    Hood Pins

    There is no pratical purpose for hood pins for most drivers. Unless you plan on driving your can at excessive speeds (upwards of 120 mph) there is no real need, other than looking cool. They are used on race cars as they hold the hood down more reliably than a typical hood latch does. This...

    Aluminum Driveshaft making a difference

    Your theory is not reasonable... You forgot about the most important (and most power consuming) component between the engine and the axle, the transmission... An AL shaft will reduce rotating mass and eliminate the U joint in the stock driveshaft, which will reduce losses, but it will not...

    Just a few questions for a possible purchase

    It must be a 4.0L V6, based on the price. I would check under the bumpers to be sure that there is no damage from hitting curbs. If you put on an X-charger, it will move...
