    Gears?

    Ok, I'll give it a try. I forgot to mention, the car is a five speed *slaps forhead* DUH !! I also forgot to mention the car is wearing 16" wheels. Damn, yesterday was a long day

    Gears?

    I recently purchased a '95 GT with more than a few aftermarket add ons. My question is this. How do I know for sure (without removing the rear end cover and counting the teeth) if the previous owner installed gears in the rear? The car has 245/55/16 wheels/tires and turns 1900 RPM @ 60 MPH...

    Need some cam help

    I added a B303 to my basically stock engine and it made a world of difference. Yea, the cam is mild, but it added a ton of low end torque and some sweet power on the top end as well. Bigger is not always better, and I highly recommend a Motorsport cam for your Pony.

    RTV on head gaskets = how bad?

    No type of sealant/RTV should ever be used on head gaskets. The only time I've ever seen such a thing is when hackers are trying to compensate for a warped head/deck.

    oil smoke, but how serious??

    Worn vavle seals will give you a "puff" on startup. So I wouldn't look to that as the culprit. I wouldn't worry about your motors internals either, seeing as how it doesn't smoke when you get on it. As it happened only once I wouldnt worry about it. If it happened more often I would say you...

    Going Carb....Good or NO GOOD????/plus others

    No, carbs are kick ass when used in the proper application. EFI is great for a driver/toy, but for a serious car, carbs have it all over EFI.

    Remember my video when i break tranny , here is rematch against that 69 Camaro

    Actually, I am an "old schooler". I grew up driving Chevelles, Cudas and a host of 70s Detroit iron. I love a four barreled big block with a four speed, they are like nothing else in the world (IMO). Fact is though, if you want to race on weekends and still get decent gas mileage and...

    WHERE AREA ALL THE FAST IMPORTS....

    Those rice burning wastes of metal aren't "fast". Any healthy Pony can waste an import without even redlining.

    Remember my video when i break tranny , here is rematch against that 69 Camaro

    I had a '83 Z-28 with a '69 Corvette 327 and a 5 speed, and yea, it was a a quick car .. but nothing like my '95 fuel injected 5.0. No small block will ever out perform a fuel injected 5.0 (imo) Nice whoopin' got laid on that Camaro though .... sweet

    Going Carb....Good or NO GOOD????/plus others

    Fuel injection is a better chioce with todays lame gasoline. If you can even call it gasoline, its more like rubbing alcohol (LOL). Carbs require constant adjusting (as will your ignition timing) to compensate for the huge differences in quality found in pump gas. Yea, carbs are great when...

    Picking up a 95 gt today

    Congrats on your purchase. I just grabbed a mildly modded 95 GT off a local car dealer who didnt know what he had. Yea, the clock says 139K, but the car is tight and runs like a banshee with its azz on fire. I paid a bit more than you though .. $4250 was drained from my bank account ... but...
