Easy way to check crank sensor is try to start car and watch the tach. If the tach is moving the crank sensor is working.

With the milage on the engine you are better off leaving it alone and saving up more until you can re-build/replace the bottom end at the same time as doing performance mods.

I would look at modular head shop. You can get new cams degreed by them (they set up an adjustable crank gear for you) so when you install them they are perfect. That will ensure max power. Supercharger cams dont really give a big lope because of the lobe separation. They should give a slight...

If you are just going to smooth out the casting ridges, smooth out the runners and gasket match you should be gtg. I wouldn't try to actually port unless you really know what you are doing.

That power level would be so easy to hit with a turbo that the likelyhood of you going higher one day by turning up the boost is high. For that reason I would suggest doing a forged crank as well.

Figure out what your power goal is. Then talk to a performance engine builder to figure out the best combo for the $.

If you brought them the shortblock to rebuild you should be looking at under $4k.

Switching to long tube headers will give a better sound than the stock exhaust manifolds as well as building more power. Should also go with a 75mm t-body, aftermarket upper plenum, Anderson power pipe and sct maf. Will need a custom tune with all those parts. That combination will give some...

Rebuilding it with good forged rods, forged pistons(made for boost), good rings gapped wider and arp main and head studs is all you would really NEED to do. Don't need a forged crank or other upgrades unless your goal is over 650rwhp. A good performance engine builder in your area could put a...

You could pick up some good power by doing tfs heads, blower cams, long tubes and raising the boost. Problem is that your stock bottom end won't be able to take it. Those upgrades also won't build the power per dollar increase that the blower kit itself did. How much power do you want to get and...

If the battery had a cell opening up inside that could have been the problem. Drive it under same circumstances a few times close to home to see if it still does it.

It would depend on the type of emissions test your state performs on your year car. If it's just a plug in codes/readiness test like pa has then it's unlikely your car will fail if properly tuned. If it's a tailpipe sniffer test then there is a chance the car may fail. Best to get in contact...

400rwhp through an auto is a tall order if just installing a V3 kit. You would need many additional mods to hit that #. With just the V3 kit and cat back you would be looking at 320-340rwhp I think.

I have a vortech on my 04 auto gt. Has plenty of power but does require getting the rpms to 3k to really start feeling it. A kenne bell would be building good power at 2k rpm.

Kenne bell will provide a complete kit and tune that assumes you have a stock setup and everything is in good working order. The tune will be safe for that situation. Of there are aftermarket parts involved or an old tired fuel pump there is the possibility for problems. It's always best to...

Dont forget to install a pilot bearing in crank of replacement engine from auto car

There is an electrical draw in the system. The easiest way to find it will be to unhook the negative battery cable and hook up a multimeter between the terminal and the battery post. Set the meter to read amps. A normal memory draw will be below .5A when the car is off, key out and all doors...

Is it an automatic trans? If so 99-03 read vehicle speed differently than 04 did due to a change in the transmission.

The charger seats will require the power seat module and heated seat module to both be working and attached for the seat functions to work correctly. Those modules also require bus communications with the bcm or tipm to function. There might be a way to "hotwire" some of the seat functions such...

Sales going on right now. Could get aftermarket seats cheaper or convert your factory seats to cobra seats using a foam/skin kit.
