    2 batterys in car

    Tell your buddy to upgrade his alternator. Hooking up another battery is just placing another load on to the already under powered alternator. Trust me, it would be a waist of money. If he has a stang, buying an upgraded alternator is only going to cost him about 150 dollars and besides having...

    H Pipe....stock or aftermarket?

    yes it will affect it... you can get an aftermarket one with cats that flow allot better then the stock one. I have a pro-chamber on right now, i bought a used stock one for when i go through the sniffer in NJ. Cost wise, either option will cost you about the same.

    Are Autolite 3924's ok for GT40X heads?

    were you showing signs of running rich with your old plugs? i have 24 lb injectors and my afpr is set about 38. i switched to 3924 and my car seems to run good once it is warmed up.

    Temp running around 180... is this good?

    pull the stock fan off and let her idle. maybe your cooling is good enough that it never reaches 195 and when it does it cools very fast. pull the fan off and then watch the gauge. i have an electric fan and if i leave her off and watch the gauge it gets up to 180, chills their for a little bit...

    Electrical Problem PLZ HELP!!!

    well 12 volts is not going to do it. i am assuming you did hook the white wire up (i believe that is for the voltage regulator) which has its own new harness on the new alternator. it is a single wire that you have to splice into a wire of the factory harness (at least that is what mine had)...
