    aluminum flywheel good or bad??????

    Torque does not suffer. When looking at a stepped dyno output, you will see exactly the same torque; however the system becomes slightly more efficient under dynamic conditions because you are reducing the overall system inertia. This allows you increases your overall angular acceleration in...

    calculate compression ratio

    You do not want to do this if you can avoid it, this is only a band aid. You will decrease the efficiency of your motor as you will start affecting the "Squish" in the combustion chamber, which is how the motor helps induces eddies and swirl that help burn all that fuel/air that are drawn into...

    Is this for real?

    Those guys are in the weeds, not even the DR Trimmer could get them out, i can't believe that there are those out there that believe in that crap.

    For those with "In Car" fuel pressure gauges

    My needle is still and doesn't move, i think you might be right but make sure it's not your gauge or sender first (if it's not mechanical).

    How many here had to change pushrod lengths with your mods?

    Why not just measure them and order the right ones instead of guessing? :shrug:

    Anyone know the red book values for 93 Cobra's?

    The blue book of these cobras depends on a lot of factors and can't be left up to KBB: the overall condition, the miles on the car, the records that were maintained, the originality (or ability to have all the original parts), the carfax, what production number it is (#460). I have seen...

    got a little closer

    I changed steering wheels when i started racing the car (didn't want the air bag deploying on me and wanted something a little smaller), i never switched back to the regular wheel, so i always have the light on...needless to say, i have a piece of tape on the cluster that blocks the light out.

    gear ratio 3:55 or 3:73

    I like the 3.55's, i had 3.73's and the 3.55's are much smoother, i didn't seen any difference at the track - was still running about the same time and i didn't have to shift near the end any more.

    internal combustion engine to run on......SALTWATER!!!!

    It is interesting, but it will take much more energy to create the fuel than you will get out of burning it. It has some promise in communities that may choose to set up a transportation system, but the long term effects of the radio wave emissions will need to be studied.

    TO DO OR NOT TO DO ELECTRIC WATER PUMP

    Actually, I can make that statement. 1) A thermostat is used to keep the engine at a constant temperature (within a certain design range) by opening when the temperature gets too hot, and closing when it cools. You are correct that a thermostat will restrict the flow, but it's primary...

    High RPM Coolant Leak

    It also could be the head gasket with the beginning of a leak...under high load it may be pushing gas into your cooling system causing havoc that can not be seen under idle or low load.

    Smoke problem: change valve stem seals with heads on car?

    Also make sure you have all your holes plugged up and do not lose your keepers, if those things pop off funny, sometimes they are demons to locate.

    TO DO OR NOT TO DO ELECTRIC WATER PUMP

    Why are you putting a restrictor in the thermostat??? You think the hole is too large allowing the water to move thru the ratiator too fast??? Where do you think the rest of the water resides? The engine temperature gradient is way steeper than the ambiant/radiator temperature gradient, you...
