    Supercharger?

    . Really? How much do they cost? Would I need to get a better intake as well?

    Supercharger?

    9.5 to 1 I don't know if this means anything to you, but i checked the compression in all my cylinders and they were all around 170 psi.

    Supercharger?

    I'm looking to buy a supercharger. Any recommendations? Paxton? I see that Paxton claims 35%-55% increase properly tuned. Anyone here have this and get this kind of HP? How much $$$ do these go for? Would this work well with my setup? I only have 100 miles on the rebuild now, but I think...

    What kind of radiator should i buy?

    Do you think a rad from a 93 stang would work well for cooling? I have access to one that is free. I know I'll have to modify a little, relocate the battery, etc.

    What kind of radiator should i buy?

    Thanks for the replies, guys..... I was thinking aluminum, because I thought it would keep the car cooler and like Hack said, they are what is used in modern production cars. Is this true or is this true: "i agree with pbum5, get a good three or four core brass/copper rad and be done with...

    What kind of radiator should i buy?

    Hey all, Could anyone give me suggestions on what to buy for my setup? I have the stock rad on there now and my recent rebuild has been overheating (new block, heads--the other mods I had on previous stock SB). Any decent vendors or brands? I'm not looking to break the bank, so something...

    Torque specs for intake?

    Hey thanks, D. I didn't realize you tightened from the inside out. Should I use anything on the bolts as far as sealant or loc-tite?

    Roller rocker madness....

    Yeah, I'm finding that this may be the best way to go. I didn't do it this way because it seems like such a mess. But, at least I could do it once and be done!! Thanks for all the help....

    Roller rocker madness....

    Hey thanks 66.... I am using a flat tappet cam and am using the 15426378 sequence. I could try and go another 1/4 turn, but I'd be suprised if that made up the difference in the gap between rocker/rod that I have. I don't let the poly lock rotate while tightening the set screw, but read...

    Roller rocker madness....

    I've read anywhere from 1/4 past 0 to a full turn past 0, so I dunno..... I actually tighten the poly lock about another 1/4 turn after I tighten the set screw as well, so I'm about 1/2. Something else I read......

    should I trade??

    I don't know if it's a "deal", but I'd go for the classic over a newer car anyday! Although the new Mustangs have me wanting to buy a new car for the first time..... The 65 is a mean machine, but not sure it's a straight up swap for your GT. Don't get me wrong, I actually prefer the coupe...

    Roller rocker madness....

    Hey guys/gals I have Probe 1.6 roller rockers that I've been "attempting" to adjust. I bring the #1 cylinder to TDC (I know it's TDC 1 and not 6 cause I feel a gust of air on the up stroke over #1 plug and can see the piston at the top) and adjust both rockers. I adjust by moving the push...

    kid in need of advice

    I would start with the carb, intake and cam (you can buy performance packages that have all this included--Edelbrock, etc.). You could do this over the weekend. Then when you get a little more money add a nice ignition/distributor, exhaust and headers....I have Hooker long tubes and have no...
