    x-pipe?

    I have the catted Pypes X and It sounds like NASCAR to me. It still has the drone but not as deep. I really like it.

    No oil pressure....need help....

    Make sure you run the drill in reverse when priming. I think that is all you will need.

    Roller Rockers

    It was running very well. I did not hear anything unusual until I decided to push it hard through a couple gears and then all of a sudden it started ticking kinda of loud and it seemed as if not all of the cylinders were firing correctly. What do you mean that the pushrods have to be primed...

    Roller Rockers

    OK so I think I may have a problem. I have put about 50 miles on my car now with just having the engine rebiult. I got on it through a couple of gears and then the car started misfiring and ticking. I'm wondering if the rockers need to be adjusted. Is it normal to have to keep adjusting...

    Rear end Gears

    My car has 200K miles so I have to have bearings and all done. They are telling me 6-7 hours labor at $65 per hour. If I'm correct, there is much more to it when replacing bearings. Let's see, I paid $3,000.00 for this convertable and so far I have almost $9,000.00 into re-building it and I'm...

    Which tuner is king

    I'm in Michigan, The $950.00 also includes the chip but yes I agree this is expensive. I am pretty technical as my career is Biomedical electronics and computers. I feel that I could catch on. It looks like the biggest learning curve is all the terminology. I'm not looking to make a race...

    Which tuner is king

    There is a Tuner shop near my house and they can install a chip and do a full dyno tune. They have a good reputation but is $950.00 for a complete tune better than trying myself with no experince? And does the $400.00 price for the Tweecar include the chip?

    sun visors for 94 GT convertable

    I have looked every where. The ones I have are crap. you can not do anything with these as they are cardboard. Try and get one apart and you will destroy it in the process. I will probably shell out the big bucks and go to the dealer for some new ones. That is if newer year models will...

    Oil Pan again

    Repair completed, This pan does work and I ditched the high volume oil pump for a stock one. The guy who built my motor is a stock car racer and they always use high volume oil pumps. I learned that you don't just throw a high volume pump on your car without upgrading your distributer gear...

    My oil pan has a crack. I was thinking about removing it and having it brazed but it's rusty bad. I have another Oil pan that will fit the 302 but it doesn't have the threaded hole for the low oil idiot light sensor. Do I really need this? How would I remove this without having the check...
