I was out driving my car like an idiot and I sprayed a 75 shot on a very hot day in June. Right after, I noticed my car was vibrating the steering wheel and shifter badly under acceleration and even a little at idle. The car seems to have full power and drives fine other than the vibration...

Can you guys give it to me straight and tell me if this ET is slow for my MPH? I'm running on MT ET Streets and/or Nitto NT05's. This run was with a 125 shot. Also, I have adjustable shocks and struts. When drag racing how should I set them up? Stiff or loose on certain wheels? I'm a newb at...

Naturally, we all want our cars to be faster, so while at the Norwalk NMRA event I happened to stumble into the Ford Racing tent and saw this bad boy. Brand new released for 2013, all aluminum block and heads. It got me thinking, $13000 for a pretty much bolt on 2013 Shelby GT500 killer with...

I'm primarily a 79-93 Fox body guy, but my wife has an '04 blown GT and was wondering do these cars need subframe connectors like the Fox body does when you hit this kind of power? I'm concerned more about body twist and flexing than her getting a good 60'. Thanks guys!

Can someone explain the benefits of these mods on a mostly street driven resto-mod with limites 1320 strip action?

I haven't touched my motor in about 6 years and want to make sure I stay ahead of a new stock Coyote 5.0's. My AFR 165's are 58cc and make high compression but I bought them when I had a 302 block. Where can I realistically get some more power? AFR 185 or AFR 195's? Are 205's too big? New cam...

I just ordered a Kenne Bell supercharger for our 2004 GT and in preparation for its arrival was putting a electrical fuel pressure gauge together and noticed that the stock fuel rails on our 2004 does not have Schrader valve to install the fuel pressure sending unit. My friend's 2002 does have...

Thanks in advance for anyone that can help. A couple years ago I was at the strip and on my last pass the nitrous fuel pressure hose blew off and I was spraying dry nitrous with hardly any fuel. Needless to say I blew a had gasket. What do I need to install in order to prevent that from...

I'm looking to run a 100 HP Zex dry kit on my DSS 331. I have the following mods. What's plugs P/N do you recommend and do you see any problems running nitrous with my setup? Thanks for the assistance guys. DSS Pro Bullet 331 Short Block AFR 165 Heads, 58cc Crane PowerMax Cam (F-303...

Quick question for you experienced guys! I want to do a poor man's leak down test. Please tell me if you think this will work or am I wasting my time. I only have a compression tester, but I do have a small compressor. I want to take the compressor and run some air through the compression...

I started a thread on here last Saturday explaining that after my last run of the night at the track my car was running crappy. Rough idle, loss of power through RPM range. Any how, last night I did a compression test and found cylinders 3 and 4 at 30 of pressure. All others were 150 - 160...

Was pulling some great runs on the 125 shot, 11.7, 11.8 and then 11.6. On the third qaulifying run...12.0. WTF! Turned down the run off to get the slip, the car was running a little off. Half hobbled it back to the pits, opened the hood, started pulling plugs and then noticed the line off...

My car leaks a little drop of oil in between uses, it's done this for a number of years, most likely the oil pan gasket or low oil sending unit. Anyway, the other day I noticed just a small amount of antifreeze mixed with it. I also get a little leak of coolant just above the gulley on the...

I was thinking about picking these up. Anyone heard anything about them or have some experience with them? Thanks.

I'm looking to get a brand new TKO600 transmission. Looking around I see there are (2) part numbers for this transmission. Basically they're the same with the exception of the final (5th) drive gear. If there are any TKO600 users out there, what part number are you running and what's the...

Was out last night playing around when I nailed 1st gear hard, went to shift into 2nd and...BOOM...! The car would no longer shift into gear. What do you think? Clutch, tranny, driveshaft? The engine runs and idles fine. HELP..!

Currently I have a "F" cam in my car and am looking for a little more power. I'm looking at either a new cam or upgrading to 1.7 RR's. Which is the easier and better option? I am leaning toward the 1.7 RR's becuase I use nitrous and the duration the F cam and 1.7 RR's will give me will be...

Well, yesterday I had my engine builder fine tune my car on the dyno. The car picked up an extra 16 RWHP witha few A/F adjustments. Maybe it could've been from losing the 3 chamber Flowmaster's and going to MAC ProDumps, if anything though, I figured I would've lost horspower but gained...

I just installed my Zex "Dry" kit on my 331 Stroker motor. I have a question about plugs and timing. Is the Autolite 3923 a cold enough plug for the 125 shot? Also, if I'm at 18* timing on motor, is 6* enough to pull out on spray? Thanks in advance for the help.

Well, the final connections were made and I did a test run with the Zex "Dry" kit. Ran the smallest shot of 75 HP without changing timing (18*) or plugs. Holy crap the thing pulls hard in 3rd, defintely an 11 second car now. Any how, I have a few quesitons for the experts. I will step down...
