    Need to replace my timing cover gasket...any gasket recommendations? Tips or tricks for the install?

    I didnt replace it when i replaced my waterpump gasket last year (due to time constraints) and i noticed a little seepage when i loosened up the through bolts and sure enough i have a small persistent leak so going to do it right before this season. Pushing about 12lbs and putting down 500rwhp...

    Want to get into welding so i can do custom work on my car...TIG or MIG?

    I dont doubt the mig can do a great job but when i see all the top builders and high end builders using a TIG for the given application i assume its because it delivers a superior product. I certainly dont expect to be good at it in any short period of time but figure if im going to give it a...

    How'd The Northeast Members Make Out With The Storm?

    We got 30+ inches friday...lost power for 27hrs and some were without power for 4 days...lost some tree branches but luckily everyone and the house were safe. Thankfully only got about 5 inches yesterday...if we had gotten the 18 they predicted it wouldve been a problem

    Want to get into welding so i can do custom work on my car...TIG or MIG?

    Ill definately look at the alpha tig...like i said ive never welded before but im a pretty quick learner so hopefully can pick it up with practice. Ive watched alot of videos and the array of settings and different tips/cups etc seems a little orverwhelming but im sure its like anything else...

    Want to get into welding so i can do custom work on my car...TIG or MIG?

    Dont have any decent welders anywhere near me plus i would like to learn more skills to further enhance my builds. Mainly looking for the ability to weld stainless, aluminum, and sheetmetal so pretty sold on a TIG. Eventually i would like a MIG as well for more structural work. Ive read good...

    Who Here Has Fit Their Own Universal Midpipe? Looking For Opinions

    The pieces im looking at are 304 stainless...i dont believe its a coating but solid 304. I may try and tackle this since i want to swap over to 3" and while im redoing the undercarriage etc might as well do it now. As far as the v bands im not looking at it for the performance value but more...

    Found A Few Tears In My Passenger Lower Torque Box...how Bad Is It?

    I dont know if it showed up clearly or if this is the corner you were referencing but i highlighted the tears i found. And i will be installing battle boxes (lower only since the uppers are no longer used with the torque arm and they are in good shape). Thanks

    Found A Few Tears In My Passenger Lower Torque Box...how Bad Is It?

    So got the car up to start focusing on the undercarriage and the new suspension components (torque arm and k member etc). The drivers torque box and upper look good but i see the lower passenger side has a few tears and i can flex the lower part if i pull on it a little. How bad is it and how...

    Going To Go 3"...how Does This Setup Look?

    Really ive been hearing how good accufab was...they build them based on your setup (heads, block, trans, k member etc)...ill have to look into that more... Ill check out bbk as well...prefer something i dont have to cut up, weld (v bands) and then have coated but i also want it to fit lol.

    Going To Go 3"...how Does This Setup Look?

    Id rather do stepped than adapter plates i think. I am going to call accufab bc ive heard they make some really nice headers and see what kind of price im looking at. Anyone see any leak issues from slip on collectors vs welded? Seems like fitting and removal would be 10x easier.

    Anyone Here Use Ridetech Coilovers?

    I wanted their shockwaves (air coilovers) but not enough spring rate for my application so im going with conventional coilovers. I have MM front coilovers with bilsteins but really like the way the ridetechs look and they have a 1,000,001 mile warranty. Looking to see if anyone has run them...
