    Clutch selection

    My stock clutch/flywheel had well over 300 runs on it, and over 35k street miles... at the time the car made 292tq at the wheels... probably at or over 300 at the track (ice, short-belt) on dot's launching at 5000+rpm and scratching the dot's on every shift. (dot, as in, a slick with a few...

    Headers for Stock 5.0

    In that case, I'm sure the stock logs will do you well... seems odd tho... with the 2.5" off road exhaust and straight through mufflers bolted to them.

    Headers for Stock 5.0

    What are you trying to do? 1/4 mile ET? or? Debate about running around under 3000rpm with a daily commuter? Not sure where you are readin, or what the parameters/definitions of "better" are, but it sounds like the kind of thing "seat of the pants warriors" would regurgitate to justify why they...

    What are OEM pony wheels worth?

    Just need to wait for the right buyer. If I were looking for ponies, for a good set, I'd be willing to spend more than a new set of Welds...

    MT ET street R bias

    Thanks for the clarification. Very happy with the s/s on the street, but, I don't make a lot of power, and what power I do make isn't down low in the rpm range... I can go flat to the floor in 1st (2.95) and even with the 4.56's it'll boogie... wiggles a bit but doesn't spin. Had BFG dr's...

    MT ET street R bias

    MT told you a radial would be better than a bias... or the radial R would be better than the radial s/s? I find it very odd that MT would tell you a radial would provide a stick car better hooking power than the bias, when the bias is designed specifically for clutch cars... The Bias R can be...

    Transmission grenaded at 80 mph!!!

    Mmmm... maybe call and talk to Tony, shows they have a new HD T5 in stock... since they do trans rebuilds/modifications I'm sure he can swap out the shaft for an SN car. New Tremec T5 ...

    Transmission grenaded at 80 mph!!!

    Goodness they are proud of that! At that price, I think I'd save $200 and call Tony at Astro and order the 425tq T5... or... save up another $200 and wait on the 575tq T5 to be on the shelf.

    MT ET street R bias

    I have the MT ET Street R bias and have run them on the street at 26psi. No issues whatsoever... A5 trans, 4.56 gear bla bla... Having said that, I'm 50yrs old and my hot-dogging days are long behind me... So, as far as driving like a law abiding citizen, and taking corners in the same manner as...

    92 gt bolt on horsepower to the wheels?

    if the dyno is software/hardware/sensors are setup correctly and functioning, it will spit out density altitude corrected numbers. When you see these same cars at the track geared similarly and on slicks and skinnies with similar modifications running anywhere from 12.6's to 13.5's it tells the...

    92 gt bolt on horsepower to the wheels?

    It's very hard to guess... back in the day, when these cars had 40k or less miles, that combo with an off-road H/X would put down 240hp/300tq on the high end of the spectrum... they usually had larger than stock fuel pump and a fair number of passes at the track dialing in fuel...

    Waterless car washing

    Original 26 year old 58k miles paint... never seen a buffer... soapy water washed, chamois'd and hand waxed. Waterless/dry wash goes against everything I understand regarding suspending/lifting dirt off the paint...

Feel bad for you guys, spent the...

    Cobra intake finally found and installed

    Highly recommend Rob Wetzel, Forced Induction Tuning... "may" have to leave it a few days, don't show up with a ProM... and it will not be cheap, but, it will be done right.

    Cobra intake finally found and installed

    Well... I too would change out the MAM and injectors (and, it would make sense to do the TB at the same time, but... $$$)... and, as things go, you'll need to address the fuel pump too. In my experience, once you get around 230hp at the wheels the stock pump is done. As far as the MAM goes...

    Fox Na 306 E7te Heads 368hp/363tq

    @RangerJoe , plotting, no, headed that direction after today. $1450 for a new trailer! Heck yes. Folks think they are made of gold around here... cannot touch a "decent" used one for less than $2K. New they are real handy $4K... grr, just don't want to put that coin into a 3-4 times a year...
