    critique my build plans (long)

    Seems like the interwebs always says not to mess with cams and/or porting heads unless looking for 600-700+ to the wheels. The exception being swapping to the 98 intakes for the extra 15-20 HP gain; which is usually only recommended when already going into the motor... This setup doesn't seem...

    Already had the cooling mod, I made sure he knows to swap it to the new heads. I would love some electric cutouts rigged to open at WOT! Not much on the eye candy, but it cleans up nice. Got the blue cam covers with clear powdered Powered by Ford coil covers. The IC tubing is powdered a...

    Hey, RacerX, do you recall which flexplate you posted a pic of showing a difference in depth in relation to the stocker? Do you know if that difference caused an issue? Thanks!

    If that one don't fit right with misaligned bolt holes and such, there may be another option from B&M. First I called B&M and they couldn't tell the specs of the unit and that it was discontinued. There are, however, quite a few online sources that claim they have it in stock. Then I called...

    Thanks for the inputs! So what is it about the KB BAP that might be an issue? It was already installed in the car with some decent gauge wire to battery and a relay... As for maching the IW balancer, you can send it back to the manufacturer for that same service. The shop here says he can do...

    Ok, I found what I hope is the right one on amazon. The PAX units are made by PRW from what I found around the boards. So PRW 1828111 should equal PAX28111 I ordered this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004L2UM2Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I'll report back if it fits...

    Stock converter rework

    No sir, I have not driven a car with 3000-3500 stall, I really wish I had as to have made a more informed decision. You may have seen my other thread where I have an unplanned engine rebuild and such going on, as well as a tranny rebuild. I wasn't about to rebuild the tranny and put the old...

    Stock converter rework

    Are you saying you don't think the rebuilt unit would be of good quality, or are you saying there would not be enough performance gain?

    I need an 8 bolt flexplate for our stock converter. I have searched quite a bit on the flexplates, but I am still not sure what I need. I have seen some threads where some flexplates had a different depth, others where the bolts holes didn't correctly line up on the crank, and others that...

    Stock converter rework

    Thought I'd share what went on when I tried to order a converter from PTC in Florence Alabama. I believe PTC is the converter MO's usually recommends, and the shop working on my car also highly recommended PTC. I have personally used PTC for a few converters over the years, and with my...

    New intercooler?

    Trying to decide if the intercooler upgrade is necessary. At 10-12 lbs I didn't really seem to have real bad IATs. The shop is thinking 15-17 lbs with cams and an 18% OD. I'm hoping for 15 because I'm not sure I'm comfortable with more than that. Actually we've discussed If it ends up too...
