    painting equipment! what do you suggest?

    Painted my car myself in my garage and yah that is way too small, i have a 65 gal and even that sucks sometimes. There's a lot of work involved in painting and depending on how you want the car to look you gotta buy the tools to do a good job. Gotta have a regulator on the gun too especially...

    Trans hard to shift

    Yeah the throw out bearing is kinda been giving my grief. As fair at the retainer on the tremec its nothing special "which sucks" consider how much i paid for it. When my clutch starts to act up i'll replace everything including the flywheel, last time it was resurfaced it had almost no meat...

    Trans hard to shift

    I adjusted the cable as far is it will go and it helped just a little bit but still makes noise. I'm thinking the throw out bearing is shot, it made tons of noise enough you couldnt hear the car and now its silent and quiet again "no matter what even if i adjusted the cable' I did notice since...

    lightning motor in a fox?

    Well first of all i wouldnt be telling many people of your buddies plans of getting rid of the truck because too many run there mouths off sometimes which can get other people in trouble. Just make the truck "disappear" and maybe have some parts come your way. Get what i'm saying?? :D

    One hell of a problem

    well first problem is you took it midas. I would not let any of those work on my car even if they paid me, they wanted 1200 bucks to put a factory exhaust back on my 88 bronco. I stuck my hand out for the keys back. Anyway back to your problem, you might need to check the timing and see if...
