I just replaced my alternator with an optima lifetime 120 amp alternator from oreilly's and it charges about 13.5-13.7 but when I turn on the ac it barely gets over 12 volts. It says ac delco on the back of the alternator but just doesn't perform like I think it should. Should I go with a...

The other day I went to drive my car and all of the sudden the speedo was not working. It's in the tranny securely and seems to be connected under the dash. Any ideas?

The car has not been running right lately and we hooked up the turbolink and it showed 7 trouble codes. codes: 34 42 44 52 54 55 53 According to Turbolink, all the codes could be ECM related. I have a modded ECM for 72 lb. injectors with a maxeffort 16 pos PROM. The prom is...

Does anyone know the size of the bolt that attaches the ac lines to the compressor? I'm trying to get my ac blowing cold again and can't find that bolt. Hopefully someone here will know the size so I can go match one up. Thanks

I just blew out my third wheel cylinder on the drivers rear last night. This has all happened within the last 2 days after thorough examination of the brake system I think the problem lies in the proportioning valve giving too much pressure to the rear brakes. I noticed that the button on the...

Well the moment I've been waiting for since January finally came tonight when we started the new motor up. Everything went good with the exception of the car not maintaining fuel pressure. Pressure would hold constant for a few seconds and then immediately fall off causing the car to die...

It crossed my mind the other day that there are several variables about my new motor/turbo combo that might not be so friendly to my hood pad insulator. First of all I am using both HRPartsNStuff poly motor mounts which will raise the motor slightly. Secondly my new turbo(CPT70 Q-trim) is...

Does anyone know of anywhere that has a modified ECM in stock that I might be able to buy and have shipped right away? Do any of you guys have one for sale? I need to have the car pretty much together by the end of the weekend and dont have the modded ecm. Thanks!

Any of you guys here go to Navasota dragway? I used to go at least once a month and run on Wednesday nights till about 11:00 or even 12:00 sometimes. New motors gonna be in the car in 2 weeks so as soon as I get everything running good I'll be out at old Nasty every chance I get. I go to...

Who here runs the fastest times with a straight forward alky kit like the SMC? I'm not talking about the guys who run 25 nozzles and inject more alcohol than fuel either;) .

I was at Rankin road in Houston Saturday night looking for a money race or two. A guy approached me in a pewter Camaro SS with Cam/Heads, headers, 6 spd, and possibly other mods. He wanterace for $100 but all I had on me was $40 so we agreed to race if I gave him the move. By the time it was...

Last night a fellow board member BoostNasty wanted to race my car for $2 so I told him I would give him 5 cars and the move just like the LS1 2 weeks ago. Needless to say I caught him and flew by him hard. I did feel guilty and cannibalistic afterwards however:D Are you reading this Jeff???

http://users2.ev1.net/~mcgough/racingvideos.htm This guy says he runs high 12's, race was from a 50 roll. Click the link that says "me vs. a TTA" Enjoy:D

Last night I was at the local street races here in Houston when a guy in a 2000 white z-28 with a "spoiled brats racing" sticker on the back windshield wanted to race me. He looked over my car and said he wanted 5 car lengths and the move. I agreed and we raced for $60. As soon as he flinches...
