Do you know the whereabouts? I'm looking at a car tomorrow that I'm told is this one.
[ATTACH] This is supposedly 1965 somewhere in Cali. Anybody recognize it?
We did but it was raining pretty heavy. Me and Heath were there of course with the GTO and Belair. A guy brought a late model Chevy truck lowrider...
I pulled a pretty dumb stunt yesterday. Been customizing a bicycle for my daughter. Went to spread some spot filler on it. Had a small tube of the...
Things may get even more heated this time around. There should be a 550hp GMC Safari Van attending and he may be bringing friends with some heavy...
Ring and pinion teeth with excessive wear will cause a vibration like you describe. One of my galaxies did it at the same speeds as yours. The...
Prime I owe you an apology. It was wrong of me to insult you like I did. I'm not obligated to think you know beans about engines, nor you me. You...
prime obviously didn't understand where my last post was directed
I'm offering one more bit of advice to this thread then I'm done with it. I once read this on a sign and it must have been written by a wise...
This guy sounds pretty bright. Think I might like to attend his distributor class. Check out his website.
Probably get some arguing over this but I'll throw it out there anyway. If it starts easy with the 18 initial, and doesn't ping when you tip into...
I liked the station if you did. We can always run back and forth if anyone needs to do any prep work for the "festivities". The astros look...
I've used one set on a 383 we built. OK for the money. I agree with the other guys that they're OK for something mild but for big power try...
Here's what $1400 sounds like on the dyno. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUXrLuGTkoA
It's not a traditional car only deal at all. We've got a little bit of everything showing up. Totally unorganized and no rules is our theme. Come...
Not gonna fill a page with engine advice cause it looks like you're getting plenty. But as a guy whose had his share of 63s I'll throw out this...
Gonna have to make the next on Sept 18. I think we'll set it for the 3rd Saturday from here out. We'll probably do one in Oct and then start again...
Hold off on the 4th. We may have to bump this next one back a couple weeks. I'll get some more info posted ASAP.
I don't want to diminish your breakfast get togethers, but they don't really relate to what we're shooting for here. Getting the rods out and...
Lemont, IL..... You couldn't be more than 4 hrs up the road. Plenty close enough. Get that Olds out on the road and stretch it's legs. And if...
Looking like we might try this again the first weekend in September. I'll keep you all updated. Come try this out. The last one was a ball.
I feel a shootout coming on. Lets build one of each, haul em to the shop and throw em on the dyno. We'll break out the grill and make it one big...
Not valid? How can real actual uncorrected numbers be not valid? That's the number it's making in the real air it's really pumping. I'm saying...
Sounds like a sweet power plant. I'd have to see it on a dyno to buy that it's making 400hp with the stock 8:2 to 1 slugs laying .120 in the hole...
SSTANG06, you going to SAM?
Listen to this guy. He's a smart one. Nice point about wanting the least timing possible. I'm amazed at how many people think the more the better....
I must admit the GTO vs. 5.0 was one of the cooler street brawls I've seen. Not exactly an even match up but watching the stang's head start...
Here ya go. These are just a few of the cars coming and going. Just posting some of the stuff that kinda fits here. And I threw in the pocket bike...
Well, my computer is giving me some fits so I'll post the pics soon.
Last nights cruise was a friggin blast! Not much traditional stuff this time but we definitely recreated that small town cruising vibe we were...
