    Will low voltage from the alt make the CHECK ENGINE light come on?

    I have noticed my check engine light is coming on sometimes, but my PMS is not throwing any codes. I have also noticed at idle that my lights on my gauges flicker a little. Would the check engine light come on if my alt was going bad? Gary

    In case you were curious. I weighed my stock heads vs my new FRPP Y303 heads.

    I was curious about the weight difference, so I pulled out the old bathroom scale. Stock heads weighed in at 53.5 lbs each. FRPP Y303 heads weighed in at 25 lbs dead on. So the weight savings after install is 56 lbs of sprung weight. That is pretty significant, isnt it? Gary

    A plea to those with PBR twin piston calipers and a digital camera...

    Let me clear up a little confusion on the PBR caliper swap and stock brake lines.

    I keep reading posts that say you cant use the stock lines from a 1994-1995 GT. Well, this is only true if you dont have a dremel or a grinder. You WILL however, need the PBR specific banjo bolt 1) The driver side will bolt right up, no modification at all. 2) All you have to do to the...
