    Brake guru's...i need help please....

    many n.o.s. questions

    nothing is ever 'safe', but a wot switch & a window switch will go a long way in protecting your motor. as for which brand, that's a matter of opinion. personally i like the nitrous express kits

    Brake guru's...i need help please....

    oddly enough, they were. i didn't know about the 12-6 thing (actually forgot about it again until you mentioned it there), but my buddy that was helping me did, so we just ground it off since we couldn't get it to mesh up. we just couldn't get it to line up no matter what. i guess i just got a...

    Do the pads have small nipples on the outside? I was dealing with uneven wear on my pads & it was due to those nipples. the only reason i even caught it was that the caliper didn't want to go back on. i had to take a grinder to the center nipple & take it off to get everything back to par for...

    fwiw, before the blower, i spun mine to 6400 on all stock stuff on a few different occasions, trying to take advantage of the cams. i was shifting at 6200 most of the time though

    there are several people running 400rwhp wit htheirs & no problems. it all depends on how you drive really. i ran mine for a while with 423 & didn't have any issues with it. i switched tranny's & just went ahead & put a better clutch in for the heck of it, since it was already out

    Are 4.10's too big for a supercharger, or turbo?

    Are 4.10's too big for a supercharger, or turbo?

    quad shocks are long gone, & has been that way for about 2 years. for my upper control arms i'm using steeda hardcore adjustables with rod end bushings & i put solid spherical bushings in on the housing end. 100% better than my other control arms with poly bushings. where my car is launching so...
