I have been told that my 95 5.0 came off the show room floor set up to burn 87 octane gas. Every time I try to run it, my car pings bad. It has 111K miles with no oil burn or other engine issues. When I run 91 or better (currently 93 in Alabama), there is no pinging except under load (a/c...

I have a line on a used catback magnaflow system. It was cut at the elbow that goes over the axle. Is welding this back together a good idea? What concerns should I have with wanting to do this? Thanks, Eric

For the past few months my car has been dieing for no reason. If I was rolling, the engine would catch and continue. If I was stopped, the engine would crank for a while, then catch. This trend has been slowing getting worse. At first I thought it was a fuel pump issue, replaced it. NO LUCK...

My fifth gear syncro went and so I had my tranny rebuilt under warranty and added a Tri-ax shifter. Love the shifter, btw. My question is, how long do I run the new tranny before doing a complete oil change and wanted to know if it is recommended to put synthetic in when I change the oil...

Looks like I have been a slacker.

RX-7 was fast. Would have liked to have seen what the turbo 95 would have done against the supra.

Funnie, the camaro won.

Nice.

I don't have any engine pictures yet, its bone stock.

RC GTJake Rio TMoss No particular order. Thanks for all the great advise and information for a newby stanger. Happy Holidays.

I like the last set the best.

Probably will look around for a ported lower, any suggestions for a place in CA? Will the ported stock lower flow as good as the explorer? I can't seem to find a used cobra.

Thanks for the advise on the intake. I will definitely do the gears now and start to look for the intake. BTW, the stock tb and maf will do me okay for a while, but will a change in exhaust do more for my stocker, except for sound? Eirc

Jake, I mean look into having someone port the lower, I don't know how. Would the 3.73 gears be to much, since i do above average highway driving? TMOSS - Are you interested and how you would recommend doing this from sunny CA, thanks. Eric

I haven't decided on the h/c/i combo, yet. I think that change is down the road. I mistakingly bought (and plan to get out of) a typhoon complete, but after reading alot of PM's, decided I didn't want to spend the additional 1300+ for the heads/cam and labor. So for now, I will stay with...
