    x-pipe w/muffs VS. Shelby style side exhaust

    i'm looking at killing the 2.25" crush bent pipes under my car. my biggest question is should i save up the $470 for the magnaflow kit or should i just pop the $140 for the shelby style glasspacks to side exit exhaust? loudness really isn't a concern for me as i'm also considering just running...

    anybody have 0.63 overdrive with 4.11s?

    I checked your tire size in you signature, and the size would be 25.82" diameter. with the .63 od and the 4.11's you should see just over 2500 rpm's at 75 mph. that's better than my old ford ranger pu would do. it was at 3300 at 75 mph.

    Gear chart is up....

    its not data, its not subjective anecdotal information. It is cold hard mathematical CALCULATOR. It is good for any year, make, or model. All you need is the transmission ratios, gear ratio, and tire size.

    Have you guys with expensive wheels seen these locks?

    the only prob i see is that locks can be picked, quickly. if it has a cylindar lock rather than a straight key i would be more apt to buying something like that.

    Track Lok Vs. LSD Vs. Detoroit Locker

    Ok, I know how the DL works: Straight cut gears that mesh in and out during corners and lock up fully while going straight, they're loud and aggressive. I know how LSD works: clutch packs that try to deliver power on the straight to both tires but are easier on the ears in the corners, with...

    What next? Brake Question

    the reason i did the ssbc brake kit was b/c my master cylinder went out. i had the brakes pro bled by a machine and the pedal would still sink to the floor. the mc will go out before the wheel cylinders. i'd replace the mc and go from there.

    Oil pushing, any road racers on here?

    the problem is not the oil pressure from the pump or the windage tray, drag racers experience this problem also. there are some kits that take care of the crank case pressure that pushes the oil out of the motor (usually thru the pcv valve). Moroso makes one that is inexpensive that installs...
