    dont know if anyone has noticed...but

    Cause, to me anyhow, he comes off as very condescendening. I know he is the go to guy for NMRA racers and such, but if I ask a question on SN, I get fellow stangers who just want to help out. If I ask the same question on the other site, I may get some helpful answers, but far more BS telling...

    what ignition system to use???

    I am running a 300+ on my stang and a 6A on my truck. I have no compaints with the Accel, except that my stock tach quit working shortly after hooking it up, it now just jumps around a lot. I would get the Accel instead of the 6A based just on price, but if you are planning on getting the 375+...

    Anyone use Probe Pistons?

    Yes, while I appreciate the replies, my inquiry was not as to whether they were quality pistons, but if the FPS's did indeed have larger reliefs than stock, or if I would have to move up to a more costly alternative. So, has anybody used a set of the FPS's where an otherwise stock unit would...

    Anyone use Probe Pistons?

    Yes, I realize there are a myriad of piston manufactures that make products that will work with my intended application, but the FPS pistons are only $315 a set new. That's quite a difference from the 5 or 6 hundred dollars for JE, SRP, Wiseco and others. Wicked93, are you running the FPS or...

    Anyone use Probe Pistons?

    So, I just got off the phone with the sales rep at Probe. According to him, there is absolutely no difference between their FPS pistons and TRW forgings. On Probe's own website, they had this to offer: Forged of VMS-75 High Silicon Aluminum for lasting performance. Light weight forging...

    87-93 Which year had forged pistons?

    I won't say the shop yet, I think I might end up having something done there. I would measure the bores myself, but I don't have a bore gauge lying around. I'm hoping if I just take the block there, he will at least check it out and see what the taper looks like. Another thing though, he said...

    87-93 Which year had forged pistons?

    Reviving this post, my 87 pistons have casting number E7ZE-6110-CA. Was the E7ZA above a misprint? Also I thoght no 93's had forged as mentioned above? BTW, I went to the machine shop today, the owner thought I was nuts when I told him 5.0 HO's had forged. He wouldn't belive me. I was...

    Valve cover to TB line help

    I am going to install a set of Trick Flow VC's that do not have an internal oil baffle. There is no room to install a baffle. Does anyone have any ideas on how to help prevent/lessen the oil from entering the TB? I know I can install a filter inline, or a catch can, but I was wondering if...

    One piece oil pan gasket

    Sure, it is FEL-OS34508R. It is rubber over metal, I am just kinda wondering why Fel Pro says it's not for racing use. Dosen't make sense to me.
