Thanks much Mike! I was actually just searching around the site to get a more definitive answer and ended up even more confused than before I...
Hi guys.. quick question. Will clear colored lenses from the 74-75 model grill lights fit my 71 GT's grill light housings and bezels? I would...
I hear you, Chip. But I'm guessing mileage wasn't Rusty's main motivation for stuffing that bigger stroker in there in the first place....
Lol.. I'd like to rescind my previous remark as I now stand corrected. Higher torque and extra torque multiplication factor changes everything.
You know the old rule when it comes to gears, Rusty. If it can't make em' go fast?.. then just make em' go quicker! Always a tradeoff without...
Wouldn't have even been necessary if they'd have reduced the number of potential build combinations for each model from 857 per model.. down to...
ooohhh.. aaahhhh.. saaa..weeettt! :bouncy: Be sure to take care of that rust right away.. Rusty. See what I did there? :dizzy: Looking...

^^^^^ I agree with Stuart. I've blown the rings out of marginally sealed engines by pushing cylinder pressure too far beyond their capabilities...
Very sorry to hear that. We'll just take it slow so you can absorb and learn and work at your own pace. Was going to ask for more spec's but the...
You're not alone. I see tons of less than optimized tunes and have fixed or helped fix many. I too remember getting my curves done on machines...
Didn't take offense at all. Actually, I was trying not to offend you! Some people get damned sensitive about their hard earned car building...
Are you running an aftermarket alt mount? If you were to use the oem style alt mount setup shown in shorty's pic above.. it would likely create...
You know what they say, Jeff.. no good deed goes unpunished. :slap: JK.. gotta start somewhere. :tiphat:
