    Blown 331 Stroker(AFR 185's or 205's)????

    I haven't been on here in a while, but this thread caught my eye, don't go any less than the 205's, I made decent power with my 185's but the time and effort I've got in the custom pushrods and the tuning and I'm not really happy with my power. Even the guys at AFR said the 185's is all you...

    stock fan, how many cfms?

    Does anyone know how many cfm's the stock clutch fan pulls? I found a 2500cfm electric fan that I think will work with my 12 rib procharger setup, But I want to be sure it's enough.

    tremec tko 500 @ longtube question

    No the driveshaft doesn't need to be shortened, but you have to change the yoke at the trans, it has differant splines. The best way to put the longtubes on when you install the motor( I can speak for BBK's) is to get the motor over in the car and close to mounting and put the pass. side header...

    Turbo off farm equipment??

    It's in the latest issue of Mucle Mustangs and Fast Fords, the guy took a 5.4 triton motor and a turbo off of a John Deere tractor, the HP wasn't too impressive but, I guess it was pretty neat.

    GT taillights

    I'm pretty sure you can't remove it, you have to tape up the lens and and cut out the part you want to paint

    Comp Cams XE270HR.......

    I also run this cam with the 114 lobe separation, It is a 3k and above cam, after I installed my procharger it breaks the tires loose almost everytime at 3k, it sounds good at idle too. If youre going n/a then decide if you want a lower rpm cam; if going with blower or nitrous then do it. I...

    car wont run unless i keep giving it gas

    Also check for vaccuum leaks that will have the same effect. When I installed my new motor I had a vac leak and it wouldnt start or run unless I gave it some gas and it ended up being a vac line that I didn't hook up.

    AFR heads, intake/cam?

    I run the 165's with and Edlebrock Performer, and a Comp Cams XE270hr14 which Comp Cams recommended for my combo. I was planning for a blower down the road, it has worked well both ways, my powerband kicks in at about 3k and with the procharger it's pretty wicked, kinda pulls up to 3k and then...

    Power steering whine?

    I found one product that fixed the whine on my two GT's, Lucas power steering additive, it definetly worked for me. It's worth a try.

    T-5 and Nitrous?

    Won't take it, 3rd gear is junk in a t5, went through 3 T5's before I wised up, 3rd every time.

    Best way to cool car? Electric fan or Rad?

    Looks like I have all kinds of options now, thanks for the replys. I think the 31x19 deal sounds like the way to go.

    need traction

    I second that I am in the process of losing the bbk lowering springs, and going with the drag launch kit. I have terrible traction issues with the supercharger, as of now I just have the rear springs installed and they definatly squat in the rear. I will need a spring compressor to install the...

    Best way to cool car? Electric fan or Rad?

    Alright sound good to me. I just called jegs and they said that the $289 radiator is a direct replacement and the $179 may have to do some modifications, so you're saying that all you did is bent the top 2 brackets, right?

    Best way to cool car? Electric fan or Rad?

    Was there any "fitment" issues? I'm leaning towards the jegs setup.

    Best way to cool car? Electric fan or Rad?

    Yea I was just looking at the jegs and summit books and they both offer an aluminum radiator, and was wondering what the actual differances could be between them and a fluidyne..ect.You know that they did their research and desigined it accordingly. I would rather pay $289, instead of $379, in...

    Best way to cool car? Electric fan or Rad?

    I think I'll go with the aluminum radiator first, they aren't to cheap, and then the electric fan. When I run it through the first four gears it heats up to about 206 average. I think I can make it through the winter with the colder temps (mostly 30's and 40's) but by spring I guess I'll have to...

    Best way to cool car? Electric fan or Rad?

    After my supercharger install my intercooler blocks my air to the radiator and I run on a 70 degree day at about 200 where before I was about 184. If I run it hard it will go up to 206-210, would an electric fan do me or do I need a bigger radiator than stock?

    one run at the strip and a good holding clutch and it will go. I'd save up for a tremec.
