I got a set of these mud flaps yesterday from a friend of mine. They're killer and will protect the quarter panel. I've tried to make generic flaps fit around the tail pipe and it always looks like sh$t. These things just slide on the car and that's it. The rubber grips the inner fender well...

One of my coil spring air bags is leaking so I need to either replace it or go with some type of air shock. I'm running 15x10's with 275's so if I hit a good bump I'll rub. With 8 psi in the bags I don't. Did a search for bags and didn't find anything? I could go air shocks but not a huge...

I'm just getting around to installing my SMG with a dual gauge pod for the A pillar. I bought one from GBody parts. I'm either doing something really wrong or this thing is very badly designed. It's close to the original in shape other than it goes over the upper window trim instead of...

For those who don't have the PL software I'm hitting 150 degree's at the end of a run in 80 degree weather. It would seem to me my sensor must have an issue??

Just got my motor back in along with a new Stage 3 trans. I've been babying the car for a while but after I re-torqued the heads Sat and had a few miles on the trans I decided to run it through the gears. As soon as I hit 5200 rpm the motor cut's out like it's hitting the rev limiter. Mine is...

I'm ready to do a final TQ after a few heat cycles. I have studs with Felpro's and TA aluminum heads. I've read 80ft pds and 85ft pds? Suggestions?

Finally got the motor back in and went for a ride this morning. I noticed my Alky light isn't on. When I hit the test button the red light comes on but the pump won't go. Any ideas where to start? Worked fine last fall and I winterized the system too.

I'm installing my new tranny and it didn't come with the speedo gear set up so I'm trying to use my old one but I can't get it out of the old transmission. Is there a trick to getting that thing out?

I'm in the middle of installing my heads with studs and my TQ wrench is broke. It's Sunday and I don't have anyone I can borrow one from. I've already installed the studs with Loctitie 567, mounted the heads and washers and nuts. My question is can I let it sit until tomorrow or should I go...

I either need to re-chrome my factory rims or go aftermarket. I'm running a widened 15x10 in the rear (which are real nice) and stock front rims that need re-chromed. I like the look of the factory wheels but I can't find a nice looking 15" front tire to match my Nitto 555r's and it's bugging...

I'm getting ready to start re-assembly and was just curious what the general consensus was about using a larger oil pan. I can't imagine down side but I don't see many guy's using them. I run 7 or 8 quart oil pans on my other 2 performance motors and I guess I change the oil about as often as...

Looking to order head studs and noticed there is a different stud kit for the GN1 heads. Just want to make sure I order the right studs for my application. I have the TA Aluminum heads.

I need some EFI help and I figured this forum would have the most experience. This isn't my GN but my 78 Trans Am. I bought a throttle body EFI kit for my T/A I also bought a Spectra bolt in fuel tank with high pressure fuel pump already installed. Nice and easy install. Here's my problem...

I'm putting my motor back together in a week or so and I got to talking with a friend of mine this morning about head studs or bolts. He suggested I use studs for better clamping or more accurate TQ. He also mentioned that since I need to re-tq the heads I would disturb the sealant on the head...

I pulled my motor this spring to fix the cometics leaking oil. I'm going back through my calculations to make sure I get the right head gasket thickness. I do not want to go back to cometics. I don't want to risk them not sealing again. I'm tired of wrenching. I'm considering the Felpro...

This is the 3rd year in a row I've pulled this motor. Year 1 motor ate itself up. It happens, previous owner detonated the shit out of it. Year 2 had a stroker 109 built for it. Lifted the heads the first time I put my foot to the floor. Motor had too much compression for the tune and fuel...

I bought a Hallman Pro boost controller and had a chance to use it yesterday. I have the waste gate set at about 1/8 pull and have the boost set at 21 psi. If I roll in to it in 3rd gear I get 21 psi and if I stab it in a lower gear it spikes to 24 ish. Not sure if it would hang it at 24 psi...

I'm pulling the motor again this winter to deal with my cometics leaking oil. Tired of the mess. I had the car on the lift yesterday and noticed my crank seal is leaking too. Here's what's going through my head right now and you guy's tell me what you think. My blocks been line honed twice...

Finally got the car to the track after 2 years. I had a good time but not too impressed with the combo at this point but I'll get there. First pass was 0 boost off the line at a 2.0 60 and 7.9 at 90 mph. I'm using old slicks but hooking ok just no boost. 2nd pass I tried to spool it at the...

I plan to take my car to an 1/8th mile track this weekend for the first time. I've been doing some tuning with the SD2 and not seeing any real KR. Sometimes I get a .4 or .5 blip at higher rpms. Not sure why but it's intermittent. I was thinking about dumping in a few gallons of 110 before I...
