    FS - 4V goodies (trade for sbf parts)

    As of now this is just a feeler. My wife recently ran my truck hot and blew an H/G and fried some rings, so I'm putting a hold on my 4v fox project, since I can't afford to finish it anytime soon. As far as what I have is a full '93 MK VIII teksid motor. I stripped the motor down to the...

    Cam specs question

    I have a cam laying around that my cousin gave me. I was debating tossing in it, since I'm going to replace my timing cover gaskets and chain and put some new valve covers on. I've ID'd the cam as an Ultradyne 276/284HR12. Here are the specs I've found. Duration - intake 276, exhaust 284...

    smoke in engine bay/vacuum hose

    I have two different issues. The car recently started smoking in the engine bay. Smoke can be hard to track sometimes, but from what I can tell it seems to be coming from the intake area between the heads. My first thought was valve cover, so I pulled the upper intake and didn't see any...

    Top end noise

    Header gaskets. Sounds just like topend noise. That was my problem. Had my valve covers off twice before checking them.

    Paint and Body Guys: Are these worthless?

    Never see a gun like either. Biggest problem is you're missing the caps. It also looks like you're missing nozzles and needles too. If you want a decent entry level gun look at the Finex FX HVLP series.

    So I googled hoodscoop, interesting find..

    Take that picnic table off the rear and put a solid color on it and I'd drive it. I love 240SX though, plus I came from a Nissan. It's probably a work in progress. And yes, that's an intercooler.

    ac compressor plug

    When I bought my car it had been stripped for drag (no a/c, no smog, etc.). I daily drive it now and bought all the stuff to put a/c back on. Problem is I can't find the plug that goes to the compressor harness. I found one similar to it, but both are female plugs. Can somebody take a...

    cam with 1.72 RR

    That is why I said better safe than sorry. Meaning if it had stock valve reliefs what kind of lift would I be safe running. And no I don't have the specs of the current cam. It went through another person after the owner that built it and some of the info was lost. I do know it has 1.72RR as...

    I'm asking what kind of cam lift I can safely run without slapping the valves with the top of the piston.

    rearend swap/ back spacing questino

    I thought you had to run sn95 axles to clear the brake caliper? I have a 99-04 rear under mine now and am about to get some axles to swap my old rear end back in with the PBR brakes.

    cam with 1.72 RR

    I bought my car with the motor work already done. I'm not too fond of the cam that's in it though, as it likes to rev higher than I do. I was wondering what kind of lift I can get by with using the 1.72 RR. The motor has Scat forged 306 pistons in it at 9.5:1 cr. Not sure on the specific of...

    Aluminum Hood 2" cowl Anybody run one?

    How much is it? I love aluminum hoods. Fit better and more rigid that fiberglass, but weigh less than steel.

    exhaust

    I'm going to have to do something with my exhaust, as the way it is drags all the time and is routed wrong. I'm debating between keeping my FRPP stainless headers and throwing on a stainless 2.5" X pipe, or throwing on some 3" long tubes and 3" h-pipe. I know I will pick up torque with the...
