    Need some camshaft guru advice on power loss from supercharger to nitrous

    I'm still going with jetting. Over on corral he said its 73/42 jetting which is a super fat "175" jetting on old shark kits, not 125. I still use those but keep nozzles kits at 150 or below, otherwise something all ways ended up hurt eventually with distribution issues on efi intakes, prefer...

    Need some camshaft guru advice on power loss from supercharger to nitrous

    Progress Thread BluePrint 347 long block engine swap

    Fine from what I've seen for the most part if you don't try to rev them up there, there heavy for a roller rocker, like 250 grams.. Judging by the dyno cut off of 5900 bpe probably sets em up for 6k and under with the valvetrain and hardware..

    Fox Ideas for Theft Deterrence in Storage

    If its outside pull the fuel pump relay or ignition rotor and buy wheel chalks you can chain together on both sides of the tire. Will stop all but a lift gate repo truck from taking it. As for out side storage go buy a cheap budge car cover, then a cheapy water proof 185-193 generic car...

    Progress Thread Epaws Fox

    Lol at the parts list. "Mater" axles probably moser... If the rear springs are blue and has a bag on the p/s rear probably the old eibach drag kit race drive shaft is probably just an old motorsport aluminum looks like a basic late 90's build

    Best plugs for carb'd roller

    All ways ran auto lite 24's in stock heads, though they call for 25's 1 heat range higher, 3924's if aluminum heads, stock ignition systems mostly gapped at .045 since almost every car had a nitrous kit on it at some point never had issues.

    Engine Explorer - Lower intake internal cleaning

    A few mins with a cut off wheel taking the corner bracket off the upper cleans them up a bit if your painting the upper. If not I would at least clear it to keep it from oxidizing. Edit looks like you all ready sprayed it based on the core plug color though.

    Engine Explorer - Lower intake internal cleaning

    That's pretty much the standard any more..... Used to just by the cheap gasket set for a 96-01 explorer from parts stores that came with the graphite lower intake gaskets for under $20.. MS 95952, but they ain't cheap any more at the stores these days.
