    T5 or T5Z? Whats the 1st gear ratio benefit?

    I was looking into a T5 swap for my 67, so I figured Id ask the people who deal with them all the time. Is there a reason why I should go with a T5 with the 3.35 first gear, or the T5Z with the 2.95. I have 3.55 gears currently, but may upgrade to 4.11 with either 5 speed. My car has about...

    gearing for the t5

    Thats becuase you will find the T5 with a 3.35 first gear, or 2.95 with the z spec tranny. If you have an 8" rear, you could run 3.55 rear gear for best road manners and economy. With the 3.35 first, it seems 3.80s would be better for the strip, and 4.11 for 2.95 first gear trans. If its a...

    Rebuilding my 289

    I have this setup on my 289 with a 750 carb instead. I would seriously recommend using a 351W block instead of the 289. I have like $6500 in the motor, with .200 dome forged pistons and stock rods and stuff, and its strong up top, but not much torque for that seat of the pants thrill. If I...

    28oz. vs. 50oz. Crankshaft and Balancing Questions?

    1. 50oz parts are cheaper and more plentiful if you need something in the future. 2.They will need the 8 rods and 8 pistons to balance correctly. 3.Only if it wasnt finished honed, which it should be. I only wonder why you arent using a forged crank if you use the forged rods and pistons...

    What is my timeslip trying to tell me?!

    Yes i have dropped my guesstimate and im going to get it dynoed. I am also going to try and tune it while there. My high 12 sec goal might be reachable w/o nitrous, which was my initial plan. Now id like to do it motor only. Ill have to see whats up with it on the dyno. Thanks for the...

    What is my timeslip trying to tell me?!

    I was running 26.5x10 ET Streets on 15x7 rims. I have replacement 4 leaf springs with KYB shocks and those cheap yellow traction bars with a bolt in place of the rubber snubber. I have about a 1/2" gap between the spring eye and the bolt head. Only real problem is the stupid clunking noise on...

    What is my timeslip trying to tell me?!

    yeah, i think you are right. Maybe i have 330-350 hp with little torque. It also isnt tuned right because i had a substaintial misfire above 5K and i dont know why. I think im gonna have it pro tuned by the dyno guys.

    Whats the servo on my C4 for?

    Im wondering why there is an upgrade aluminum from TCI for my C4. Does it offer something noticeable for the trans? Is it worth the $85? Thanks

    New Electric fan :) low voltage :(

    I did the flex to electric swap using a relay and temp controlled switch. If your car hit 260 with the flex, you have different problems like a bad radiator, or stuck closed tstat, or maybe a pure eg coolant mix. After I put mine on, normal flex fan temps went from 160 up to 180. The fan was...

    Car still stalling when put in gear?

    What is your torque converter rated stall RPM? I had this problem with my 289 after I put in a big cam. At an 850 rpm, it would stall when going into gear. After I put in a TCI Break-a-way rated a 2500rpm stall, it worked like normal.
