    Supercharger Questions

    I like my oil fed Vortech just for the fact that the engine oil lubricates the supercharger so when I change my oil, they both get changed. I wouldnt mind either though, less lines = cleaner engine bay.

    No oiling from rocker on my 331 *VID*

    UPDATE Took my intake off last night and turned the oil pump over to see whats up. Well the lifters dont seem to be the problem as I switched them with another one and same scenario. The oil does come out of the lifter but not enough to actually reach the top of the pushrod. Here are my...

    If you were buying a blower...

    Sc-Trim is my choice but either one of all those that Rick91GT mentioned are all good. Whatever you can get the best price on is what I would get.

    AutoMeter Mechanical Water Temp & Stock Gauge Question

    I have this problem all the time. Sometimes it works fine, most of the time it will take about 15 min than finally the gauge will zoom right to 180 or whatever the coolant temp is. I figured it was a ground problem but I've redone the connection a bunch of times and never got it to work...

    No oiling from rocker on my 331 *VID*

    Scary stuff!!! Well I blew it out the best I could with no luck. I even took one of my stock lifters and tried it and it blew the oil right out of em no problem. Seems as though it's best to blow air through the lifter to make sure the passage is not blocked BEFORE assembly. If anyone...

    Centerforce dual friction..opinions?

    +2. Had a Centerforce Lite Metal setup, now a pro-motion custom. The King Cobra was the best clutch Ive had in my car. Held up to 405rwhp and the cost is almost half of the dual friction setup. Unless you plan on pushing the hp that you need the centerforce, save some money and get the...

    trick flow valve covers..oil fill hole?

    Hopefully you havn't drilled that hole yet as there is another thing you should look at. Considering there is no baffle under the valve cover, you want to drill the hole so it will be directly between any two rockers. This way when you look in the hole, you shouldn't be seeing the direct...

    HELP REAR BUSHINGS OR CONTROL ARMS

    Replace rear bushings. Problem solved. New control arms are a nice upgrade with poly bushings but depends if you plan on racing the car or not for it to be worth it. If not, new rubber bushings will do the job and still keep good ride quality. Also the cheapest route.

    Quick mid-pipe swap question

    Stock pipes should be studs. No gasket required for ball flanges Good idea to soak the bolts as they might break. I would not be surprised if you snapped a few stock studs getting it off. Your best bet is to replace them with a pair of BBK shorties so you start with all brand new stuff...

    No oiling from rocker on my 331 *VID*

    Not sure because there is too much crap in the way to take off. Unless I really have to I will pull the other side but I'm gonna still try the air method in the next couple days. Everytime I put my motor together, ALL of the pushrods were blown out with brake cleaner and looked through to...

    No oiling from rocker on my 331 *VID*

    With over 1,000 miles on the clock, using common sense, if there was no oiling to that rocker that the pushrod end and cup inside the rocker would be extremely worn if there was no lubrication. This really doesnt seem to be the case but I plan on pulling a working rocker to compare the...

    No oiling from rocker on my 331 *VID*

    I will try the air method and see what I come up with. I also did not soak them before hand, just dunked them in oil and stuck em in there. I wouldn't think I would have this problem on just one as all the others seem to perform fine. I believe our motors are oiled from the back to...

    dropped tranny...couple Q's

    I can think of 1 thing you forgot. Get yourself a new "Pivot Ball". This is what your clutch fork slides onto and allows movement and a restraint. I recommend getting a replacement that is "Non-Adjustable" therefore you wont have to worry about adjustment. It should be around $12-$15...

    No oiling from rocker on my 331 *VID*

    I put brand new OEM Ford Racing Lifters in 1,000 miles ago but had this ticking for a good amount of time which I "think" is the same problem. How does the rocker recieve oil anyways so it shoots up the pushrod? I'm trying to figure out how this oiling system works just for sake of...

    No oiling from rocker on my 331 *VID*

    So for a while I've been having this "clattering" coming from what first thought was an exhaust leak and wasn't. Than I checked the rockers and this is what I found. It seems that #5 cylinder, intake side I believe is not getting any oil coming up the pushrod and on top of the rocker. All of...

    Nasty snot-substance buildup in intake! AAHH!!

    Check your EGR gasket. Coolant flows through there.

    what are these TWO things and can i delete them? *pics*

    I have one installed on my car except "0" balance so there were no weights on mine. My Centerforce had holes drilled in it for the 50oz imbalance. It seems as though someone may have stuck that in there down the line and it's not supposed to be but I would not put my money on it. Call...

    need a clutch

    My old King Cobra held 405rwhp fine with my stock trans. Best clutch I ever had in the car. Than I went to a Centerforce lite series and had nothing but trouble. Now have a Pro-Motion Custom clutch and it's ok but no where near as good as my King Cobra was. Get a King Cobra!!! Cheap, easy to...

    what are these TWO things and can i delete them? *pics*

    I would call the manufacturer and ask them. They are the ones that made the unit. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO KNOW FOR SURE!!! Unless you like to live dangerously? ;)
