    Yup, my new track heat heads don't have the holes, but I had it removed before that anyway.

    What's the REAL Functionality of the PCV VALVE?

    An EGR valve recirculates exhaust gases, not a PCV valve. I had the same assumption as you, vristang, that it was in place in case of backfires. Hopefully somebody else will shed some light on this.

    If you street race in Virginia you may lose your car if caught!

    You have a valid point, and in many cases I would agree with you. I have always disliked eminent domain. However, I think that when it comes to street racing the confiscation of property is the harshest deterrent the government has. I don't street race because it is stupid and dangerous. But...

    If you street race in Virginia you may lose your car if caught!

    IDIOTS "there's not many people on the road then" Well, there are still some innocent people on the roads you could've killed. They deserve to have that guy from the V-Dub commercials smash their cars. I think many states will take your car for street racing. I'm pretty sure they do in my...

    Retard/Advance TFS stage 1 cam ??'s

    Although you probably already know this, keep in mind that if your p/v clearance is tight advancing will make it worse. I was looking at the TF stage 2 with my engine build, but TF said I might have to retard it if p/v was too close. Just something to think about.

    SHould i ditch the fog lights

    I'd get rid of other stuff first, such as the armrest. I'm a sucker for foglights though, so that's just me.

    dyno results

    That's a pretty large cam for that setup, what does the powerband look like and where is the peak hp and torque?

    Retard/Advance TFS stage 1 cam ??'s

    I think advancing moves the powerband down, but please double-check that. We can't really say what's better, because that depends on your engine and your car's use. Personally, I like a low powerband since my car is mainly street driven. Post the engine specs and the car specs and you'll be...

    probably a stupid question

    lol, why isn't anybody else helping? I'm rebuilding my engine right now, so I can't look at it and I don't have my reference book with me. Hopefully another member can help you with this issue. Good luck Derek!

    FOGLIGHTS WORKED OVER :)

    Don't make my mistake of forgetting to turn your headlights on at night. Mine are so bright that the headlights don't make much difference when driving around town (highway is a different story). I forgot once and got pulled over, but the cop understood and told me not to forget again.

    probably a stupid question

    Regulate the flow of exhaust gases into the incoming air. At WOT, no exhaust gases are recirculated. I'm not sure what tube you are asking about, on Fox bodies the exhaust gas is routed through the intake manifold. I am sure of that now. I can't remember off the top of my head what the egr...

    probably a stupid question

    I could be completely wrong, but I believe the egr gasses are internally plumbed through the intake. Hopefully somebody will confirm or correct me.

    Odometer, speedo, trip doesn't work...suggestions on what to check?

    Both my gears look fine, but my speedo doesn't work. So if it's not you're gear maybe we have the same problem. I was gonna check my speedo cable, you might give that a look.

    where can i get center caps???

    I'm in the same boat. I have 17" Rial rims that I've never seen on any other car and I love em, but two of the caps are broke. The caps actually look identical to the ones on new Impalas, but I'll obviously not putting a bowtie emblem on my car! Good luck man.

    Yes, it's fuzzy. If it bugs you, go have sex with nothing.
