    Need painting tech - Paul, I need you

    ummmm, where to start! first, what brand? next, have you "pre fit" it all, meaning spent a grip of hours making the lines correct? i really hate to see a poor fitting hood, and even the best ones, "cervini" require a few (2-10 ) hours of prep time before prep sanding is even needed...

    Is my torque convertor shot????

    NOPE. you need to add some tension, or have a tranny shop set it right.

    good c4 for decent price

    what useage? drag? what power level? the "super streeter" from p.a. is cheap, and pretty solid for a mild engine. i used one of their "comp" c4's with a manual vb, and loved it. this was behind a 300rwhp or so 302, and then a well over 500rwhp combo, then back to a ~330 rwhp...

    If 10 degrees BTDC is standard timing, what is advance?

    well, you need to also remember, whatever you run initial, the computer is going to add it's timing to it.........then, you need to really start worrying about your total timing. at WOT, the computer is not in closed loop. i dont care what any sensors sans the maf, and tps are doing, you dont...

    When Porting the E7TE Head...

    well if your too nervous to remove it all the way, get it as close as your comfortable with, and round it up, blend, smooth, whatever ya wanna call it.....just try and think of limiting turbulence........think if it was flowing water, whats the best, easiest least turbulent way to move it thru...

    If 10 degrees BTDC is standard timing, what is advance?

    he is wrong becuase, as was already correctly pointed out above, the computer adjusts timing BASED on the factory setting of 10*. check your timing with the spout in, start car cold.......see where your at. remove the spout, it will only drop to where you set it, and the computer adjusts...

    Is it worth porting stock heads?

    unless your in a heavy sprung mustang! too damned bumpy! even in my sd, not very comfortable. i would take a paved road any day, assuming traffic on both was not a factor. :grin: why dont ya just get some AFR 225's, and throw em on a 363 stroker dart block, with a YSI, and an...

    To buy or build my AOD

    NOT SURE, but i dont think ya priced those hard parts yourself. no offense.......but here in fresno, we pay far too much for anything! fwiw, you can get a low milage 4r70w from a wrecking yard for 250 all day. you can take everything out of it, INCLUDING the wide ratio gearset, or you...

    To buy or build my AOD

    if you can get your hands on a core aod, you can build something better, and stronger then the lentech, for alot less..and then run a GOOD converter, rather than what they sell......... just another thought.... i built my own aod, and it is not hard. and the parts are NOT expensive. with a...
