90W gear lube isn't rated the same as engine oil (look it up some time - there's SAE viscosity charts out there...) Anyhow - I've used the...
Get the transgo 'no yo yo' kit SK700 - that should cure the shift point problems in early transmissions. They're a "shift kit" like what most of...
If anyone needs help heading through the KC area I'll be around until Sat AM and home afterwards - (Ate 1 six) 5Ate2 -Thirty Thirteen
I'll agree with everyone that it was loaded too far forward - Here's a quick way to set tongue weight if you don't know how heavy the load is......
Also - If I remember right - on the TH350 - can't you see the front clutch pack from the pan... If I recall there's a "window" that you can see a...
Rule of thumb - atmospheric pressure is around 14.7 PSI - take an 8:1 engine and you should have a compression around 8x that number or 117 PSI....
For a 'right now' eco-friendly - I'd choose E85... Long run "after gas" - I'd choose Methanol or Ethanol on an open engine compartment and go...
I used the old Sherwin-Williams Tile Clad HS epoxy - it's held up real well - prep is the key I believe to a good coating. Clean it, etch it, and...
Just like everyone else says... Price talks.... I've been thinking about building one but if I could purchase a roller for not a whole lot more...
I've got a brand new SBF performance cam that I'll be donating - anyone from Kansas City care to take it down Friday as I won't be coming until...
That is the common placement of the sender as it measures water temps coming OUT of the engine (the flow is in on the lower hose and out on the...
if it's not the switch/sending uniit a couple things to try.... Swap the oil filter - there have been known to be bad ones on real rare...
Dang it - I was hoping it was an update too - was hoping he got over his gal, got his butt in gear and went on to bigger and better things and was...
There are lots of folks on here from the KC metro area... Just do a little searching for threads...
Going to be a hot one out there! Anyone know what time do the gates open?
Like Homespun said - they're probably some federal mogul product or another mass produced cam with an older "OK" ramp profile (read not the...
That device is nothing more than a cell phone with the E911 mandated GPS functionality built in - you're basicly buying a cheap phone and access...
GO with a higher stall than you're thinking of in a light car with a ton of torque - something in the 28-3K range.. I've run an ATI and a TCI...
What stall you running in the C4? If it's a little looser than stock then go with a performer RPM or Weiand stealth is a good choice. Bolt...
The GT40P "explorer" heads will be a little small for a high performance 351, but matched with the right cam and a good intake would make a great...
I've seen this for at least 1.5 years... Might have been even longer.. It was up for sale on other places besides eBay before being put on...
Do you have the full cam card from the cam - if so post up specs. Sounds a little bit low to me but not awfully bad - I would have expected...
the same thing can be said if the 351 - go with a stroker kit - 408, 414, 427 and even 454 cubes from your little 351... 427 ccubes in a light...

Those wheels had to have taken a ton of work...
