    Went back to the dyno.

    Question...your car isn't an R model, is it? Looking at your avatar makes me wonder. Sick numbers...that's my only comment. Bet you've never lost from a (highway) roll on the street :)

    Went to the track with the Cobra again..

    Awesome. Looks like you and the Supra had a pretty damn good race :)

    Why the Fox Conversions?

    Dave...how far apart were those dyno runs? I'm assuming they weren't on the same day, right? Was it the same dyno? What were you using before the c&L?

    OK, I'm pissed now, I'm not making the right power and oil is still in my intake

    This is the first place I would look...have you? When I got my AFR/FTI combo fired the first time, it wouldn't run right at all...I had to readjust all the valves.

    Why the Fox Conversions?

    Until I see actual proof (i.e....immediately before and after) on the dyno that is increases power...the only advantages that I see are that it gives you a little cleaner engine bay with the ability to use an Accufab TB and not mess with the elbows. A blower car might have some more benefits...

    Rematch Encounter with LS1

    Who says I did lift? ;) I have no doubts his LS1 is putting down 325rwhp/345rwtq based on similar combos. It does weigh a couple hundred pounds more than my car, but I was kindof riding high on my car and it was nice to be brought down, even though I still didn't really lose. And far as...

    Rematch Encounter with LS1

    This story kind of goes back to April right after I got my Heads/Cam done. I raced a friend’s 2002 WS6 with Gears/Cat-back/Lid and a few other simple bolt-ons on the street. He had gone a best of 13.0 @ 108 in this car. We went from every conceivable speed (including a dig) and he beat me...

    Quick U/D Pulley Question...need the alt pully?

    Use the stock alternator pulley...the underdrive one will most likely cause you nothing but problems, I know it did for me.

    1/4 times, Performer vs. Performer RPM

    Great post Ed :) And in case any of you missed it...notice how he kept referring to: POSTING YOUR RESULTS!!! It doesn't matter how you get there, whether it be with AFR's and a Custom Cam or Stock E7's and an alphabet cam. I respect any combo that is fast. Dyno numbers are just fluff...

    Got some untuned dyno numbers

    Nice baseline...only one way to go from here :)

    1/4 Mile times inside...opinions please

    What was your 1/8th ET and MPH? You were saying it was pulling hard to that mark...maybe it was falling off on the big end?

    OT: New toy

    Congrats Dave...I know you've been thinking about one for awhile. I do remember a thread over a year ago or so where you said you test drove one and was very disappointed in it. I guess you can't argue with actual numbers though...even if it is 3,700lb.+. Sadly enough...I'm at the same...

    ugh....looks like it might be rebuild time...

    Yeah...definitely don't jump to conclusions. It's probably a problem that's easy to diagnose, you just gotta run down the list. Start with compression test.

    1/4 Mile times inside...opinions please

    Matt...I've looked at your dyno graph very closely and its is VERY close to mine. I really think your car should have another 4mph in it. Good news is that I think its all in the tuning...mess with FP, timing, and work on your driving and it'll show up. What was the temperature like there...

    motor changing+H/C/I tutorial

    Damn...I didn't realize anyone was still looking at that post. I'll try to get those pics back up. In the meantime...here is a good place to check out as well: http://users3.ev1.net/~voodoostang/headsswap.htm

    FTI/AFR/Edel RPM Upper Dyno Info

    Weird...I was consisting shifting at 6000-6100 and trapping 108.5mph+. I tried dropping it down to 5700-5800rpm and my MPH fell to 107.4. I bumped it back up to 6200rpm and my last 3 runs were all at 108.9mph :)

    Part number for radiator cover?

    LOL...I got lazy when disconnecting my upper radiator hose and didn't take that shroud off. Instead...I pryed back that cover to gain access and ended up ripping the whole thing off when it broke. I took off the entire cover after that...and let's see...that was about 3 years ago, hasn't...

    OT: Hey JAKE

    Very true Grady...very true :) Of course for the longest time (first couple of years that I remember), there was no 94-95 tech section. It was all just "5.0 Tech" and you had to distinquish our unique years from the rest. Same way with Corral.

    OT: Hey JAKE

    I don't know how the ***** you guys with thousands and thousands of posts do it. I've been on here longer than most people and am nowhere near those numbers. Of course, I ONLY post in the tech sections...the lounge/OT areas are a waste of time...life is only too short to read some of that...

    How loud is your fuel pump?

    My Walbro 255lph (GSS340 - Hi-pressure) is extremely loud. I can hear it over my exhaust (BBK LT's & Off-road H) if I tune in to the sound.
