    LT1 Corvette question...............

    My sister-in-law has a bone stock '95 Corvette 6 speed with under 11k on it. It's a fun little car, can slowly walk away from my 928 from a roll. My butt says it's a low 14 second car. Just wondering what would be involved to give it enough beans to trap 110 or so in the quarter.

    Speaking of blow-through carbed turbos....

    How about a 10 second, twin turbo, carbed bulletnose Studebaker? And, no Chevy or Ford engine in Fozzie Bear's Study, but an actual Studebaker engine. http://stude.com/Ted/history.htm

    Need comment on emission results.....

    I took my car for the NJ state inspection this morning. I have 55lb. injectors, Testa chip, and the cat that came with the Houston downpipe. Now, I literally get a headache from the exhaust fumes if I drive my car for a long time, so I thought it would fail for sure. When the test guy had my...

    REAL good headphones..........

    Anyone here know about some good "cans"? I currently have the Sony MDR-V600. I bought these about 5 years back after my then puppy chewed up my Beyer 911s. For the money, the Sonys are fine, but just don't compare to the Beyers. I remember reading some real good things about Grado 'phones a...

    "Go-Ball" remote control ball, circa '85???

    Does anyone remember this damn thing???? It was, basically, a radio controlled ball. About 9 inches in diameter, came in a bright orange or green color, and was controlled by a twin stick transmitter. My brother had a green one in 1985. Can't find any mention of it anywhere, even Ebay...

    Engine swap for a 1984 Pontiac....

    One of my daily drivers is a 1984 Pontiac Parisienne, basically a Caprice. It has over 170K miles on it, but is rust free (it was my grandpa's car and garaged in Florida until 1999 when he passed and left it to me), and still a comfortable boat. The 305 Chevy (rated at about 140 HP and 240...

    These racing videos, fast cars, and young guys....

    These "street racing" videos on the internet.... When I was young I admit I did a lot of stupid stuff with my cars that could have killed not only me, but other innocent people. But what really scares me is seeing these videos with very powerful cars on public streets. During my "stupid"...

    Sway bar bolt thread size???

    One of the bolt holes for mounting the sway bar "U" bracket is stripped. Does anyone know the thread size, and would using a "Heli-Coil" repair kit be strong enough? Thanks, Paul
