    VT Stroker Pictures!

    Numbers I'm looking for at least 625rwhp/700rwtq....I don't see either being a problem considering MICool just made 663rwhp with a VT 302ci stroker and 17psi through a power robbing supercharger :) I'd like to keep it under 15psi - shouldn't be a problem with Jerry doing the tune come...

    VT Stroker Pictures!

    Well I only snapped a few pictures before I headed over to the machine shop, but I promise many more will follow :) For those interested, there are pictures of the rods, pistons and a few good shots of the Fox Lake / VT Stage II heads. As always : http://www.snkypete.com...

    Thanks guys....actually the article is kinda funny....some of the "quotes" I'm not quite sure where he got them from hahaha. But is it very cool and one hell of an honor...all I have ever wanted was a magazine article (like most of us) and 5 years ago I was standing in my garage saying I was...

    Turbo Time!

    12psi with a turbo on a stock block will last for about one pass. Stay at 8psi or lower if you want it to live. Companies that have kits : Turbolocity PTK HP Performance Companies making kits : Cobra Killer Induction Concepts And a few others that have been threatening to make a...

    Synthetic Oil Question

    Exactly - one of the myths about synthetics that really needs to go away. Why I don't recommend people with high mileage converting - especially on a daily driver that is not more of a hobby vehicle. I understand why you choose to change the oil....but again, the entire point was not to tell...

    Synthetic Oil Question

    Michael, It's actually a common misconception that high mileage will cause leaks if converted to syntethics. The leaks are caused by the synthetics actually cleaning away the sludge from the inside of the motor that has built up over time. This sludge actually prevents the dino oil from...

    Synthetic Oil Question

    And that is fine - again no one was telling anyone they couldn't do anything - merely correcting inaccurate information. Why would anyone want to throw away money for no reason? I will again bring up brakes - why not change your brake pads for no reason then? Doesn't make it right, and is...

    Synthetic Oil Question

    If you actually bothered to read my post I addressed the cost of getting oil analyzed - I even showed the variance between analysis and changing - I just did it again. If you would rather spend the $30-50 every three months, more power to you....that's great if you don't want to get your oil...

    Synthetic Oil Question

    I guess it all depends on the people you are talking about. Most people I know would never go to an oil change facility...I guess it depends on who you are as a person. However I would guess that most that have commented on this thread change their own oil - part of owning a vehicle for ME is...

    Synthetic Oil Question

    No, basically you take a sample and send it out to a certified lab. Amsoil will do it, so will Blackstone - http://www.blackstone-labs.com You don't analyze the filter, you send a small 4oz vial off. Blackstone provides the kit for free, analysis is $20.00. Amsoil is a little cheaper...
