    Will these work with my setup?

    I think they will be fine for your combo, but I am no expert. Email them and see what they say. I asked them about those springs usings a steeda #18(same lift as b303) with 1.7's, and they said I would need to go with a double valve spring. I think those are only a single spring with a damper...

    Need advice on a bargain-306 for $2600

    Sounds pretty good. How many miles are on it? The thing I would be a little worried about is the fact that he had 16lbs of boost going into it. What the compression ratio n/a?

    Question about setup! GT-40 Crate motor + more

    No, the gt-40 crate motor comes with the aluminum gt40x heads if I am not mistaken. The cobra had normal cast iron gt40's on it. What kind of intake manifold do you have on that thing?

    Couple questions about milling heads

    hmmm, now I am not sure. I will NOT be using a cam with less than .500" lift though, even though that shouldn't really matter too much. I will ask the machine shop about what they think when it comes time for me to bring the heads in for the valve job. What kind of compression would it raise it...

    No Start When Hot

    Might also want to check the negative battery cable. They seems to crack/deteriorate after time, and could also cause this problem.

    Couple questions about milling heads

    Mike, you always have an answer to my questions! Props go out to you. Anyway, I never really thought about all of that. Now that I think about it, all that trouble doesn't seem to be worth the couple extra hp I might get, and the price as well. I just wanted to check with you guys though as...

    Couple questions about milling heads

    Well I am trying to port my stock heads in whatever time I have, but it may take a little while longer still. I just started thinking about milling the heads down a bit. I didn't take them to a machine shop yet to check for true, but I think they will be ok. I will be staying N/A for quite a...

    Opinions anyone??

    Low 13's would require hooking up very well, probably some weight loss, and some very agressive driving. I see more along the lines of mid to high 13's though.

    rough idle..

    What did you change when you did this? Just the plugs, or plugs and wires? Sounds like you have a possible wire mixed up, so it is missing. Did you gap the spark plugs correctly?

    Calling all Engine Techs !!!!!

    What kind of money are you looking to spend? I don't know about that GT40 long block. I know someone who has the 345hp one, and when he dynoed it, he only made something like 265 to the wheels.

    is this calculator rwhp or fwhp?

    What it actually says is that the peak horsepower has to due with the e.t. you put in, and that the average horsepower is due to the mph. So if you spun and got a high mph, but not a very good et, it will show up wrong.

    Fuel Pump Cut-off switch?

    I didn't try that, but I am sure that it won't work that way. Reason being, when the key is in the on position, there will be current going through the pink/black wire which I am not supposed to splice into, because it is turning on the pump. There will also be power going through the red/black...

    Fuel Pump Cut-off switch?

    So should I splice into the solid red wire since mine isn't red/black for some reason?

    Fuel Pump Cut-off switch?

    I appreciate the help, but I don't have a red/black wire. It is just a solid red. Going by tmoss's diagram, I have the pink/black wire, the tan/green wire, and the orange/blue wire. It's just that the red wire is not red/black. Is that still the wire I splice into, the solid red wire that is?
