    Excessive coolant pressure?

    Excessive coolant pressure?

    That makes good sense. Let me try the cap first. If its not the cap it should be either the intake gaskets or the head gaskets I suspect? This problem is starting to tick me off.

    Excessive coolant pressure?

    I am not sure exactly what is wrong. The coolant is excessivly over pressured to the point where it doesnt stop overflowing out the radiator. Did I blow a headgasket?

    Help on ignition setup.

    I thought the MSD6al would replace the duraspark box completely? So I am better of just sticking with the factory ignition components?

    The best way to make your stock 5.0 fast?

    Personally I say gears, subframe connectors, U/L Control arms, slicks and 100 shot of n20 = cheap 12 second car. Not to mention a full tune up before any of those things are put on.

    How much do 94-98's really weigh?

    As the title says I am curious how much lighter fox bodies really are than sn95's. Is a sn95 worth building as a budget drag car? Or is the Fox body the way to go. Either car I build is going to have an aluminum headed 351w.

    10 Second sn95 ?

    Nice. Yes, I am going the nitrous route instead of turbo because of the cost factor. Unless I am able to get my hands on a nice used single turbo setup.
