Went to the soggy M8 event at Stanton MI today. Had to run 1/8th mile as the track was still "damp" at the far end. Anyway, I ran a 7.18 @ 96mph what would be a good estimate for 1/4 mile et? Also knocked off a 1.518 60':eek: The stock rear end and axles wont take too much of that.

OK.. what does A/R mean on a turbo as in .63 a/r or .83a/r? Been messing with this car for nearly three years and i have never learned the meaning!

An Oklahoma federal judge ruled today that the FTC had overstepped its bounds by enacting the do not call list law. So now the Oct 1 start date has been postponed. For how long? Who knows. I guess the fact that 60 million people signed up for it has no bearing. Federal judges know what's best...

Hi GUys..Last night at the track the car started surging and bucking in 3rd. I'm running straight c-16 and have about 200-250 street and about 10 passes at the track miles on cr42ts plugs. I took them out this morning and they dont APPEAR to be fouled, nice tan color with a little build up on...

Went to the strip today and on the return road I noticed the FP was 50lbs, instead of 42-43 with the vac line on. When i tried to adjust it down it wouldnt change no matter how far i backed the adjustment off. I managed to get it home but the fp was jumping around between 40-50 lbs the whole...

We all know there is a certain amount of inefficency in a non-locked torque converter, but does the amount of torque the engine makes affect how much? Is the slip always the same at all rpm and power levels? Can a converter exhibit 90% efficiency in a 300 hp motor, and 95% in a 600 hp motor...

I have a 16' utility trailer that i am going to use for my car. Currently, there are no D-rings on it. How many are there on a regular car hauler and what are the points on the car to hook the chains/slings to? I have 2 chain pull downs, a 5' length of chain with a hook on each end, and 4 nylon...

I bought a lot of chris's parts when I attempted my own trans rebuid (bad move) chris sent the parts i ordered and even threw in a few i didn't! I made many phone calls to him and...

Does wheelspin make DS record crazy HP/torque readings? Made some sample recordings on street tires and there was a lot of wheelspin:D Hp/torque was WAY too high (over 800!!)LOL thanks

Installed DS this morning in about 1.5 hrs total. That ribbon cable is really touchy, I made a styrofoam spacer as suggested by BobbyBuick, to prevent the cable from shoving on too far. This is really a good tip and i think its essential! The spacer sits between the chip socket and the end of...

Read on Conleys website, that low imp injectors #55 & up have been run with a stock ECM, as long as the fuse for the injectors is upgraded to 20 amps. Whats the downside? does this really work or is it a hack that will burn up the ecm? Just curious. Thanks

I have seen Gn's running with radials on the front while running slicks. How is the handling on the top end while drag racing? The sticker on the slick says not to run radials with these tires. I know we're just talking about going in a straight line here,but I just want to know what to expect...
