    Anyone read "Down-Low 5.0" in MM&FF?

    I just finished a budget rebuild on an old 302 I had sitting in my garage. The motor had 140,000 miles and was running when removed.

    I had Steeda springs in my 89 vert...I loved them, the car handled and rode very well...You get what you pay for.... Its a good Idea to match your springs with your shocks and struts....Dont use the cheap KYBs! I had them and they were good for about a month. Then I switched to Tociko blues...

    The BlueCoupe, my 90 LX 5.0 pics

    What gears are you running? Also,do you have stock upper and lower control arms? If both of these are stock, then looking into a 355 or 373 gear and at least a set of lower control arms would greatly improve your 60ft... Kelly

    Anyone in Asheville,NC or surrounding area?

    Hey guys, My vert is running rich and Ive narrowed it down to the Mass air meter. I was wondering if anyone in the surrounding Asheville area has a MAS calibrated for 24# injecters and if they would allow me to put it on my car too see if it cures my probem? Thanks Kelly
