:D Well im sure tons of these questions are asked daily but I have specific questions that I would like to accumulate answers to in one place. I want to build a 408 and stick it in a fox body (didn't see that coming huh?). I would like to put in a built c4 tranny and run stock ported and...

yeah I know to pull the IAC before adjusting the screw because the IAC can only increase throttle from the base setting. Also, I am pretty sure that the cam was at its lowest possible point. I just replaced the intake gaskets because I was getting a heavy sucking through the oil filler and...

yes spun the crank in order to adjust each valve. I find it hard to believe the TFS 1 would take a vacuum can... I think something else is wrong. Nobody knows? It idles really low, like around 750... maybe I need to set my throttle stop and tps voltage?

I thought people run around with the TFS 1 and have little driveability issues. The rockers are something that could be the problem, because I did them and I am not all that good. It is hard to adjust those damn things with the hydraulic lifter wanting to bleed out oil when you adjust...

the isky cam was a .480/.500 lift cam with 210/218 duration, I thought that a cam with more duration would be better for power and I could take advantage of the ported heads. Why would you go back to the isky? I had the computer unplugged the whole time and figured that was good enough for...

damn I forgot something... when I am slowing down and push in on the clutch after a half throttle pull it wants to die on me, it starts surging aggresivley.

So I switched out my Isky cam for a TFS #1 cam. I use to pull 18lbs of vacuum, but now I pull about 10lbs.... I thought that lobe seperation determined the majority of vacuum and this cam is suppose to have good pull. I have drove it for a little while and it sucks, I have lost power and got...

thats what was in the back of my mind but I thought I ruled it out with the vacuum check. I guess if you think about it though it would keep a constant vacuum. can anyone else second this?

I just did a TFS 1 cam swap... I have a cobra upper intake and ported GT40 heads on the bottom. I fired it up last night and it idles at around 2000 rpms and then I unscrew the oil cap and I get some good suction... also the rpms drop to around 800. I plugged a vacuum gauge up to the vacuum...

geez rsw007 that is some sweet launching. I use a Mickey Thompson E/T street tire.... I have LCA's, Subframe connectors, Springs, Shock/Struts (KYB).. so I have done some suspension stuff but can never really plant my foot into off the line with the nitrous. I can't launch it at all cuz it...

So I was at the track last week and ran the ol car down the quarter. I had a 1.997 60' 12.991 E.T. 107.61 MPH first time to ever hit 12's... before I was running a street tire and launching with a 65 dry shot of nitrous and running mid 13's with a 2.4 60'. I let the pressure out to...

oh yeah, I remember how helpful this site was...sweet

My semester of college is almost over and I because of the time I have had to dedicate to school I haven't been able to post on here much. Anyways, I plan on building a 306 for some fun and I was wondering if I could get a little help: I am going to be running AFR 165 heads and a simple...

I have a 235/55/16, I only went a little wider, I know it will increase the sidewall a bit, but it is a ratio, I didn't think going 10mm wider would affect the ratio significantly

400 treadwear I thought indicated the life of the tire, I had 320's, these tires are a lot softer than those

did you just buy a new pigtail or something

it is a sticky compound, 400 treadwear... I only got them because they were cheap and wider. i got them from the tire rack... also had a hell of a time getting the damn bead to pop.

I installed B springs, the backs are pretty simple, the fronts are a bitch. I would use a compressor.

I put on some 235/55/16 Summoto HR4's, and ever since I have got them put on the car feels like im driving with slicks. Pressure is at 38, and I also had new B springs put in. I attributed the problem to the new springs needing broke in but im not so sure now. When I am driving around 40 mph...

I think I have a problem but im not sure. I recently put in a ram heavy duty clutch, B springs, and tires on the back. Ever since then my car has been a lot slower. When it is at idle and I hit the gas, it hesitates and then revs up. My a/f gauge says I am running a lot richer than I usually...
