Swapped my TKO for a Lentech AOD. To start the car, I still have to press the clutch pedal to the floor to engage the clutch interlock. I just pulled off the clutch pedal, and dropped the interlock mechanism. Here's what I see: - one black terminal has 3 blue/red wires. - one grey terminal...

There was a time when they had regular weekday TnT, but it looks like those days are over (I've only been once, but I'd been planning on my visit for a long time). Now it appears that the only time the track is open is on a once per month basis for bracket racing. As for slow cars and laughing...

I'm ashamed to admit that I'm not sure who Greg is (I've met so many people in the last couple of weeks I'm getting them all confused, and I'm assuming it's not GS). When and where might I have met him - or more to the point, what does he drive? You can pm me if you want.

Hey Shawn - yeah, I had to look at the timeslip twice because I couldn't believe I had run that fast. The day started off rocky too; my first pass was an 8.074 with a 1.945 60'. The secret was really boiling the tires on the burn-out. I'm already starting to wonder how quick I could run if I...

Thanks - now I just have to get a handle on the lights at Barona. I hate exiting in the first round (or any round for that matter). Which of the many new faces I have met are you 86/92stang?

Barona's facility is awesome - well worth the trip. I shattered my previous best ET (7.74) when I ran a 7.572 off of a 1.623 60'. In eliminations, I redlit in the first round (damn LED lights), but had a 1.59 60' and a 7.75 after letting off the gas at 660' (I didn't know that I had redlit, and...

1/8 mile NHRA certified track. They have bracket racing on both Saturday (NHRA Summit series) and Sunday (Barona's own bracket series with cash payout I believe). Tomorrow will be my first visit - I'll let you know what I thought.

I'm planning on visiting Barona for the first time tomorrow. I will be trailering my car. How big is the pit area, and how soon do I have to get there in order to ensure I have a place to park and unload the trailer? How is the drive up there, and what is the best route if hauling a trailer...

takes two to tango It has a bit of a metallic flavor, with a sweet aftertaste. Oops - looks like I'm letting my inner-child slip out as well. Next thing you know, I'll be back in diapers.

Tremec TKO with Steeda Tri-Ax shifter. When I removed the shifter bezel today, I found a grey colored grease (??) puddled at the base of the shifter. I don't remember seeing this before. Is this normal?

The rubber fuel line between the stock filter and my t-rex pump is damaged. All I want to do is replace the hose with a new one. Looking at the existing hose, there is a metal band connecting the hose to what appears to be a platic insert leading into the filter itself. I can't figure out how to...

I ordered new PCV valves today. I pick the Ford turbo version up tomorrow (P/N EV-127-A). Just in case that doesn't solve my blowby issue, I also ordered a PCV valve for a '96 Toyota Supra turbo (a popular choice on the boards). My question: once I install the new valve, should I keep the...

Three of them actually (unfortunately somewhat long): 1) I had a new header gasket and intake gasket installed. Prior to this, the car was throwing a CEL when downshifting, and leaking some oil. Now the oil leak is solved, and the exhaust is sealed (and I've yet to see the CEL come on)...

Well - seeing as my previous post was ignored, I thought I'd try something that would maybe get people to take a look inside, and it accomplished that - didn't it?? As for being perverted, well - I'm far from that, and don't condone it. Once you read the contents, you can clearly see that there...

OK- now that I have your attention, here's the problem. I have a March A/C delete kit and I've thrown two serpentine belts in as many months (while racing at the track). After reading through many threads, I've come across two alternatives: 1) Use Ford A/C delete kit. With my Vortech YS trim...

This past weekend my Autometer monster tach died on the GT - at least I think it did. It has worked fine for a year (bought it with the car, don't know it's age), but now it will work for a little while, then the needle starts bouncing around sporadically (stock tach still works fine). Since...

A rare bump I don't do this often, but I just want to see if there is anyone else out there with some suggestions.

Use the right tools, Luke Not replacing, just removing it from the stock CA so that it can be installed on the QA-1 tubular control arm (QA-1 is one of the few aftermarket manufacturers of K-members that allow you to use the stock CA). I learned over on The Corral that there is a special tool...

Last weekend I successfully got my rear end installed. But along the way there were a few unexpected surprises - the biggest one was getting the axle bushing out for the UCA. I pulled it off, but it took much longer than I expected (and introduced me to some muscles that had long been dormant)...

Which did you decide to purchase, the Eco Street or the Pro comp (and why).
