Im currently getting an 8.8 housing ready to put in my car. Im getting the tubes welded and putting TRZ spring perches on it for better spring alignment, I still need to order my IC brackets and arms but I recently thought of something else. Everyone is using Baseline's frame side upper control...

Picked up a th400 and it came with an unknown brand converter, I think it might be a custom built converter, "3800 stall" was written on the backside with a grease pen. transmission and converter came out of a good running low 11 second camaro, it was only removed to swap to a stick. With the...

I tested and tuned yesterday at NED. The weather was horrible, mid 80's (maybe higher) and very high humidity. Made 3 passes. 1st pass 60' 2.388 (spun hard) 1/8 8.886 1/4 13.324 mph 110.65 2nd pass. Shifted passed second into third, back to second then third 60' 2.054 (hooked a little...

The trans is a TH350, the shifter is a hurst quarter stick. Everything is adjusted as close as possible. In 1 the cable end slides right into the lever on the trans. In 2nd its pretty damn close, in 3rd you have to pull the lever just a tad. its gets progressively worse going into nuetral...

great video about different carb/intake setups on a 5.3 LS motor. Look around at the other videos they have, very informative. http://www.carjunkietv.com/watch-shows/suck-squeeze-bang-blow/GMPP-LS327-Carb-and-Intake-Test.html

On the carbed Ls1 'package' you buy from edelbrock it comes with a timing control and 6 pills. Does anyone know the specifications on each pill. I saw a chart once but cant find it anywhere. Im pretty sure they all peak out at 34* timing at WOT but i know they are all different at part throttle.

I'm using an alternator from an S10 (GM cs130) on my truck that doesn't use the stock wiring harness. Now I was going to run the big red wire on the plug to the stud on the back of the alternator. Then the black wire to a switched power source. I have heard that this is all you need to work...

I have a moroso fused switch panel and im going for the cleanest looking and shortest wires possible for my switch panel/relay board. I came up with this to try to keep the clutter down. Im not to crazy about running that much current to the switch, even though its not really going through it...

This may be a stupid question but how do you remove a dowel pin from the back of the block. I need to take one out of my spare motor for mine and i cant get it out. I tried vice grips but it started to gouge the pin. I dont have a torch to heat it up either. Anyone have any tips or tricks.

Has anyone used the Felpro fpp-1312 with an edelbrock carb. intake? The o-ring gaskets are a little torn up on my intake and i have a set of the felpro's here. I dont see why they wouldn't work if i just removed the o-ring gaskets. Anyone done it?

does anyone make an adapter plate for bolting a lsx up to a th350 (or any gen I bellhousing bolt pattern) ? Has anyone done it? What does it involve? I dont know much about these new motors, someone said it will actually bolt up but the converter will be an issue, is this true? Any input would...

In my '91 S10 the engine harness is untouched and in good condition. Whoever took the dash out of the truck cut some wires and I really dont feel like dealing with and sorting through other peoples mistakes and shortcuts. I dont want to have to go with a painless kit and rewire the entire truck...

OK, i have a feeling this might start a flame war but i want to hear opinions and facts. The Topic: Intake runners on a cylinder head and intake manifold (wet manifold)... polished smooth or left slightly 'dimpled' or rough my take on the subject (still learning myself here) Rough finish-...

i know everyone says stretch guages are best but i dont have one. I have heard of people using vasoline (what i used last time i pulled a few caps on a used motor and put them back on) and others use motor oil and i have heard of people installing them dry. whats everyones opinion and what do...

Was sitting around, looking at plug wires and kept seeing aftermarket wires advertised with 'only' 40ohms per foot and i think im over thinking this. -If the resistence goes down, there will be less of a load, creating a smaller voltage drop across the wire and allowing more current flow to...
