    Perhaps help with GM ignition???

    Jeebus! Im not going nearly that high with this motor. I typically shift at around 5700 RPMs anyways. Shift light blinks on at about 5600. The dyno shees says I start dropping off at about that anyways. Well, thats good to know. I think Im probably ok with my digital 6 and blaster coil...

    Help getting my 5.0 legal in Texas

    Those are all good ideas. It looks like the issue with the engine mismatch is going to cause more of a problem with registration than with inspection. For inspection, I can just use some of those suggestions t get it to pass emissions. Namely, putting the factory hpipe on "if I can find...

    Help getting my 5.0 legal in Texas

    Right. Im just not sure how a supercharged car with heads, cam, intake, headers, and aftermarked exhaust is going to pass inspection. And in Collin county, where I live, they make you do a simulated acceleration emmesions test on a dyno.

    Help getting my 5.0 legal in Texas

    Thats an idea. We bought the car complete with the V8 already in it. A mechanic that works on tons of Fox's had built the car quite some time before we bought it. Id rather not involve him at all unless absolutely necessary. We dont have a good rappore anymore... But I suppose I could just...

    Want new polish for new car. Zaino?

    Thanks all. The Zaino is too hard to get for me right now. I still had some Meguires #26 left so I bought the Meguires #7 polish. I used the #7 on the whole car and then went around with the #26. It took forever but it looks really good. I think I did about the best job I could for...

    Havent been here in a while. Everything looks different! I just traded my truck in for a new Mazda 3. Dont worry, Im not going to rice it. I have some questions about polishing waxing a brand new car. Since it is brand new, I doubt it needs much in the way of polishing. I want a very...

    Running my amp in home?

    Hmm. Sounds like it could be more trouble than its worth. Plus, if it woudnt sound so great anyways it really might not be worth it. What specifically makes home theatre subs different from car subs?

    Components in an 05

    A friend of mine has the new 05 GT with the Shaker 1000 system in it. It sounds pretty nice and I was wondering what the system really consists of. Are the front speakers true components? Do they have built in crossovers? Is there a separate amp for each speaker like in the 2002 stangs...

    JL or Phoenix amp?

    I have two different amps right now for my front components (Infinity Kappa perfect 6.5"). Right now I am running a JL audio 300.4. It sounds pretty good. I also have a Phoenix tantrum 500.2 that I was thinking of running at 4 Ohms instead (about 120-150 watts X 2). Do you think...

    No no Im not that ignorant. I am trying to buy one in order to replace my failing Orion. Since I am in a truck and only preamping the fronts anyways. I am going to try and get a 2 channel McIntosh for the Kappa Perfects. BTW, when that orion works it sounds great. What a difference...

    Problems with my Orion amp

    I opened up the amp and there is a loose spot on the board where the RCAs plu in. The gold connecters are broken in a spot but they join back together if you push in on them. Thats why I can get rid of the interferance by pushing on the RCAs really hard. I wonder if I can get a PC repair shop...

    Problems with my Orion amp

    Its not that. I was just switching amps from my less powerfull JL to my more powerfull Orion. No interference with the same RCAs on the JL. Interference with the Orion. The RCAs only come close to the power cable when they are right near the amp. I am using excellent RCA cables. They are...

    Problems with my Orion amp

    I moved my Orion XTRpro 500.4 amp into my truck from my stang. I am getting alot of interference in the speakers that sounds like it is coming through the RCAs. The pitch changes when I rev the motor in my truck. However, if I hold the RCAs really tight up agains the amp, the interferance...
