heh, okay now I KNOW this has been covered before, but not sure if it's been sucessfully done? I was thinking of fabing up a simple log manifold for each side, and hanging a OEM hairdryer off of each manifold. and just for chits and giggels, and to more complicate things lol how about a...

So I was over a friend of mines house, droping of some plates i made for his trailer, and he has a 76 Vega with a GN 3.8 in it. I was BSin with him about my Sy and his GN mutt and got on the subject of computers and odd/even firing and how the GN is oddfire and the problems we would have with...

Okay, pulled the A/C, cooling system, and everything off of the front of my motor, in prep to remove the whole thing this week. Well was looking at what all could go to free up space, and started to think. Has anyone put a radiator up in the core support where the ac condensor went? I found a...

:lol: will 2.08 valves fit in vortech heads? i sure hope so cuz the valves are free. god i love this motor. i swear i'll have more into machine work than into the motor :rotf:

so would i be unrealistic to be shooting for 550-600 AWHP on a stock crank? I'm having it cut 10 under on the rods to improve fillet, and 20 on the mains, and cryo'd. think it'll hold with 4 bolts and a 1/2 fill of hard block? How about manifolds? i'm going to open them up as much as possible...

starting to build/gather parts for my new motor, and i'm gaining more and more respect for the 4.3 every day! Block/crank. Free "just get it out of my garage!" although i think the crank is scrap, hell it was still free and the block is in excelent shape! ARP head studs: 50 bucks. used for...

what would a 55k mile long block/trans be worth? I'd be keeping the intake/exhaust manifolds, sensors and oil pan etc off of the motor to install on the new one, but the trans would be complete from converter to output shaft. the motor runs exceptionally well, really the only miles this thing...

alright, so i put together an alky system, but had problems with the nozzle mounting. from what i've read/seen all over the internet your to sandwich the IC between the nozzle and the coupling it screws into? couldn't see this working too well. soo... I've kinda devised a soloution for this...

Okay, I've been searching for several days, and decided i need to ask. My goal IS a 10 second truck. i'm not going for a world record, but i run with the big boys here and a slow car is mid 11's, and i'd like to keep up ;) I'd like to start motor work soon, and have it back up and...

http://autospeed.drive.com.au/cms/article.html?&A=0090 Thats the air to water site, but if you go to the bottom the "back to page 1" link takes you to the air to air site. lots of good information. FYI straight water is better than water/antifreeze... as little as 23% antifreeze will hurt the...

well at least thats what it will say on the Xb board when he gets home! :rotf: you couldn't miss it, it's seriously hunter orange with a silver hood and roof, and even though the dip chit was 3 cars behind me my rearview mirror was vibrating from his stereo, jack ass. anyways, i pull into the...

so is 180 degrees a high IAT? i logged another 0 to 90 run yesterday after some cruising around, and at the begining of the run iat's were at 120ish, and at the end they peak 179 deg. think this is the reason for my knock? O2 reads good now at 950 volts :dunno: but it's still pulling 14-16* KR...

Okay, I'm doing a larger turbo and alky in the next month or so, and my fuel system next week. i'm going to retain the air/water setup on my truck. i've searched the living crap outta this site and had a lot of questions answered, ideas spawned, and advice taken, but also created several more...

thats what i asked the idiot who just wouldn't let off trying to get me to light the tires up this weekend. He was like "Yeah those are the ones that came with V8's right?" even after I explained what it was to him he still was like come on its gotta be do some sorta burn out for us! what an...

Okay, well last thursday i took the exhaust off, all of it, cat and all. put a pipe from the down pipe to the axle and put a turn down before the axle for now, not to hot on the sound gonna get some sort of muffler on it and duals out the back. anyways, the reason i brought that up in this...

so is it normal for this to record less than 2 seconds of a 0 to 100 run? its kinda hard to tune this POS 2 seconds at a time. :rant:

well first off, this has been the shittiest week of my life. computer's been on the fritz, wont read CD's for some reason, working my azz off, hurt my back, and to top it all off my jeep was stolen last night. I had left it at work for the last week cuz of a broken front drive shaft, was gonna...
