    What's the Difference between Walboro Fuel Pumps?

    It's been over three years since I've driven my 99 Limited Edition 35th GT and slowly starting to work on it and get it road worthy and restored again. But I have a starting issue that I suspect is the fuel pump and trying to figure out which pump to use. The BBK and Walboro seem to be the...

    Fuel How To Replace Fuel Filler Tube Gasket *pics*

    This morning when gassing up for work I saw the puddle dripping underneath from the same spot. Guess I have this project to do this weekend. Would this leak also cause any sort of "missing" while driving? For a while now when under load or even mild acceleration one cylinder starts to miss...

    the H or X debate

    I ended up going with a Prochamber last year for my GT. Love the sound. Already had Flows. I didn't want super loud, so it rumbles nice and deep, but noticable at idle, and when I accelerate it isn't as obnoxious as some systems that to me sound like a V8 version of a Honda where all sounds...

    Synthetic Oil Question

    I agree, under extreme conditions like high performance, Amsoil also changes their drain policy and recommends oil analysis to make sure the oil is still protecting properly. True on the manufacturers wanting to please the customer, one reason the drains are being increased. But they also...

    Synthetic Oil Question

    Wow, older post, but still pretty valid. A lot of new products and changes at Amsoil since, as I'm sure with other companies. The XL-7500 is now just XL and can go longer than the 7500 mile/6 month interval if the manufacturer recommends longer drains. Earlier this year Amsoil released a...

    Interest in a simpler KarKraft functional hood scoop?

    And a metal box for under the scoop to keep it from flexing and be the actual intake...and one that fits the 35th Anni. scoops lower profile. Still wonder whether the Mach 1 under hood setup would go flush with the hood when it's closed. That could be the internals, then just the outside mod...

    Fix your Slow dropping/hanging RPMs

    Me too. The one I made cause my CE light to eventually come on, then was okay after I removed it and reset it. Since then I've changed my intake setup and added a Prochamber. Would love to hear that gurgle echoing through the Prochamber. Mike

    35th Anniv Chin spoilers

    I remember buying mine when they first came out for around $60 as well. Don't remember the company offhand. When I had to repair my front end last summer when a truck clipped it, I decided to put a new one on and was shocked that they were around $120 everywhere, in the same range as the local...

    clear diff cover

    So what are people's recommendation on other covers? A local shop recommended the Ford Racing cover, which they said now says SVO on it. Although when searching online, I see both out there. Is there a difference? I think he said the SVO is made by TA. What about other brands, like Trick...

    Interest in a simpler KarKraft functional hood scoop?

    I wonder why they, or someone else, isn't considering making a newer kit. I know I emailed them once or twice over the past few years asking as well and got the same response. It seems like there are still a lot of people who would be interested in something like this if the price were right...

    motor oil

    I've used Amsoil for years in many vehicles, long before ever becoming a Dealer, and have been happy. My Dad even before me back in the 70s soon after they first came out. Of the two choices you mentioned though, Mobil 1 would be my choice over Castrol Syntec. Syntec is a Group III oil which...

    Auto fluid type

    If you use a fluid that meets the specs that are required, any fluid, then you should be okay. Once you find the fluids that do, then the choice is which one you feel will do the better job. Synthetics tend to perform better than petroleums, although some synthetics these days are petroleum...

    Amsoil has had a synthetic ATF meeting Mercon V for many years now.

    Making the switch from conventional to synthetic oil

    There should be no issues switching over, only thing to note is that you are going backwards in quality. If you are using Amsoil or Mobil 1 already, you would be switching back to a base that cannot handle heat as well as a PAO, and won't offer the same protection. In many cases if all runs...

    Making the switch from conventional to synthetic oil

    This is a hard one to answer without sounding like a sales pitch for Amsoil, since I'm a Dealer. But if Amsoil didn't exist, I'd probably be using Mobil 1, knowing what I know now. Both are good oils. Amsoil came out first, Mobil followed up a few years later. Amsoil has always promoted...
