    HELP! Minor Tire Emergency!

    I test fitted them last night and of course they hit, but not too too bad. The difference between the 11.5 and the 13.5 is only about 3/4" in reality. Tire sizes are weird like that. I'll keep you all posted.

    HELP! Minor Tire Emergency!

    Well i got my rear 15x10 draglites (6.5 b.s.) in today, along with my new tires. I ordered 28x11.5x15 Hoosier Quick Time Pro's and i received 28x13.5x15 instead. They are nice tires, and i would love to put that size on, but is it possible to fit? I already have eliminated the quad shocks...

    Cleaing weld draglites?

    If the oxidation won't come off with elbow grease and polish, try wet-sanding with 2000 grit sandpaper.

    How much is a Tremec 3550 worth

    Getting my 3550 rebuilt soon for $350. Thats breaking it down, cleaning it, and doing a rebuilt using Tremec parts. Beware of the rebuild kits for tremecs made by other companies. They are not the same! I'd say that trans, with the grinding 3rd is worth no more than $500. Basically $800-850...

    Help me create the "Surging Idle Checklist"

    My 89 LX idles right at 900-1000 steady on a cold start.....closed loop. As soon as it hits operating temperature it starts bouncing 700-900 rpm. From there the idle sort of "bucks". Soon it becomes such a "buck" that it stalls the car. I have an E-303 cam and i know someone mentioned that...

    Longer Wheel Studs Needed?

    I lined up my new 15x3.5 Weld Draglites today on the front and i notice they fit fine, but the stock wheel studs are too short. Is this normal? Anyone else with this issue? By the way, the rotors i bought came with these studs in them. They fit ponies and turbines fine, but not the new Welds.

    coil overs & K-Member should I buy???? HELP

    Do NOT buy QA1. The fit is bad. Moves your wheels up 1 inch, and then you can't steer the car without the wheels hitting the fender. Very disappointed in the Tech Support as well. -John
