    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...

    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

    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...

    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...

    topend noise

    I have a ticking coming from the rear of my drivers side head/valve cover. It does it on start up and doesn't go away. I bought the car already built (306c.i. forged Scat, 9.5:1 cr, worked GT40P heads, 1.7rr, and supposedly a custom cam that I don't have specs for, as far as internals). I'm...

    couple of mild street motor ?s

    I thought I had posted this the other night, but it's not showing up in my threads. I've been debating on what route to go with on my motor for my notch. It will be a 95% street, 5% strip time car, so I want it to be very street friendly. Part of that is that I would like to get atleast...

    What heads?

    I was told my car had GT40P heads on it when I bought it a while ago. I decided to check it out a bit more, but don't recognize the casting marks. It looks like either "l7" or "I7", but that's all I see. Any ideas? I'm guessing they're E7s, but have never heard of that casting mark.

    new guy

    Sorta anyway. I joined last year when I was looking at getting a '99-'04, but never did. I bought an '89 LX last week though. It started out as a Georgia State Police car. It's got some stuff done already. All I plan on doing is painting it, replacing some worn out parts, and doing a 5 lug...
