    Best wax for black?

    I like to use a 3 step process , first to clean I use Mothers spray with clay, second to polish I use Meguairs #7 and third to wax I use Meguairs Gold Class or Liquid Glass . I have tried quite a few polishes and like the #7 the best but have had success with 3m products as well. Liquid glass is...

    What fans are u guys using with front mounts?

    I run the dual fan setup with a Dequick front mount along with an aluminum radiator, however the radiator was a much better upgrade than the fans. Cruising and racing on a summer night with the stock radiator the dual fans would run for a long time in the garage after shutdown, with the after...

    Need drag radial advice

    I would run the 275/50-15 which are the same height as the 235 but each tire is almost 2 inch's wider. I have always ran the BFG's for drag radials and Mickey's for sliks just do not be afraid to run the air pressure in the low teens.

    Which vendor carries the Hotchkis front sway bar?

    I run the Hotchkis and am very happy with it along with the HR rear bar. IMO the HR bar made a bigger difference than the Hotchkis for handling and so did the QA1 shocks, but the Hotchkis is far better than stock. Not familiar with the 1le. Bought the Hotchkis from Aggressive.

    what gear to heat your slicks up in

    Mine did that for years with a 3000 and a 3400 converter with numerous chips than when I installed a turbo tweek chip and it stopped.:confused: I have a th400 and my trans builder and others here have said to finish your burnout in 3rd gear to limit stress.

    How do you calculate slippage?

    So would that make the amount of tci calculated converter slippage increase about the same percentage as the tire growth using the 28" tire ? Basically what I am asking is your 28" tire now becomes a 29.4" tire at 145 mph ? This info is very important to me as I am in the market for a new...

    Line lock or trans brake?

    I am not sure what the percent is but lets say when you apply your brakes 70% is applied to the front and 30% applied to the rear. Well I have a unit on my car that reverses that when you hold a button switch down. It works good, I had it on a telephone style cord so it could be thrown down...

    Rear end question

    I have had 2 GN's and a 85 442 and they all did this but the additive helped tremendously. The 442 did it real bad from day one, so since there is a difference from car to car maybe it can be eliminated.

    TH400 Swap Questions

    I changed first gear in my th400 to match the stock first gear of the th200. The only thing I would do different is to go with an internal trans brake as mine does not always work do to the heat.

    Sway bar question

    I suggest going with the HRpartsnstuff bar and it will be the last time you change, but if you do not want to spend the money the ATR bar works well. My car is set up like a Pro Touring car and both bars made the car handle very nice and improved 60fts as well. However make no mistake the HR bar...

    The website states a 24 month warranty free from defects in material and workmanship. Would that not be a workmanship problem ? This is my biggest fear that it is not right the first time. I have a converter already like that not right the first or second time, and they want me to pay for the...
