When I bought the car, the stock distributor had already been worked a bit by the previous owner....so the advance is definity not stock. When I set the base timing at 14, the total timing is at 42! Also the total timing comes in very quick (like a bit under 2000 rpm). I'm just wondering that...

I bought an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake manifold (carbed) a couple years ago, and installed it with Fel-Pro gaskets (blue seal) and ARP stainless intake bolts. I've never had any luck keeping torque on the manifold for some reason.....every time I checked the tightness, it needed more torque...

I just scored on a set of 4 Riken 15x7 4x4.25 bolt pattern wheels from my work for free. They are the multi (mesh?) spokes with the black center and polished lip. They look exactly like the picture attached. I have 16" pony wheels that are already on the car and I like them better so I'll use...

I checked my total timing today and it seems a little high. My base timing is 14* and my total timing is 42*. Shouldn't it be around 38* or am I wrong? I'm running the H/C/I combo in my signature.....so about 9.4:1 compression and I'm running 92 octane. Thanks.

Holy crap what a difference. The same tone is there (if not a bit bassier) but it's way louder now. I was expecting it to be a little louder but not this much, lol.....I like it a lot better actually.:) I haven't even tried the upper rpms and I can already tell a big difference, just from...

Bolted on the roller rockers today....should have it in the car and fired up by Sunday at least. :)

The readings go as follows: 4 - 150 psi 8 - 160 psi 3 - 160 psi 7 - 160 psi 2 - 160 psi 6 - 155 psi 1 - 150 psi 5 - 160 psi This is all on the stock engine with 245,000 kms (around 140,000 miles). What do engines with this kind of...

I am just wondering, because they make custom camshafts and are located in Langley, British Columbia. Anyone hear anything good/bad about them?

I am going to be using 15x7 10 hole aluminum wheels. I am looking at Mickey Thompson's new ET Street radials. 235/60/15 OR 275/50/15......I know the 275's are technically too big for the wheel, but I'm wondering if anyone else has that size on the 15x7 wheels?

I bought some Red Line synthetic gear lube today and it says it has friction modifier already in it, but the guy at the store said that he had it in his camaro and he need the FM. So I bought some anyway, just to be safe. My question is can anything go wrong from putting too much in?....if it...

Just wondering what you all use in your T-5. I just picked up some Redline D4 ATF for mine, and was wondering what everyone else uses. ???

The number is E4TE-A3A

Are the cams that are designated "efi" cams ok for a carbed motor? I'm under the impression that the only reason they're called efi cams is because they work with a computer.......meaning, not as lopey, and more LSA. Am I right? The two cams I've narrowed down for my combo are efi cams...

The title is supposed to say ".....future combo" by the way....I messed it up :nonono: 1. Comp Cams XE270HR Specifications: * Advertised duration: 270 intake/276 exhaust * Duration at .050 in.: 218 intake/224 exhaust * Gross valve lift: .512 in. intake/.512 in. exhaust * Lobe...

I've got a problem with my shifter vibrating violently at high rpms when I'm on the throttle. It's been happening since I've had the car but its a little worse now that the 3.73s are in. I have a brand new FRPP driveshaft in there so its not that......I bet the mount in my car right now has...

This is my future combo by the way.......Edelbrock Performer RPM intake w/ holley 600 cfm carb (possibly bigger jets) Edelbrock Performer RPM heads with 1.9 intake valves. I'll also have 3.73 gears in the rear. I need opinions on which is better for this combo between these two cams.....and...
