    351 stroker...how much should i expect it to cost

    thanks for the tips....im also curiuos, what is the maximum power you can squeeze out of a really good H/C/I combo on a stock 351 block? And what will the block split at? The 302's seem to peak out right around 300rwhp or maybe a little more...

    351 stroker...how much should i expect it to cost

    I'm thinking about going the 351w route, and stroking it and building it while its at the shop, and then throwing it in my car...heres my question: How much can I expect to pay if I pick up a used 351 block, stroke it to over 400ci (ideally 427), and throw on a really nice H/C/I combo...

    As you all know, my tires SU...CK. So some questions on tires ....

    i just put 275 Nitto 555R drag radials on my 2 rear rims (17x8), they look perfect. Nittos run small, I think a 275 in Nitto is right around a 255 in Michelin for example. If you're stuck on running a 275 I wouldn't get any brand other than Nitto.

    car hesitates below 2000rpms...

    The clutch is also slipping, so that is messing with me a little down low too, but this problem with the powerloss doesnt feel like a bad clutch, although its possible because Ive never driven a car that had a really bad clutch so maybe I just dont know what to expect. Could my semi-bad clutch...

    car hesitates below 2000rpms...

    thanks for the tips guys, there is something a little funny about this problem... Even though the car is experiencing an obvious loss of power between around 1200-1800 rpms, it feels incredibly smooth still (no bucking, strange noises, bogging). Like the car feels like its running perfect, so...

    car hesitates below 2000rpms...

    Like it says, my car feels like its being held back by something, only at around 1200-1700rpms though...Ive done a lot of tune up things recently, and I just ordered my new TPS from Advanced Auto (hoping that is the cause) but I want to get any more opinions of what could be causing this. It...

    i have 15% all around but I have 5% on my drivers side window (do to a miscommunication with the shop), I think it looks sick. I love sitting in traffic and not having anyone be able to see me at all.

    Would a cobra 75mm stock MAF be beneficial to my GT?

    the stock cobra MAF is identical to the stock GT MAF. Dont even bother switching them, my car didnt get any faster when I put a bigger MAF on.
