. The 1465 kit... And...

    Who has the highest spinning 302 (or stroked 302)?

    Like others have said... light components and good induction. You'll also need to increase compression. If you look at super stock cars, they should give you some clues.
