    Probably. There should be no fuel in a vacuum line, ever.

    Classic Car Insurance

    I have my Saleen Race Car Insured with Hagerty for an agreed value of $45K It cost me right at $450 per year. Mainly due to the fact that it sits in a climate controlled Garage. It is transported in an enclosed trailer. It is not a Street car. It is not insured as I am going down the racetrack...

    What is this Ground Wire for?

    GM to this day still use braided, non shielded (no covering for the braid) ground straps on their vehicles. Half the time a vehicle comes in for a no crank, no start it is because that ground cable is excessively corroded, usually in half. Think the starter is bad? Nope, it is a bad ground...

    Ford Boss 302 Block

    After 4 years of circle track racing, I would say that the wear on that piston skirt is pretty damn good. I have seen a lot worse happen in a shorter time frame. There are a lot of things that can affect skirt wear. Rod Ratio, Piston design, Piston pin height all play a part.

    Lost my Foxbody

    Government confiscation. They add all the fees and fines so that you won't be able to pay. It is a criminal enterprise that is in operation here. Sorry for your loss.

    Dual sync plug gap

    If you have a strong ignition system/coil you may get away with more gap at the plugs. You can experiment a little and find out what the limits are. If you get a misfire under boost, then tighten up the gap a bit and try again.

    Dual sync plug gap

    If boosted I would be in the .022 to .025 range. If N/A I would be in the .035 to .040 range.

    Coupe Rear Glass Cost

    There are quality glass polishing compounds available that do a really good job of restoring glass. Unless the scratches are really heavy, I would not hesitate to buy a scratched piece. It is probably cheaper than one that is in mint condition. A few hours of your time and it could be restored...

    Progress Thread 85GT4V’s “New” 1985 Mustang GT

    Nothing gets washed around here in the Winter. To much snow and to damn cold. I suppose if I ever got hot water run out into the garage I could wash one, but the resultant grit/sand collecting and trying to clog the drain would be a pita to deal with. Would definitely have to do it in the late...

    Temporary solution at best

    If you want to stop losing sockets, or anything else for that matter. Pay a :poo: ton of money on them. You damn well will keep better care of them. I probably have lost a grand total of two 10mm sockets in 45 years of wrenching. How? I buy the Snap On sockets. They cost a bunch, but I don't lose...
