Been trying to get info on what all I need to upgrade the lines and rails but no luck. I know I can get rails with adapters to fit the stock lines. But is that really gonna do any good? I know I can get AN fittings with braided line. But how do I connect to the tank lines/fuel filter...

I recently put in a Fordstrokers 363 in my car. My old 5.0 was from Ford Racing; one of their XB3 packages, GT-40 internals, 9.0 compression, X-11 heads, B - Cam. It was ran with a supercharger for a number of years. I suspected that there was something wrong with it, something just wasn't...

I just purchased an Abaco 97mm DBX and a Zeitronix ZT-2 WB. I got the Abaco mostly because of the size to match my boostmaster pipe (thinking that my current 75mm bullet might be a restriction) and the ZT-2 to monitor A/F, datalog RPM, TPS, MAF voltage and boost. Then I got to thinking, maybe...

I've got a line on a shaft with roller bearings and steel bearing retainer. I know the 10 spline shaft is 1 1/16 and the 26 spline is 1 1/8 but not sure if all the additional parts are size specific. Can the parts from a 10 spline input shaft be used when upgrading to a 26 spline shaft? TIA, Dan

Hi all, trying to troubleshoot a problem with my car. I'm currently deployed to Iraq and left the car with my wife to look after. She IM'd me yesterday saying that the car won't start. After some long distance patience and question I found out the car doesn't even crank. Previously... she...

I went to the track yesterday and my wife taped the runs. When I played the tape back I was suprised to hear a loud metalic squeal. It didn't do it all the time, but I did notice it during a couple of the burnouts, rasing rpm's prior to launch and coming down from first to second shift. It might...

went to the strip today and somehow managed to rip off the exhaust hanger for the trans mount. As the exhaust hanger came off it took the section of pipe with it, so now i have a 1 1/2" x 1/4" hole in the pipe were the weld was. It's currently a O/R H pipe. I guess it's for shorty headers cause...

Diagram courtesy of Tmoss & Stang&2birds not sure if this diagram is gonna show but - I'm been having some issues lately with my vacuum reading seeming a little low and reduced fuel mileage. I finally got my hands on a vacuum tester. When I got to the main vac line that goes to the EGR vac...

Came out to Kansas in early April for training prior to deployment. As if I wasn't having enough trouble with the car. Hail storm back in early June got me pretty good. Had full coverage on the car and insurance came through but for a small amount. They have a new body man at the craft shop on...

I'm looking for a clutch. Done some searches and most say that the clutch is 10.5. Most places I've looked at show a 10.4 or 10.5. Is there any physical difference or are they one in the same? Bought the car with the Tremec already in there but I'm pretty sure it's a 26 spline. I was looking at...

Wanted to restab the dizzy cause the edge of the TFI is real close to the water neck. I have done a couple searches on timing but I'm still confused. I know the base timing is 10* BTDC and the rotor rotates counter-clockwise. I set the timing to 10* BTDC prior to getting the car tuned last...

went to the track this morning to try out the new V2 SQ trim. Made a couple passes that were not that good. Best pass was 12.1. Been having some issues with my foot not being able to push the pedal all the way to the floor cause it catches on the carpet. Well I trimmed the carpet back a bit. Low...

with the higer temps my car is running hotter. I won't let it get any higher than 210* before i shut down the a/c. Has shroud, clutch fan and wind deflector intact (but not in the best condition). Recently replaced the t-stadt with an unbalanced 180* (working properly). I've flushed the system...

hey all, Been having some trouble since I relocated out to Kansas from PA. First of all the car ran great on the 1150 mile trip out to Kansas and ran great before hand. Since getting here I've had to replace the throttle body cause the throttle shaft broke. I replaced the dryer connection to...

Was thinking of making a trip out there from Manhattan if I get out of work early enough. I've only got the street tires but what the hell. I want to see if the new boostmaster pipe has given me anything extra.

Should have known something was bound to happen. Just made the 1100+ mile trip out to Kansas. I'm gonna be here for several months cause I have to get some training prior to deploying to Iraq. Everything went fine on the road (one fillup I got 26.3 MPG), but once I got here I noticed that my...

figured I could load all my track gear (slicks, jack, tools) on the trailer and not have to mess up the interior or trunk. The guys that trailer their car to the track get mad enough when a street car beats them, how do you think they'd feel if the car that towed the trailer beats them? :rlaugh:

Is it me or does the front wheel appear to come off the ground? This is my second time to the track ever and I'm hooked :D I had seen a pic from the previous owner where the left wheel was off the ground (frame twist?) but it appeared that the right was planted. He launched at 4K on the...

Not sure if this has already been posted but through my searches of the site I haven't come across anything like it. I was lookin on EBAY to find a black 20 tooth speedo gear and came across this calculator. http://www.sccoa.com/faq/speedgr.html Not sure on how accurate but it seems to...
