    anyone ever looked into stuffing a new Triton V10 truck motor in a classic? I wonder if it will fit width wise. It may have to go into something other than a mustang. What does everyone think?

    Griggs disc brake conversion?

    I was just at Road Atlanta and talked to all of the brake manufacturers (SSBC, Baer, Wilwood) and although they have great products I was not happy with the price.

    A4LD rebuild?

    I am looking to put a turbo 2.3 in my ranger. It currently has a 3.0 6cyl with the A4LD transmission. My question is can I beef up this tranny to withstand the motor.

    EGR block off plate?

    Max Motorsports brake upgrade?

    Is anyone using this brake upgrade kit? I am talking about the one that has the hoses, pads and caliper sleeves. I am wondering if it is worth the money and if it improves the braking enough to get by until I can do a set of Baer Claws. Also do the powerstop rotors gain you anything. Thanks.

    I have an 87 turbocoupe in good condition except the motor needs an oil pump. My mechanic says it would cost to much to fix vs what the car is worth.
