    ok. since it was advertized as MM and was delievered with their instructions and looks like MM that is what i assumed it was because in 15 years of seeing tube k members i have never seen another one that looks like the MM. ive never even seen a copy of an MM but i am willing to take other...

    the car is built with used ebay parts and everybody elses garbage. it runs 6.30s@108 on the motor in the 1/8th.

    what I think is funny is people assume everything someone welds together is perfect. we had Wolfe look at it since we live by him and wanted to make sure we weren't missing anything. you know who that is, right? its installed correctly. he bought it off ebay because it was cheap. he knew the...

    he bought it off of ebay from some guy and it was supposed to be "unused". it didn't come directly from MM. probably a reason for that. glad its not mine. but the car has gone mid 1.3 sec 60' with the DS angle all f-ed up. its hilarious.

    it doesn't fit worth a :leghump:. David Wolfe laughed when he saw it. I assure you, they made a turd. the car has never been hit, with the stock k member the motor was fine. the DS engine mount tab is up higher than the PS. the PS is more forward than the DS. so the front of the motor is angled...

    when he told me who made it I thought he was joking because you never hear anything bad about them. whoever put this one on the jig was hung over or still high.

    i have a buddy with a maximum motorsports k member. its heavy and durable, but that thing is about the worst fitting POS ive ever seen. the engine is so far from center its stupid. when the k member is square the motor is way off. I guess every dog has its day.

    Rockers 1.6 V.s 1.7

    sometimes, when you are doing a custom grind based on the lobe catalog you will find a lobe that has everything you want in terms of .006, .050 and .200 duration and ramp rate except the lift is a little off compared the other lobe you are looking at. also sometimes you have one lobe that has...

    Power Gain By Switching From 93 To C16?

    dont you have to setup for q16 similar to setting up for alcohol? the only thing i know about q16 is that the fumes make your eyes bleed.

    Quest For Cylinder Heads

    either way they are going to need to be gone through. at $50 each that's not a bad deal. I would pick the one that looks the most promising, smell the dipstick, look inside the t stat neck for scale, ect. just general condition to see why the thing is in the wrecking yard. start tearing into it...

    Rocker Stud Size

    whenever I used to set them I would shim them to try get my 20ft/lbs between 1/4 and 3/4 turn. I just felt like over 3/4 turn was too much. that's just personal preference though.

    Rocker Stud Size

    I know gt40 irons and e7 are pedestal. and I think gt40p stuff are the same, although ive never had my hands on a set of those. there are quite a few sets of aluminum heads that used to be made for pedestals. the only problem is that other than all the time it takes to adjust the rockers...

    Rocker Stud Size

    yeah. as long as they are still pedestal mount and haven't been converted to studs/guideplates. some have converted the pedestal heads to studs, but its labor intensive.

    Power Gain By Switching From 93 To C16?

    a little, but if you aren't going to run more boost you can just mix pump gas 50/50 with c12 for a lot less. I have been told u don't mix c16 by guys at vp. ive done it without issue, but they said it doesn't mix right with pump gas and c12 does.

    Considering Nitrous

    if that motor is built correctly itll have enough balls to run high 10s. which in my experience, even with slicks on an unprepped surface will just blow the tires off. so my question is, how fast is this thing supposed to be on pump gas and a bottle? because a good stock displacement windsor on...

    Considering Nitrous

    you and everyone else. do yourself a favor, when you are going to run the gas (or if you are going to set a boosted combo on kill at the track) run at least a 50/50 mix of 93 and a decent race fuel like vp c12 or Sunoco 110. you can mix both those with pump gas and be fine. other stuff you need...

    Fuel Efi Block Into A Carb'd Stang

    the biggest difference is the hp level they support. the larger pump will give you more room to make more power later. you have to regulate them down either way. i have a black pump for mine.

    Fuel Efi Block Into A Carb'd Stang

    i would just run a holley blue or black pump and a regulator with no return line. no reason to complicate it by trying to make an intake efi pump work.
