    Clutch Break In

    Finally, I got the car running today. Put about 10 miles or so on it. Seems to be running fine, holding a steady 50lbs of oil pressure. Front jet needs to be backed down to a 72 I think, it hesitates for a sec pulling off from a stop. How long should I drive it "conservatively" with a brand...

    help me pick a cam

    People here are not fans of the FPR cams but nevertheless they are extremely popular. I have a F303 with a fairly stock motor but Im carb'd. I would think youd be fine with the same, or at least a E or B... BTW, check out The Tube for vids. There are literally tons. Just type in what type of...

    Thermo Plugs Arent Working

    Whats the diff between the thermo port and the crossover tube port? Theres only one hole on each head in the bottom outside corner on mine. The plugs I bought are the TF 5/8-11's but they definately dont thread in. Just tried an old spark plug and that seems spot on but they are a little...

    What mild cam ?

    Everything works in conjunction with one another. For those saying dont change this or that, but change this, that makes absolutely no sense. Hmm, dont change the cam or heads, but put a bigger TB on lmao. "Technically" if youre going to do anything to help with airflow, it should be...

    Clutch Problem

    Let me try & explain a little better, the clutch pedal feels as if theres no cable at all on it (but the cable is on it because I checked). Its as though the pedal is just mounted with nothing attached & its floppy. When Im under the car I can move the fork with my hand about an inch or so...

    Clutch Problem

    Ok I got up this morning and planned on doing what Sleeper told me to regarding tightening the balancer down. I go to put the car in gear and the clutch pedal is like a limp dick, no pressure whatsoever. I checked the quadrant inside and then moved under the car & pulled off the shield where...

    EFI to CARB. Any input welcome

    This has been tested by many mags over the years; taking a stock EFI motor and putting an intake/carb on it to see the differences. I have yet to see one that did not produce more power with a carb. FWIW carbs are what all Fox guys run around here. Cheaper, easier to work on, & really cleans...

    General Help

    Thanks Sleeper. Its got a new clutch too. Having never been run (clutch), sticking it in gear shouldnt mess anything up right?? Also, what starter should go on this motor?? I picked one up for an '86 & it looked just like the old one. Before I put it on today I saw a sticker that said "Highly...

    Ate a Boxter S for lunch

    Boxster S's aren't that impressive in a straight line, they are 14 sec cars. In the twistie's is where they shine. ;) Nonetheless, nice kill! Always nice to put a cocky exotic driver in his place... Jon
