    Which Supercharger?

    I'd go with the Strim, its very reliable, not overly loud, puts out good power, comes with a 3 year warrenty, and if you buy one now you get $100 back. In my opinion its the best for the money.

    Best differential fluid?

    If youre using the stock cover still, the only way to change it is by taking the cover off. As far as what kind, I agree with the above, Royal Purple is great fluid, but so is Redline and Mobile 1. I use Mobile 1 in mine with no problems and is a little more easier to come across than Royal...

    Loud "sqweeky" nosies when driving...

    Put in new coil spring isolators or grease the spings where they hit metal, they tend to make noise there. Also subframe connectors seem to help take creeks out of the body. And grease the control arm bushings and just about anything else that has a grease fitting and you should be good to go.

    installing 8.8 in a ex 4cyl car need help with brake lines

    I don't see why you couldn't eliminate it if you keep the lines secure. I believe its only function is for extra support. When I put stainless steel lines on mine, I think I left that out also.

    RPM Air-Gap or Victor JR?

    I agree, go with the Victor Jr.

    Boost capacity

    You can run a lot more than 12psi with 8.8 to one. You can run 12 psi with 9 to 1 without problems. As mentioned before, make sure you got enough fuel for it and don't run too much timing, and you'll be fine. My new combo is 14psi with 9.7 to one.

    Car wont crank =(

    I agree, try the junk yard. If I remember right, you shouldn't have to replace it all the way back to the tank, the ones under the car are solid metal, so there has to be somewhere you can take it apart at and just change the line between the solid line going to the tank and the solid line to...

    It ran!

    I'd do 150 miles and then 150 miles with the oil change. Also be sure to use regular 10w30. Good luck with the new engine.

    Poilsh Manifold???

    Its not worth the time. I polished mine when I used to use it on the car and it took all day. Its been sitting in my garage for about 3 years so I decided to clean it up and sell it, the highest offer I got for it was $60. So back in the garage it sits. In my opinion all days work, the...

    Anyone using the Holley Systemax II intake?

    Its easier to install than the Trickflow intake? I hate taking that Holley off, taking 1/4 turns with a crows foot sux. I was thinking of replacing it with the Trickflow, maybe I wont now. I might look into the Vortech/Saleen intake, I heard that the upper will bolt to the Holley lower.

    Car wont crank =(

    I thought you ment the one in between the rails. The one from the fenderwell to the fuel rail should be metal with rubber around it if I remember right. Is the line actually damaged or is it not clipped in all the way? Are you getting like a hissing noise when you turn the key on?

    Car wont crank =(

    I could be wrong, but if the rubber lines are leaking between the rails, I dont think its fixable. You may have to get a new rail. But that would definately cause your problem.

    Anyone using the Holley Systemax II intake?

    Its not the coating I'm having a hard time getting off, its getting the actual metal to shine. I have a good amount of experience with polishing, I even polished my old manifold. I'm saying that no matter what I try, the thing won't really shine up. Usually when I polish aluminum, it looks...

    Car wont crank =(

    Definately check your fuel pressure, turn the KOEO and see if it goes to about 40psi and holds that. I had a similar problem and it turned out to be a bad fuel pressure regualor. It would start then immediately die out. The fuel pressure would jump right up to 40 psi and then start bleeding off.

    paint

    It depends whether or not your doing the door jambs, engine bay, trunk area, etc. A basic job, a gallon and a half should do, but definately buy more paint than you need, because if you run out in the middle of the paint job you'll be in trouble. Also you can use the extra for touch ups down...

    need some help badly

    One more thing, does the pulley on the supercharger spin freely? If not thats definately your problem, and that would explain your belt slipping and the engine stuggling to run. When mine went, I could bearly turn the pulley by hand.
