    Remote breather tanks

    I dont have a line going from the catch can back to the intake so other than gravity draining oil to the can, I do understand how it would "pull" oil out. Rick would you explain further as I know you know more about this stuff than I do. I also didn't think it would be a good idea if my vent...

    Remote breather tanks

    I have a similar set up. I have a 90* fitting in the rear of the Dr side fitting & a T fitting in the rear of the passenger side valve cover. I have a 5/8 heater hose between the two VC's & then from the T down to a homemade catch can mounted on the frame down low. I made the catch can out of an...

    That 2x2 .125 wall only come in a 20' section. They will cut it into sections so I can transport it but, you have to buy the whole thing. I dont want to spend big bucks on metal so I have been cutting sections out of my old fenders & hood for patching & small gauge stuff. My heat extractor fan...

    My car wont heat up on highway

    I would agree with ratio411 about the T stat because I had it happen to me. In my old bronco the T stat failed. it was early spring so I thougt I would just take the T stat out & replace it in the fall before I needed a heater. On short trips it would never reach operating temp but, after a few...

    Mine has a 5 lb spring but like Rick said, I think the yellow is a helper spring too. I would try to contact the manufacture to be sure though.

    Thanks for the link. Someone else had pics of the car but, to read the write up on it was nice. Thanks again. Now if I could just get some work done on mine so I could post up some more build pics it would be nice.

    Head Bolts

    When I did mine, I got ARP head bolts from summit & they came with a sealant/lube. I'm no pro so I cant say that's the best but, its what I used & haven't had a problem yet.

    5" back spacing

    I have 5" back space and they do stick out a little. I think the next set of wheels I buy will have 6" back space.

    BOOM it finally broke

    If you sell the blower, I know they are expensive but, what about something like a boost friendly (compression wise)DART block? Then you could boost it later.

    90stang5speed Rear Mounted Turbo Project Thread

    Yeah, the price isn't too bad. For 60 bucks I can get the 2x2 steel for my through floor subframes so I will probably do that first if I can get funding approval from the boss (WIFE).

    3" V band I have found a 3" V band clamp & flanges in a kit on ebay for about $20 plus shipping. So for about $55 you could do both headers.

    Need some help with an intake I saw

    I went the cheaper route & got the summit stage IV. I had to drill out holes for the injector bungs & JB weld them in. At the time I thought it would be an interesting chalenge but, I think I would say go with the edlebrock too. That intake is supposed to be good from 3500-8000 RPM. I dont know...

    With the A/F Ratio, I think he said to start some where around 11 & go conservative with timing to and slowly tweek each. Snow Performance recommends 12.5 with meth injection. I will aim for about 12 as I get everything dialed in. As for things he saw that I could do better, he said that I...

    header wrap

    I have long tube headers. I used one 50' roll per side. I have my turbo where the back seat used to be so, I used another 2.5 50' rolls to do the 2 into 1 exhaust back to the turbo & the last 25' to do the exhaust outlet of the turbo. I got the kit from summit that comes with two 2"x50' rolls in...
