V-drive, right? Do you actually pull skiers? We used to ski behind a 455 Olds jet boat back in the late 70s, early 60s. Probably NOTHING like...
Thanks for all the info! What the guys with the boats say to use is Permatex 3D Aviation Form-A-Gasket, which is essentially a thread sealant....
I have used permatex anti-seize, on ALL of my projects, but some boat guys are saying it is going to make the problem worse, faster. Personally,...
Yes, many of them are over-sized to fit on the taillight panel without going over the edges of the raised part. That said, I use this one, and...
Not strictly a Mav/Com question, but a general technical question, and likely applicable for several combinations of bi-metallic contact...
For $2600 or so, you could do a low-rise charger with a single carb. But I agree, Mavs look GREAT with a huge 6-71 or 8-71 sticking out the hood,...
Currently, I have long-tube headers, 2-1/2" all the way out to the flows and out, dumping at axle. The only points on the car where they are...
I loved the sidepipes. Only got rid of them because it was going to be difficult to plumb them with long-tube headers. Sounded really nice, and...
Before I add anything, I will be playing around with it a little, and experimenting. You all know me. I think I will start by shoving red...
What exactly are "turbo" mufflers? If I walk into O'Reilly, what brand/model am I asking for?
Here is a short one from inside at cruising speed with the drone from inside the car. It is even worse in real life. [media]
Yup, that is drone. It sounds/feels like a drivetrain vibration that is about to tear out your u-joints. In fact, before I verified that it was...
Hmmm. I only had problems with the pushrods on my exhaust valves, because my cam has a reduced base circle on exhaust only. Lash caps fixed that....
I had a pair of glasspacks two setups ago, and they sounded nice, exiting in front of the rear wheels. There was just a touch of drone, sounded...
I need to disagree, just from experience. I slapped them on and it was a "whole nuther engine!" I had them milled .010 just to make sure they...
Getting older--Yep. Sounds about right. I turned 40 this summer, and this last 50 mile trip was just shy of unbearable. The wife was really...
Yep, bringing this back up AGAIN! Would an X-pipe reduce the drone? H-pipe just moved the drone to different rpm. I LOVE the flowmaster...
Good flowing heads. Swap the springs, or put in a roller cam. Still make sure springs match the cam and lift.
Aw, man! I keep my hood closed because that MSD has so much nasty wiring attached to it. I still need to find a way to hide all that crap.
It isn't an internal combustion engine, so there isn't any "burning" going on to oxidize it or add any carbon deposits to it. There isn't even a...
