    2012 Prediction......I hope they are wrong

    I put him in the same class as all of those 'spirit talkers'. "Hmmm, I see you were very sad in the past...you lost a parent (as he gazes on at the grey haired 55 yr old) Did their name start with a G? " No...perhaps the person next to you...no, ok..somebody here lose a parent that the first...

    oiling issues thread

    You would have to design it on a flow bench, air has a mind of its own ;) Just ask any blonde :D It would be easier to go with a Hogan manifold or retro fit a Gen II. I would guess 90% of the folks on here shouldnt have to even worry about #3 running lean. The rest can compensate with A/F...

    Ilmore v-10 engines how'd they do it?

    The engine was put together right and they are using a different intake manifold ;)

    oiling issues thread

    IMO, #3 is due to intake manifold design. Improving oiling should be on your list of mods if you are adding significant HP by any means. Of course its usually addressed last...like improving the brakes on your old hot rod....After those drums fail at 120mph, you realize..hmm, guess I should...

    Built Motor with Paxton Results

    Boost is very important as it relates to volumetric efficiency as well as potential fuel density based on expansion. Even with the off the shelf Novi you could increase HP significantly if you designed an intake with mathmatically calculated reduction in volume to the point of...

    BBK Throttle Body Dyno Results.....Amazing

    It looks nice and improves throttle response ;) I need to pick up a .1 in the 1/4 so went back to the stocker.

    BBK Throttle Body Dyno Results.....Amazing

    Sounds like a nice mod to go along with the intake ;) I lost 10rwhp and 15ft lbs when I installed a single blade TB. After about a dozen dyno runs, gave up on trying to get that power back. It looks like these engines are very sensitive to flow rates. I would geuss my ported heads and cam...

    X-Metal Gen 4 Shifter gripes and issues

    Yes, missing second has been reported in the past. Also, popping out of second being an issue. I havent had that problem in a long time, I believe its exacerbated by the stock master/slave. I have trouble with reverse from time to time...will have to try grinding down the ball as you mention.

    few vids from today

    16lbs isnt bad at all on those slicks....I run 14 in mine and it does get a little squirly over 110 but nothing too scary.

    Advice on home theater

    Never buy Bose unless you want to pay at least twice what you should for the sound quality. Denon makes decent receivers although I have always been a Marantz fan ;) I am running 5.1: Marantz SR9600 NHT 2.1 towers (15 years old and still rockin!) NHT twin 10" subs NHT center and...

    HP/Torque estimate on mods???

    Patrick is spot as as usual ;) All highflow cat trucks (including my own) sound better than catless set ups...IMO. In addition, I would bet you will gain more torque by having the HF cats vs catless.

    30X14X16 slicks fittment?

    Those M&H's hook nice :D I was able to pull a 1.75 60' and I only hit the track a couple of times a year. I am sure I could get in the 1.60's with some practice on a decent track. Wear a painters mask while you are shaving the calipers..as well as the goggles.... Lay out some cardboard...

    HP/Torque estimate on mods???

    Intake: K&N drop-in or JMB CAI - 5rwhp 170 degree thermostat - some minor potential real world gain but negligable. Bassani short tube headers - 15-20rwhp 10-15ft lbs Bassani cat-back exhaust - 10-15rwhp 10-15ft lbs mid pipes/high flow cats/JMB mid pipes -20-25rwhp - 25-30ftlbs...
