    Boostane shots

    This is off subject and I have used Torco and Octainium with good results, but to see what good gasoline feels like, buy a can of VP or Sunoco, 94 octane. I bought a can of leaded and ran some in my small engines. Results across the board, faster starting, much better running. Did not get...

    They will run it, until it starts pumping. Too much labor involved.

    Who Offers Lower Intake Porting Services?

    Is extrude hone still an option and what does it cost. My 99 Cobra had the replacement extrude hone intake installed by Ford dealers. It is some slick surface.

    Spring rate for 12 inch front coil overs on a 3000ish lb car no driver

    Although you are using spring rate to achieve a specific ride height, they are totally separate functions. The compression rate and ride are spring rate results. Ride height is the length of the spring and or spacers. If your coil overs are adjustable use that for rebound and compression in...

    Coyote swap, remote mount oil filter?

    Will a short filter solve the issue? The Coyote installs on Cobra kit cars, require the short filter. I had to remove the sandwich oil cooler that came on my Aluminator crate engine. I do not have the short filter part number, but it comes in most common brands.

    Gen 1 Aluminator ?

    With the compression ratio and lack of hood space, a supercharger is not feasible. I do envy those push rod engines low end tq. I would have to do rolling starts to not get blistered by those stroker small blocks.

    Boostane shots

    Read the label on VP Octanium and see what you think. No experience, whether it leaves the orange frost. I run it in all my 93 octane tunes. On engines that have knock sensors, it prevents knock that pulls ignition timing. VP makes some premium canned fuel, I would think their additives...

    Gen 1 Aluminator ?

    I put a new crate engine, Gen 1 Aluminator in a F5 Cobra kit. I put a Lund tune in the car, after driving, data logging and sending the info to Lund. The car runs OK, but has very weak throttle tip in performance. The engine is soft until 2800 to 3000 rpm. It then smooths out and runs very...

    NWS Pics that make you :lol: every time you see them NWS

    While sitting in the waiting room, as my wife was having cataract surgery. I decided to try the coffee machine for a cup. It took credit card only and was Star Bucks brand. What the heck, I needed some coffee. No receipt and the coffee was dirt strong. When the credit card bill came, $22.00...
