    Anyone ever installed an RPM Extender??

    My extender instructions said that it advanced your timing by 4 degrees, but I recently lost my instructions and had Sam email me the instructions, and they don't state that it advances timing, maybe they changed them recently?? I have mine set @ 12 degrees.

    Brads Custom Auto

    Just looking for some opinions on this shop's work. They had the best price on a vortech s-trim that I've found, so while ordering it I decided to have them install some subframe connectors. They're only installing the subframes, not the s-trim, is this a good place to have them installed. If...

    lower intake gasket probs - help diagnose

    I usually have to re torque the lower a couple of times, usually after a 100 miles or so, but after once or twice , they stayed at the same torque specs. If you're using the torque wrench correctly , then if it is loose by about 10 ft lbs, I wouldn't just leave them, I would re tighten. Idt...

    Thoughts on the FRPP King Cobra clutch?

    I have the KC, its a good clutch, hasn't really given me problems, I am looking into an upgrade though, I think its good for n/a cars that aren't heavily modded.

    MSD System worth it? Hp gain??

    You might gain some hp, but probably not alot, if any. I know that when I put my crane system in, I the main thing I noticed was driveability, starts easier, idles a little better, ect.. I didn't put the system in until after my h/c/i.

    how short will first gear be??

    I've had 4.10's in my auto 87gt, and in my 95 now, Its not bad for gas milage, I would assume it would be close to what 3.73 would be, I would recommend them, althought, if I'm gettin on the throttle, because of traction, I shift into second sometimes before I cross an intersection, but w/some...

    Hanging Idle , How do I cure it?

    You could try to clean your IAC, I had a similar problem w/my 87gt, turned out to be the tps. When your car has its hanging idle, you can unplug the tps and see if it drops, if it does, probably your tps. As far as that thread, I didn't read all of it, but something about enlarging something the...

    Water Temp

    I would think its a combination of not so accurate factory gauges, and the highway vs stop and go traffic. Mine will act similar, always cooler on the highway, but I usually in between the N and O of the guage on the highway, and closer to the middle in stop and go traffic. Might want to get a...

    h/c/i

    w/an average ls1 driver, you should keep up or beat some that are stock or close to, should be enough to be competitive for a stock or near stock one.(spelling??)

    One of my sparkplugs is oily

    You can do the compression test to see if the rings are alright, fi the compression test is ok, I would think you have a valve guide issue on that cylinder. Thats what happened when my valve guides went out.

I know that mac has a catted h pipe, I was going to get that, but wanted and x pipe w/cats, was going to try to get a hold of dr.gas, but found a loop...

    vortech ???'s

    Yeah, I don't plan on going wot or anything after the install, I planned just to install it and either go to a shop to get a tune, or buy the tweecer. There aren't that many shops w/a dyno that I've looked into in my area, so I was leaning toward the tweecer, but haven't made up my mind because...

    Hey everyone, Just had some simple questons, I have finally saved enough money for the vortech kit, and downloaded the install instructions to see what I'm up against. One of my questoins was about the t-rex fuel pump. From what I can see its some sort of external pump that increases fuel...

    4.10's = awesome

    when I had my old 87 gt auto, I switched out the stall and a set of 4.10's, and it felt like a completely different car. I had a choice to go 3.73 w/my 95 , but I'm glad I went 4.10's.

    Whats with this POS car!?!?

    w/those codes, I don't think should really cause to many problems. I thought there was either a tsb or recall about somehting w/the fans. But I would clear the codes, repeat test, and if those same koeo codes come up, start there just to fix. If your car is running rough and you've done the...
