    95 3.8L V6 Supercharged?

    Since you're here and you've already asked....you'll need the heads, too. They are different from the standard 3.8 heads. The ports are a lot bigger on the SC heads. Actually a donor car with all the intake tubes and connectors (and engine brackets and such) would help a lot. You...

    ARRRGGHH! All ready to drop in the Cobra engine, and none of my friends are free....

    At least you're working on a car! I have been putting new vinyl siding on my house for the past month. (SOME evenings and a weekend or two.) My GF came over to help a few times. She was "worried" that she wouldn't know what to do. I told her it was about the "support" and to have someone to...

    Went to car show yesterday

    I really like the "mechanical" sound of Tool. I really like "Vicarious". Very cool with all of the stuff going on in the song and it all fits and works together. It is a serious "speaker blower" if it comes on in the car. ;) Their videos are always BADA$$, too.

    Help in Ohio???

    There is a guy in Marysville (about an hour from you) that is certainly up to the task. His name is Jan Wilkerson and his number is 614-374-0046. He has built-up several classic cars that are absolute award winners. His bread and butter though is later model car repair. He's the ONLY guy...

    I went to see Uncle Ted this evening..AWESOME!

    Here are just a few pics that I took, while I was there. Before the games began: In process: Cat Scratch Fever!!!! (Always on his black Byrdland that he is known for. ;) ) Great White Buffalo!!! (Always on the white Byrdland.) You have to love a guy that...

    Are we MORPHING our cars into something that's a far cry from a true Mustang?

    When you consider that the VERY first Mustangs were 6 cylinder/automatic cars that were designed to appeal to secretaries and small families (the first car was based on the Falcon chassis) and it turned out that the foundation was so good and so popular that by the late 60's, FORD had modified...

    Went to car show yesterday

    You guys have the whole 50 cent, St Louis rapper thing going on out there. They kinda put SL on the Rap Map, so everyone out there thinks they're a Gangsta. I get around to a lot of small towns, here in Ohio. They all seem to have different types of cars as their "preferred" hot rod...

    Bumper GAP...Anyone else hate how our cars..

    You guys are funny! It's not like you paid $50k for your Mustangs! if it bothers you that much, take em apart and work the panels until they suit you. (I'll bet money that no one here cares THAT much.) Its part of the "charm". That sort of fit and finish would have made our 'Stangs too...

    I need some BASS in my car.

    Ya. I'm pretty well "over" having a big sub box in the trunk. My goal is to make the system totally transparent, so that NOTHING can be seen. (Except maybe the headunit.) I'll probably run a single 10" in the spare tire well (I have Cobra brakes and refuse to pay ~$200 for an original...

    What's the best best way to preserve chrome wheels?

    If it is a high quality chrome, it should be really simple. Keep them clean, using soap and water. (Windex is good for streak free quick cleanup. I had some Cragar SS's that I even used steel wool to clean, when the rust finally did come through in spots.) Keep them out of the road salt, at...

    I need some BASS in my car.

    Does anyone here know the volume of the spare tire well? Maybe we could find a "perfect" driver to fit there. The cool thing about that is that you can mount the amp on the bottom side of the MDF and hide the whole thing. Then, some 6.5" or 8" mid basses for the doors and rear parcel deck...

    I need some BASS in my car.

    It's called a Bass Shaker. You can get it at the Parts Express link that was in an earlier post. I've thought about them but they will only be effective to about 60-80hz. A good idea, though. I'd like to see someone try them out. A single 10" in the spare tire well seems the be the best...

    Sound deadening my Bronco

    For the floor, a lot of Jeep guys are taking out the carpet/liner and using the same material that you use for truck bed liners. From front to back. It's waterproof and has some sound deadening ability plus, you can use it on the insides of the doors and such. You can buy it by the can at...

    regret doing cam

    Really dumb question: Have you thoroughly checked for vacuum leaks? I thought that the E cam got along with our computers. How about plug gap? Good injectors? (Even 19#'ers wouldn't cause those issues.) Are all the connectors on the inj's good? Did you consider using the stock MAF and TB...

    Sold my block now I think Im getting screwed...

    I just looked at his last post on the other forum. 1) Why would you pull the engine all the way down to mains and rods and leave the oil filter and engine mounts on? 2) I don't see an inprint of an intake manifold on the sealer on the "china walls". Looks like it was just dabbed there...
