    PCV Valve on Trick Flow intake

    I just got my new Street Heat intake and I planned on installing it this weekend. While looking over the instructions, it said that I might need an extra foot of 3/8 in. vacuum line to relocate the PCV valve. Do I need it for this setup, because it said only for certaion models? Thanks

    Wierd clicking sound when I turn the car off, Help!

    I don't know if this is normal or not, but when I turn my 89 5.0 off, I keep hearing a clicking sound from the number 6 cylinder (driver side, 2nd from the front). Is this normal, and if I pull my valve cover off that side, would I need a new gasket? Thanks P.S. My car is really slow

    Sunpro Timing Light, How to use??

    I finally decided to check my timing, so I borrowed a Suntune (Sunpro) DC Power Timing Light, model CP-7520. This isn't inductive(?) I think because it doesn't clip over the plug wire. It has a little spring thing about 2.5 inches long that looks like it might go between the plug wire and the...
