I'm doing body and paint on an 84 WH1. I am in need of a good pair of doors without the rott on the bottom edge like my current pair. I don't necessarily need the glass or mirrors. I also need floor pans in the area of the foot wells on both pass and driver side. Let me know what you...

I've had these parts in storage awaiting a day when I'd build another 3.8 turbo motor. A move as forced me to get rid of these items. My loss your chance to stock up. Set of 6 2 dot connecting Rods $30 3.8 Front Cover w/ oil pump $30 -used cam button with bearing so no wear there...

Would there be any ill effect from C02 in the combustion chamber? If not why couldn't you simply direct the cold air spray directly at a K&N cone filter which would simulate the cold winter temps that aid our cars so well.

Aiming the cold discharge at the turbo compressor housing would yield a result equal to anywhere else. The aluminum would conduct the cooler temperature to the air charge I should think. Who knows what the side effects may be on the turbo, bearings, etc. Shouldn't be too difficult...

Great!!! Well I'm happy for you but my problem and therefore my question remains. Anyone have this problem?

Are you running it with a 2.5 inch DP as well?

I picked up a pass. Poston header awhile back and am finally putting it in. The gent I bought it from told me it was a tight fit and in his haste dented his DP to make it work. It is definetly tight I learned quickly and went to grinding down the back side of the up-pipe flange where is...

This guy claims to be selling a GN intake from somewhere between 85-89 ;) hehe Looks to be a FWD SFI 3.8 motor. Am I right? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34198&item=2492741407&rd=1

I checked some lines out at the local shop. They have size 4 and 6. I think I can get away with the size 4 that is sold for running lines to mechanical oil gauges. I'm wondering if I can't just use the ends of the existing line pluged into the flexible hose fastened with Fuel line clamps...

Basically there are heat barriers and heat dispersant coatings out there. The ceramic coating is a barrier. On exhaust pipes it will keep the heat in. I think it's widely known that a ceramic coating is best for exhaust components. I don't think that it would be the best idea to do a...

I was just putting the top back on my hot air motor and after nearly completeing it I realized that I hadn't routed the stock oil line to the turbo under the fuel rail and around a bracket properly. Being lazy as usuall I got to thinking about just running a flexible oil line that I could...

A buddy recently coated all his exhaust pipes, headers and turbo elbow and housing on his Hot Air. I also had the turbo pieces done. My understanding is that it will hold the heat in and help the turbo spool with the added head. Also it will reduce engine compartment temps and therefore...

I've been keeping up with you guys with each post. Sounds like you've had some discouraging things along the way unrelated to the actual manifold modifiations. Keep up the hard work. You can count me in for one once you get to producing one.

I wouldn't rule out an 84-85 or hot air car completely. They can be had more cheaply if your on a budget and still offer the great driveability and fun of an intercooled car. You will not make a hot air car run into the 11's and low 12's aren't easy but they are very upgradeable. Intercooled...

I C how they can keep the bell lined up with the injector. I figured they helped keep then injector in place but figured that with the fuel rail bolted down tight the injector would stay tightly wedged between manifold and rail. Thanks for the replies. Here's another question that came to...

Thanks for the reply. However I'm not speaking of the clips on the injector harness plugs I'm speaking of the circular onces that clip around the body of the injector. What do these do and or prevent?

I just swapped out my injectors and am having trouble putting the metal clips that clip around the injector back on to the injectors. What do these do? Are they necessary to put back on?

Can anyone else contribute here?

Yeah those prices aren't bad. Here is a question to show my lack of knowledge on these. What is the benefit of the smaller diameter converters? It seems the same type in a smaller size jumps up almost double in price.

Well swapping to lock up is in the books for sure. I just want to be sure that until then I'll be fine driving highway speeds for extended periods of time. You noticed an 8 degree temp difference between being locked up and not. That doesn't seem bad. I fear I will miss added the fuel...
