    MM Panhard Bar and Flowmasters, Will it fit? Tips?

    I have the MM PHB and Flowmaster Force II cat back. I have run 255/45 Hoosier A6 (for autox) and currently have 255/40 Direzza's on the car. You will need to adjust the pipes; but they fit. I also run HPDEs and have had no problems. The PHB was a tremendous help with keeping the rear wheels...

    What is running lean mean??

    Just a quick clarification, the ratio is reported as air to fuel (not fuel to air as suggested above). A ratio of 14.7:1 is stoich and means the engine is receiving 14.7 parts air to 1 part fuel. Anything higher than 14.7:1 would be lean (not enough fuel being delivered leading to a lean...

    K Dezines rear seat delete

    I have a K-Dezines rear seat delete and couldn't be happier. The fit is great and I'm surprised at how well the carpet matches stock...it appears like it is factory installed. It's well built and pretty sturdy, I've even sat on it without concern. I did have to speak with Keith when I first...

    Finally autocrossed my '94 Cobra... DUW!

    If you're looking for a basic understanding of autox, try this link. I've been doing it for about 5 years and really enjoy pushing the car to find its (actually my) handling limits. RMSolo School Introduction

    Such thing as a short oil filter?

    Ditto on the '94-95 Cobra's. They use the shorter filter as Mustang 5L5 noted. I use K&N filters: the Cobra filter is HP 2004; it is 1 5/8" shorter than the HP 3001. I just removed the AC and went the other way; putting in the larger oil filter, and had both in the garage.

    Headers Glowing Red

    What plugs are you running? I agree with some of the above possibilities (timing off, gas igniting in manifold) though another cause could be too hot a plug. This happened to my brother-in-law when a stealership put the wrong plugs in. His manifold was glowing red as you describe. In any...

    Chevy pitches new Camaro for Gays

    You can't make this stuff up! GM pitches Chevrolet Camaro to gay men with beefcake video. For a local movie promotion a week ago aimed at gay buyers, General Motors' Chevrolet sponsored an online video on YouTube featuring the "Bumble Bee Boys in Briefs" -- a couple of buff "go-go boys"...

    Kenne Bell on 5.0?

    I have had good luck with my KB(s) and wouldn't want to drive the car without it. I had a 1.5 KB on the car for over 40k miles, I upgraded to the 2.2 2 years ago and have about 10k on that. On the 302, with minimal bolt-ons (gears, exhaust, CAI) I dynoed 307 RWHP; 348 RWTQ. I hit 12.9 @ 112...

    I got a ticket/advice?

    2 sugestions based on experience: 1. Definately lawyer up as noted above. Get a lawyer with good connections in the town you will be going to court; he may be able to plead you down. 2. If you're under 18, have a parent (preferrably Dad) with you showing concern. My son had a few...

    Helmet questions

    As noted above, confirm if you can use an M (motorcycle) helmet or if you need an SA (sports application) rated helmet. SA is considered above an M helmet. I used s Shoei Snell M2000 at Englishtown with no problems. I also use it for autocrossing. I will be going to an HPDE where they...

    Parts Store Belt Tensioner

    I ordered the '94-'95 tensioner from 5.0 Resto; part no. LRS-6B209B; $74.99 + $14.99 s&h. I didn't consider the auto parts store. The tensioner from 5.0 Resto is a Dayco tensioner, part number 89296; identical to the stock tensioner.

    please help aeromotive fuel rails

    Back to the problem...I had the same issue; tried the small diameter msd distributor but found out it was unsuable as someone noted above (even though summit/jegs had it listed as a 94/95 distributor). I ended up cutting a 45 degree piece out of the end of the fuel rail (a Mallorey rail) and...

    got 4 wisdom teeth out today....

    I didn't swell up until the day after having mine out at the same time. They had to use the hammer & chisel on my 2 lowers. Good luck.

    In pitch black darkness i can see voltage running through spark plug wires. Normal?

    New wires...or get a posse of Ricers! They'd for sure think that was what the E in VTEC stood for!
