    Those in the northern climates...

    Most of the Michigan guys set up stuff in the local section of the boards, but I am sure there are events out there. I'm lucky enough to live close to a few people (some I still haven't met) But I like the woodward dream cruise - it's within walking distance.

    Ordering Question

    If you are like me the line: "if you want to sell me the car, you won't ask for a deposit" works well in most cases.... But the most I would put down would be $500.00

    New Toy Pics

    Not that I don't agree with this saying for certain applications, but my boat has been in the water every year since 1982 (when it was new) and has never needed a major overhaul. Now that I am starting to race it though... I'll be spending money on making it faster and better up-keep...

    Has anyone used this Floor Strut Bar?

    If you already have full lenght SFC's look into a strut tower brace from MM or a respectible company. That really helps to tie the front section of the "boxes" together... I theorize that the shock tower brace on the fox platform is useless simply because the towers are not very tall, thus...

    belt tensioner

    You can make one with some rod stock, two spherical rod ends and some basic hand tools. Or you can get the set from March?

    K&N Air filter question

    Good question: Stock MAF is 55mm, but aftermarkets can go up to 90mm (or larger.) Are you running a mechanical fan? Some people report rough idle conditions with a open element filter like that from the fan wash.

    My car got F'ED up

    Probalby just from the heat cycling of the heads and bolts, they worked themselves loose enough to put all the pressure on the bottom bolt. I'm sorry that it happend to you man, but it should be a pretty easy fixer. Try slotting the remaining bolt for a screwdriver fitting. Save the...

    Has anyone used this Floor Strut Bar?

    I haven't used one, but below are my thoughts on strenghening the chassis: The frist step towards a solid structure is tying the front and rear portions of any car into the subframes. These are the overhanging sections where almost all flexing occurs. Adding Subframes results in the...

    Horsepower on 2007 GT's

    The new standard didn't really effect most of the domestic OEM's as much as it did the asian car compaines. The therory is that Ford, Chevy and Chrysler switched to the standard with their latest engines prior to the release.
