    Valve Body Help

    I need a little help from people with valve body experience in C6's. Currently I have a TCI #421000 valve body in mine but it is not 100% manual control. Here's a couple of things I don't like about this VB. 1. When downshifting, it will not go back into 1st gear completely unless I shift...

    Has anybody experimented with fuel pressure on a stock motor?

    I have found myself in a situation where I need to find just under .2 seconds with my bracket car. It used to be the footbrake class we have around here was just one class with all cars run and a fast ET limit. Now we have sportsman and pro classes with pro class using a 13.99 ET cutoff on the...

    Timing Lock Down

    I've got a '93 5.0 bracket car. I will have a chance this Friday to do some testing. This is the first chance I will have to try different things in quite a while so I was considering locking down the timing to see if I can gain some ET and make the car more consistent than it already is...

    Check valve system removal

    Does anybody have any ideas on now to cap off the check valve assembly? I have removed the entire system, but still have the pipe connected to the back of the heads. Basically, for years I have had the pipe capped off where the two pipes intersect. I just want to get it out of the way because it...

    Has anybody used a wet NOS system on a stock motor on a regular basis?

    I'm looking to step up my bracket car for the upcoming year. One of our local tracks is looking to split up our footbrake bracket class into Pro (10.00-13.99) and sportsman (13.00-slower). I currently run in the mid 14.2's during the heat of the winter. The sportsman level class is usually for...

    Cobra Intake

    OK, I have a couple of questions. I've got a '93 Hatch that I use as my bracket car. I've got many drivetrain, chassis and suspension mods so it is set to run low 10's. However, I am still using my original motor because up to this point it has made me very succesful bracket racing so I don't...

    Check out Australia and New Zealand cars

    Seems Ford offers better cars in other countries. They have a diesel powered Ranger called the Courier. They also have a Falcon. You can get a Falcon 4 door, or a Falcon UTE. Here's the website from FPV. FPV is their version of SVT. They have a turbocharged 4.0 making 360 HP and 405 lb/ft of...

    Looking to build a 4.25 stroke SB

    Has anybody in here had any experience yet with the 4.25 stroker cranks that have been produced recently? I'm looking to build a torquey bracket motor with no more than 11:1 comp. and a Dart block. I know that the 4.125 stroke cranks have been out for a while but the 4.25 is relatively new. I'm...

    Tried and proven 351W stroker?

    Hey all, I need some opinions. I am looking to build a LARGE 351W stroker motor for bracket racing. It will be in a 3,500 pound 1993 LX Hatch with a C6 tranny. I want to build a flat-top piston motor that will last a couple of seasons (600-700 runs) without any work. My current combo has my car...

    Air check valve pipe removal

    I was just wondering if anybody has removed the air check valve pipe that connects to the heads and into the emissions system. I have had mine capped off for years, but it has become a pain to try and keep it from leaking. I just want to take it off and cap the holes off in the head somehow. I...

    First time C-clip eliminator install

    I just got my 33-spline C-clip eliminator/axle set from Moser with a spool. I understand everything that is involved and how it goes together, but shouldn't there be something in between where the actual eliminator and rear end housing meet? I know that the ends need to be cut off so that they...

    Strut/Shock recommendation

    Ok, this is one subject I cannot find much help on in here. I have a 93 bracket car. I am going to replace all shocks and struts this offseason from the originals. It is a drag car only. I do take it on the street very occasionally, but I will not buy according to that. This is my last step into...

    Shocks

    I need some opinions. What does everybody recommend for a decent shock replacement for front and back for a 1993 Mustang. I going to install drag shocks during the offseasons, but I need to replace my stock ones right now. It's not a daily driven car, so I'm looking for a decent priced...
