    bunch of quick questions......

    hey guys I wanted to know more about my stupid EEC. I took out my smog pump and the connecting tube in the back of the heads and pluged the holes. When I did this I just left all the lines there. Would that throw a code to my EEC and make it run like doodoo? On the EGR plate between the...

    bad dyno numbers.....

    sorry, I didnt update my sig. I have 24lbs injectors. The heads where decked to give me a comp of 9.47. The heads flowed just like the AFR 185 on the intake and out flowed them on the exhaust by 10 cfm. I had asked my motor guy, and he said it wouldnt be a problem for the little 306. I also...

    bad dyno numbers.....

    hey all. I just put my car on the dyno, 288hp and 307tq. This REALLY doesnt seem right. I think my cam is the bottleneck, but I am not sure (crane 2030). I dont have a chip either, but could that make a huge difference? I was hoping for at least 300hp. During the dyno the water temp was...

    Dyno Results are in, Pics - Holley Systemax Kit :sad:

    my stock systemax kit was 275rwhp and 305 tq, with a spun bearing and no tb or chip. My numbers are about average with the kit. The came really shines from 2800 -5800. I would check your MAF. good luck :nice: james

    gears for crane 2030?

    I have 3.08 and they are a good commuter gear, but they suck!!! I am going to get a t5z and upgrade the rear. I am debating between the 3.73 and the 3.90. I have heard "dont fear the gear" thousands of times, but i do commute about 60 miles 3 days out of the week. does anyone have experience...

    Power Steering Pump / Quick Ratio Rack

    The pump always made a noise, before and after the pullies. I have had the new pump on the pullies for about 1500 miles, and I havent heard anything yet. from what I understood from Mathis, is that our stock pump wasnt made for the quick ratio rack. I dont know if it will limit the "life"...

    suspension ripping 1gs?

    When I talked to Maire Racing in Hayward, he said to spend a good amount of change on your shocks and struts (I.E. Bills., Koni) and springs. I wouldnt recommend the adjustable lowers, because they are a PITA and unless its your race car its not worth it on the street. They also recommened (as...

    Need new shocks and struts... Koni's or Bilsteins?

    This is a half review, since i only have the Koni yellow for my rear coilovers. They are externally adjustable. Koni will replace them if ther are and defects and wear. They no longer make the reds, any you see know are old. They tend to give a bit of a stiffer ride, but i have it turned...

    EEC test + rain +fuel pump = what?

    jrichker, I REALLY appreciate your help and for clarifying about the computer. I think i found the problem with the switch coming from under the steereing column, I get 12v there but not at the EEC relay. If you ever in the bay area, I will buy you a pitcher of beer, and also to cjones and 347...
