    Team Z motorsports rear suspension stuff worth it for the street?

    I am using UPR pro series control arms. Not Team Z (Good from what I hear). For the drag strip they are great. However having a solid bushing design, the pivot points are needed for hard acceleration on sloped on ramps. IMOA this is where my solid bushings are limited. I have a slanted driveway...

    Cooling system woes.....

    Not sure size of fitting. You can pick up a aftermaket gauge with fittings around $15 bucks. The two places you can put the guage is in the water neck bleeder bolt. (if it wasnt stripped). The only thing is that location would not read until thermastat opened. The other place is the temperature...

    Cooling system woes.....

    I had a similair problem. It took me a good hour or 2 to bleed air out. I bought a radiator cap with lever release and burped air out with bleeder bolt on top of new waterneck housing. Check to see if your over flow tank is not cracked and filled to capacity. When stat opens it will suck in...

    Are ceramic pads and slotted rotors worth the extra coin

    Time to do brakes. Do you get better stopping power. Less brake fade. Worth the money? Car is daily driver and stock.

    my cobra runs too hot?

    I would go to the local autoparts store and purchase a mechanical temp guage. Run it in the car for about a week. There about 15-20 bucks. Also when the car reaches operating tempature reach down (Be careful hot) feel the bottom of the radiator. If it is cold and the top of the radiator is hot...
