    need recommendation on O/R H or X pipe

    thanks for all the input! yesterday I removed the H pipe and took it to the shop to have the hole welded. They did a pretty good job with it, but... Today the wife took off work so we went to check out CJ Pony Parts. Pretty cool shop... I ended up buying a BBK O/R X pipe, like pictured...

    High RPM squeal? *track video*

    I went to the track yesterday and my wife taped the runs. When I played the tape back I was suprised to hear a loud metalic squeal. It didn't do it all the time, but I did notice it during a couple of the burnouts, rasing rpm's prior to launch and coming down from first to second shift. It might...

    with those poly mounts: did you have to cut off the little "extra" welded tab when mounting them to the frame? I noticed that once I put mine in, the "extra" tab didn't fit in any of the slots and actually created a gap between the motor mount and k-member plate. Maybe it's just the K-member

    need recommendation on O/R H or X pipe

    went to the strip today and somehow managed to rip off the exhaust hanger for the trans mount. As the exhaust hanger came off it took the section of pipe with it, so now i have a 1 1/2" x 1/4" hole in the pipe were the weld was. It's currently a O/R H pipe. I guess it's for shorty headers cause...

    Tremec TKO 500 Question

    tag should be on the passenger side. you can see it while installed but you may need to jack the car up. You'd be looking for a part number that begins with "TCET". TCET4615 is for Ford TKO500 10 spline input shaft. here's a link: tremec

    Well Toto, Kansas sucks (weather, hail damage, body repair)

    Thanks all! I know it got some dust particles in it during the painting process (I knew I should have tacked it with the cloth after the degreaser) There is one spot on the hood that is really bothering me though. While I was removing the lights, the body guy noticed a couple pits on the...

    Vaccum, EGR, EGR vac reglator and vac reserve

    yep, that was the diagram. Do you have any ideas on the Vac regulator? Is it suppose to let air in thru the slotted cap in the top (a bypass)? Thanks again!

    Diagram courtesy of Tmoss & Stang&2birds not sure if this diagram is gonna show but - I'm been having some issues lately with my vacuum reading seeming a little low and reduced fuel mileage. I finally got my hands on a vacuum tester. When I got to the main vac line that goes to the EGR vac...

    Well Toto, Kansas sucks (weather, hail damage, body repair)

    I wouldn't mind seeing a couple examples of that. Either that kind of photo editing can't be done with Corel Paint shop Pro or I'm just not smart enough to figure it out. Oh well.
